SEC Filings Source
The SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) requires all publicly-held U.S. companies to file reports that disclose their financial condition, results of operations, and any other information that is of significance to investors.
In 1993, the SEC began to require electronic filing, through the EDGAR (Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval) System. Disclosure Inc., enhances these document by providing additional features that greatly improve search ability, while it preserves the integrity of the original electronic filings. Disclosure's process is customized to take full advantage of the unique features of each major form type.
