Impactful Policy Frameworks
SEC Climate Disclosure Rule (2024)
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently finalized rules requiring public companies to disclose certain climate-related information, including greenhouse gas emissions and climate-related risks.
While primarily for public companies, this rule could influence reporting standards for impact-focused ventures seeking investment, potentially increasing transparency demands for redemptive businesses.
Nonprofit Revitalization Act (Varies by State, e.g., NY 2013)
Many states continually update their Nonprofit Revitalization Acts, which streamline governance, reporting, and fundraising requirements for non-profit organizations, aimed at increasing efficiency and accountability.
Updates to state-level nonprofit acts can simplify compliance for Praxis's nonprofit accelerator participants, potentially reducing administrative burden and allowing greater focus on mission delivery.
Proposed SEC Regulation for Investment Advisers on ESG (2022/Ongoing)
The SEC has proposed rules to enhance disclosures by investment advisers and investment companies about their environmental, social, and governance (ESG) practices, aiming to prevent 'greenwashing.'
This proposed regulation could increase scrutiny on impact-focused investment funds and philanthropists within Praxis's 'Capital Fellowship,' demanding clearer and more verifiable claims about 'values-aligned' or 'redemptive' investments.
