On February 27, 2026, the Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final rules and form amendments to reflect the requirements of the recently enacted Holding Foreign Insiders Accountable (HFIA) Act. Directors and officers of foreign private issuers, or FPIs, with a class of equity securities registered under Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), must begin disclosing their holdings and transactions in the FPI’s equity securities on March 18, 2026.
