SEC says it has set FY 2027 exam priorities, but report not verified

The Securities and Exchange Commission said on Oct. 23, 2026, that its Division of Examinations had announced Fiscal Year 2027 examination priorities, but available SEC publications do not support a verified FY 2027 priorities report as of that date. The discrepancy matters because the annual priorities document is the agency’s main public guide to examination focus areas for the coming year. In its Oct. 23 press release, the SEC said the Division of Examinations had issued its Fiscal Year 2027 priorities. However, background verification supplied with the material notes that searches of SEC publications and announcements did not locate a Fiscal Year 2027 examination priorities report. The latest annual examination priorities report that could be verified was the Fiscal Year 2026 release, published Nov. 17, 2025, according to the SEC.
