Corporate Counsel Yafit Cohn was quoted in a Dow Jones Institutional News article, “Acting SEC Chief Targets Pay Rule in Latest Effort to Ease Postcrisis Rules.” The article discussed SEC Commissioner Michael Piwowar’s decision to review a recent rule that requires companies to disclose the gap between chief executive and median employee pay. “This measure could be the SEC’s first step in attempting to postpone the effective date of the rule, in the hope that, in the interim, Congress will overturn the Dodd-Frank provision mandating the pay ratio requirement,” commented Yafit.
