The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has directed all publicly-listed companies to disclose the impact of the coronavirus (COVID19) pandemic on their business operations alongside measures to mitigate risks.

In a notice dated March 12, the SEC mandated all listed companies to submit current reports (SEC Form 17-C) discussing the risks and impact of the COVID-19 outbreak not later than noon of March 16.
