NASDAQ has amended its rules to require a NASDAQ listed company to promptly notify NASDAQ after an executive officer becomes aware of “any noncompliance” with its corporate governance rules. NASDAQ’s corporate governance rules previously said that notification was required in instances of “any material noncompliance” (emphasis added). The NYSE made a comparable change to its corporate governance rules earlier this year.
