Companies have been dissuaded from going public in recent years because woke policies and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs caused “mayhem” on Wall Street, SEC Chairman Paul Atkins said on the latest episode of “Pod Force One. ” “One of my pillars is to try to make IPOs great again,” the head of the Securities and Exchange Commission told “Pod Force One” host Miranda Devine. “Part of that is to get back to basics –  all of this mayhem in the corporate governance area, I submit, is one of the reasons why companies don’t want to go public,” Atkins argued.
