In addition to changes across the world in response to COVID-19, there are significant changes to equity market structure on the horizon with SEC proposals to change the market data infrastructure and governance of market data plans and a final ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit in the market data litigation that lasted over a decade. In addition to these proposals and court ruling, this panel will examine the market resiliency in light of COVID-19 and discuss expectations from the SEC by the end of the year.
