Description

In this episode of the Pipeline podcast, Eddie Best, a partner at Willkie Farr & Gallagher LLP and co-chair of the firm's capital markets practice, discusses how the regulatory-friendly business environment is helping to open the IPO window. Best also examines how reducing reporting requirements and tailoring SEC rules to the size of companies can alleviate regulatory burdens for publicly traded companies. He points out that lowering compliance costs could encourage more companies to consider going public. However, while easing regulations might benefit the IPO landscape, Best notes that this must be balanced against investor protection and the need for transparency.
