Although the SEC’s Municipalities Continuing Disclosure Cooperation (MCDC) initiative purports to offer “favorable terms” to those borrowers and underwriters that take advantage of the program, this initiative presents some hidden risks and raises potentially significant legal issues. A team of highly experienced Foley practitioners will explore these matters from the borrower’s perspective, including the implications of the so-called “modified prisoner’s dilemma” created by the initiative.
Key takeaways that we will discuss include:
Key aspects of the SEC’s MCDC initiative
Potential pitfalls from MCDC participation
When borrowers should consider taking advantage of the MCDC initiative
