Corporate Partner Rajib Chanda was quoted in BoardIQ, a Financial Times news service, in an article titled “Deregulation May Give Boards Breathing Room in 2018,” which discusses how the new tax bill and the Securities and Exchange Commission’s renewed interest in trimming unnecessary director duties will affect the funds industry as a whole. While some directors worry that what they tell the SEC could be used against them, Rajib contends that directors should use this period to think about what types of oversight would be most useful and home in on specific areas depending on funds they oversee, so that they can facilitate regulatory improvements informed by actual on-the-ground experience.
