Abstract
This new report finds that the main annual financial reporting framework imposed by the US regulators on ‘Big Tech’ firms (Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Facebook and Microsoft) is not fit for purpose. The Security and Exchange Commission’s annual ‘10-K’ disclosure reporting instead helps ‘Big Tech’ companies conceal market power, increase profit margins, and expand their platforms’ dominance. A collaboration between the authors, IIPP economists Ilan Strauss, Mariana Mazzucato and Josh Ryan-Collins and Silicon Valley entrepreneur and Big Tech reformer Tim O’Reilly, provide their recommendations within the report
