SEC Act of 2025

This bill, called the Stop Environmental Calculations Act of 2025, limits what climate information public companies must report. It says the SEC cannot force companies to share climate-related details unless that information is important to investors’ decisions. In short, climate disclosures would only be required if they are “material” to investors, and the SEC is blocked from requiring more than that.

Key points:

• Who is affected: Public companies (issuers), the SEC, and investors.
• What changes: The SEC may not require climate-related disclosures that are not material to investors; companies would share climate info only when it meaningfully affects investment decisions .
• What it means for you: Investors might see fewer standardized climate reports unless the information clearly affects a company’s financial outlook.
