New Edition Of Authoritative Guide From CCH Details Legal Responsibilities Of Corporate Officers, Directors

(RIVERWOODS, ILL., September 30, 1999) – CCH INCORPORATED (CCH), a leading provider of business and regulatory law information has released the 1999 edition of Responsibilities of Corporate Officers and Directors Under Federal Securities Law, a helpful and authoritative guide to the legal environment confronting the top leadership of publicly held companies. The popular reference book provides a concise, current overview of corporate officers’ and directors’ responsibilities, as well as what they need to do to ensure they meet those responsibilities.

"From the Securities Act of 1933 through the present, 1999 Responsibilities of Corporate Officers and Directors Under Federal Securities Law identifies and offers practical guidance on principal provisions that affect corporate officers with respect to their roles in business activities," said CCH Business and Finance group marketing manager Sharon Kube.

New Edition Covers Current Concerns

The 1999 edition of this widely used volume includes a new chapter on Year 2000 compliance requirements, as well as updates on indemnification and insurance of directors and officers.

In addition, newly revised chapters reflect the current state of the law on individual liability in connection with a corporation's securities offerings. Specific discussions focus on the antifraud rule and securities litigation reform, proxy and reporting provisions, insider trading restrictions and registration-related liabilities. Issues relating to shareholder derivative actions, SEC enforcement, resale of restricted stock under Rule 144A and investment company directors also are covered.

1999 Responsibilities of Corporate Officers and Directors Under Federal Securities Law also examines state law requirements in connection with management's exercise of business judgement as well as state indemnification and insurance provisions. A finding list directs readers to CCH's Federal Securities Law Reports for the full text of cited statutes, rules, forms and interpretive releases.
