Whatever Happened to Promoting Small Business Capital Formation?

Featuring: The Honorable Daniel M. Gallagher,  Commissioner, Securities and Exchange Commission

Hosted by, David Burton, Senior Fellow, Economic Policy,

Institute for Economic Freedom and Opportunity, The Heritage Foundation

In the Securities and Exchange Commission’s single-minded pursuit of Dodd-Frank Act rulemaking, we have let the needs of small businesses languish. In fact, we have done affirmative harm to small businesses.  There are a number of substantive steps that could be taken in the near to mid-term that would help alleviate this situation.  There are also some procedural changes the SEC could adopt that would bring the needs of entrepreneurship back to the forefront and help keep them there.

Join us as SEC Commissioner Daniel Gallagher examines these issues vital to small business capital formation, entrepreneurship and prosperity.
