Impactful Policy Frameworks
SEC Climate Disclosure Rule (2024)
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) finalized rules in March 2024 requiring public companies to disclose certain climate-related information in their annual reports and registration statements.
While primarily for public companies, this rule could indirectly influence venture capital due diligence on sustainability practices of portfolio companies, especially those eyeing future IPOs.
Proposed SEC Rule on Private Fund Advisers (2022/2023 discussions)
The SEC proposed new rules in 2022 (with ongoing discussions into 2023) to increase transparency and oversight for private fund advisers, including venture capital funds, regarding fees, expenses, and conflicts of interest.
These proposals aim to increase transparency and investor protection, potentially increasing compliance burdens and operational costs for venture capital firms like BGV.
CHIPS and Science Act (2022)
The CHIPS and Science Act, signed into law in August 2022, provides significant federal funding for domestic semiconductor manufacturing, research, and workforce development.
This act can stimulate investment and innovation in deep tech and hardware startups, creating new opportunities for VC firms focusing on 'Future of Work' technologies.
