Last week, the Securities and Exchange Commission announced that effective October 1, 2015, filing fees that public companies and other issuers pay to register their securities with the Commission will be reduced to $100.70 per million dollars (from $116.20 per million dollars). The reduction applies to fees paid under Section 6(b) of the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 13(e) and 14(g) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which the SEC is required to annually adjust. According to the National Law Review, this year's decrease of approximately 13% is up from last year's 10% reduction of registration statement filing fees. This is obviously a nice trend that saves public companies money, which will hopefully continue annually.
