Companies Law (Amendment – Publication of a Monopoly's Financial Statements) Bill

Translated from Hebrew: הצעת חוק החברות (תיקון - פרסום דוחות כספיים של מונופול)

TL;DRA bill to require companies holding a monopoly to publish financial statements to the public through their website.

Translated from Hebrew

What does the bill do?

The bill amends the Companies Law (5759-1999) in order to add a duty to publish financial statements for companies that are not traded on the stock exchange but are defined as monopoly holders under the Economic Competition Law (5748-1988). The publication will be made on the company's website, with a notice in a newspaper in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Law (5728-1968). The aim is to allow the public and the media to monitor the financial conduct of monopolistic companies that are not subject to the public reporting requirements that apply to companies on the stock exchange.
