Abstract: 

Historically, the United States federal securities laws have provided certain reporting and other accommodations to foreign private issuers, based on the fact that many of such issuers were subject to substantial regulation in their home country jurisdiction. This paper explores whether this position is evolving, such that foreign private issuers are becoming subject to increasingly robust regulation in the United States, along with some of the potential reasons for this regulatory evolution.
