What this bill does
In plain words · AI-written from the official summaryExpands electronic delivery of investment documents
The SEC currently requires companies to send certain regulatory documents to investors in paper form. This bill asks the SEC to create new rules that would let companies send these documents to investors electronically instead. If investors prefer, they'd have the option to ask for paper copies. If the SEC doesn't finish writing these rules within a year, electronic delivery would be allowed automatically.
How it affects you
If you own stocks or invest in funds, this could change how you receive official documents from companies and investment firms. Instead of getting paper statements and disclosures in the mail, you might receive them by email or through online accounts. You'd be able to choose paper delivery if you prefer, but electronic delivery would likely become the standard option.
