In the past year, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has set out its intensified financial reporting and disclosure enforcement efforts due to the dramatic rise of violations. In the fiscal years 2015 and 2016 alone, the SEC already charged more than 245 individuals and brought over 200 financial reporting and disclosure actions.

Considering the ever-evolving securities landscape, financial reporting will likely trail behind the pace of change. Thus, it is important for companies to remain updated with the recent and relevant reporting trends and developments to ward off potential liabilities and pressing implications.
