The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has posted a notice regarding its operational status.
The SEC’s announcement states:
“Due to a lapse in appropriations, the SEC is currently operating in accordance with the agency’s plan for operating during a shutdown.
Effective Wednesday, October 1, 2025 and until further notice, the agency will have a very limited number of staff members available. The SEC has staff available to respond to emergency situations with a focus on the market integrity and investor protection components of our mission.
Our plan calls for the continuing operation of certain Commission systems, including EDGAR”.
