Abstract: One of the purposes of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is to help ensure that secondary markets for publicly traded securities are fair and honest. One method by which the Exchange Act carries out this purpose is by requiring issuers that have securities listed on a national securities exchange to file periodic reports with the Commission. Issuer periodic reporting requirements are prescribed by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) pursuant to its authority in Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act. The Commission exercised its authority under Section 13(a) to establish a periodic reporting system for foreign governments and political subdivisions. The system is only applicable with respect to issuers with securities registered on national securities exchanges under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act. Form 18-K (17 CFR 249.318) is an annual report that is filed by foreign governments or political subdivisions of foreign governments that have securities that are listed on a national securities exchange. Form 18-K elicits disclosure of information concerning the listed securities of a foreign government or political subdivision of a foreign government, including external and internal debt, receipts and expenditures, foreign exchange controls, imports and exports, and balance of payments. A copy of the issuer’s latest annual budget is required to be filed as well. In requiring such information, Form 18-K helps to ensure that relevant information about the issuer is available and updated annually and can help to confirm the accuracy of previously disclosed information.
