## Resource

Michelle Leder is the founder and editor-in-chief of footnoted.com, a source for uncovering important information hidden deep in SEC filings, and a longtime voice for transparency and accountability in financial disclosures. Michelle and I dive into how footnoted started, and why scrutinizing SEC filings, especially the rarely-read footnotes and after-hours “Friday Night Dump” disclosures, is relevant for boards, investors, and governance professionals.
