There are no additional NYSE requirements that apply to very large multinational companies or smaller companies. SEC disclosure and other requirements may vary for companies in specialized industries (such as oil & gas companies, investment companies and financial companies). For example, the SEC adopted special disclosure rules for all listed companies (foreign and domestic) requiring an annual specialized disclosure report on Form SD if "conflict minerals" (as defined within the rules) are contained in products a company manufactures or contracts to be manufactured and necessary to the functionality of those products or their production processes and also adopted special disclosure rules for all listed companies (foreign and domestic) requiring resource extraction issuers to disclose payments to governments related to the commercial development of oil, natural gas or minerals, reportable through report on Form SD. Most recently, the SEC adopted new rules for all listed companies (foreign and domestic) requiring disclosure of material cybersecurity incidents and certain other cybersecurity related disclosures as well as new rules requiring certain disclosures about an issuer's insider trading policies and procedures.

The NYSE provides alternative listing standards for companies that operate primarily to provide venture capital for small and medium sized business equity listings. These standards are only available to companies registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or the Small Business Investment Act of 1958. Under these standards the earnings requirement is modified, and the net tangible assets applicable to common stock must be at least US$18 million (including a minimum of US$8 million in paid-in-capital or retained earnings).

No explicit procedure currently exists for fast track or expedited listing, but the process may be expedited with the NYSE if scheduling and timing permit. Most companies find that the SEC registration process is more time-consuming than the NYSE listing process.
