The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has released a list of the 947 companies whose top officials are required to file sworn statements attesting to the accuracy of their companies’ most recent annual and quarterly financial reports. The list is posted on the SEC’s Web site.

The measure, which applies to 947 largest SEC-registered publicly traded companies, is designed to boost investor confidence.

The commission issued an order June 27 requiring the filing of the sworn statements swearing to the integrity of corporate financials. Commission staff announced today that the written statements will be posted and the dates of receipt indicated on the SEC Web site as soon as practicable after they are received, scanned and electronically processed. The list will link to the sworn statements as they are posted.

A large number of statements are expected to be received on or around August 14, when most companies’ next quarterly statements are due. The SEC says the processing of those statements is expected to be completed during the week of August 19.
