Ethical disclosure: A look at Reg FD
Article Abstract:
Regulation Fair Disclosure or Reg FD curbs selective disclosures by corporate boards and executives of material, nonpublic information to favorite research analysts or portfolio managers prior to giving information to the general public. Although, it does not require companies to disclose any material information in excess of the requirements of existing securities laws, the disclosure must be done publicly rather than to selected market participants.

It was found that misguided regulatory actions have weakened the ability of the accounting profession to regulate it by stripping out the norms and rules that restrained the commercial actions of auditors.
