The SEC’s Investor Advisory Committee will hold a public meeting Sept. 10 in Washington to discuss artificial intelligence in public markets and Regulation NMS rules.

The Securities and Exchange Commission said its Investor Advisory Committee will meet Sept. 10 at 10 a.m. ET at SEC headquarters in Washington, D.C. The meeting will also be webcast on the SEC website, according to the agency’s press release.

Background

The agency said the Investor Advisory Committee was established by statute and was authorized by Congress to submit findings and recommendations to the SEC. The full agenda is posted on the committee’s webpage, the release said.

Regulation National Market System, often called Regulation NMS, is a set of SEC rules that shape how stocks trade across U.S. exchanges and other venues. The commission did not announce any rule changes in the release.
