WHEN Dell Inc. (NASDAQ: DELL) accidentally posted earnings information on the web prior to their official announcement last week, it was a little like seeing a poster child for online disclosure fall from grace.

BGC proves notice-and-access releases work

By Dominic Jones on February 27, 2009

BGC Partners, Inc. (NASDAQ: BGCP), a small-cap inter-dealer broker of financial instruments, yesterday announced its earnings using the notice-and-access news release method we have been advocating for several years.
Despite heated hand-waving by one big PR wire service — and some hand-wringing by ourselves — the earnings release process went off without a hitch, even if [...]

We don't need PR wires for Reg. FD

By Dominic Jones on March 27, 2007

By Dominic Jones
PROPONENTS of changing the information distribution requirements of Regulation Fair Disclosure (Reg. FD) say the world is ready to receive disclosures direct via companies’ websites rather than via intermediaries like news release distributors.

SEC Chairman Posts Comment on Blog

By Dominic Jones on November 6, 2006

By Dominic Jones (1 update)
YES I know it’s only been a few days since my last post about him, and no, I’m not changing this site’s name to ChrisCoxWatch.com. It’s just that the SEC chairman’s exploits on the technology front leave me little choice but to keep writing about them.
