Jay Dubow, co-leader of Troutman Pepper Locke’s Securities Investigations + Enforcement Practice Group, was quoted in the May 6, 2026, Law360 article, “Semiannual Reporting Sparks Conundrum For REITs.”

  • Since the rule, if finalized, would allow rather than mandate less frequent reporting requirements for companies including REITs, they’d likely take a wait and see approach before making a switch. Jay A. Dubow, a partner at Troutman Pepper Locke who co-leads its securities investigations and enforcement practice group, said that while it was not totally unexpected that the reporting requirements would be optional, it creates a difficult choice for companies.
  • “It’s a little bit surprising and a little disruptive,” Dubow said.
  • “Companies will have to kind of look to the left and look to the right because of it being optional,” Dubow said.
