Allensworth | Anne C. Choe | John F. Rupp<\/p>\n<p>The Securities and Exchange Commission (the \u201cSEC\u201d) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the \u201cCFTC,\u201d and<br \/>together with the SEC, the \u201cCommissions\u201d) recently voted to jointly adopt amendments to Form PF (the \u201cAmendments\u201d).<br \/>The Amendments significantly increase the amount of information required to be included on Form PF and limit the flexibility<br \/>in responding to a number of questions on the form. The Amendments represent the latest increase in the regulatory<br \/>burdens placed on private fund advisers. In particular, many Form PF filers just recently implemented, on December 11,<br \/>2023, compliance with the SEC\u2019s amendments to Form PF for large hedge fund advisers and advisers to private equity<br \/>funds to promptly report certain events.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the Amendments will (i) enhance reporting requirements of large hedge fund advisers and qualifying hedge funds,<br \/>(ii) enhance reporting on basic information about advisers and the private funds they advise, (iii) require more detailed<br \/>information about the investment strategies, counterparty exposures, and trading and clearing mechanisms employed by hedge funds, and (iv) generally require large hedge fund advisers to report information on a disaggregated basis for master-<br \/>feeder funds and parallel funds. Certain of the changes in the Amendments overlap with disclosures currently included in CFTC Form CPO-PQR, such as information regarding withdrawals and redemptions, identifying sub-asset classes and portfolio exposures, counterparty exposures, and providing monthly performance information. The Amendments also will make certain timing changes that more closely align Form PF with Form CPO-PQR. While these changes may be thematically consistent with the information already provided in Form CPO-PQR, the presentation between the forms would still differ.<\/p>\n<p>The Commissions proposed the Amendments in August 2022 (the \u201cProposed Amendments\u201d) to address \u201cinformation gaps<br \/>and situations where revised information would improve\u201d their understanding of the private fund industry and potential<br \/>systemic risk within it. The Amendments represent a joint proposal of the Commissions, and they also reflect input from<br \/>other members of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (\u201cFSOC\u201d), including the Department of the Treasury and the<br \/>Federal Reserve Board.<\/p>\n<p>The Commissions note in the Proposing Release that since Form PF was initially adopted, the private fund industry has<br \/>grown in size and evolved in terms of business practices, complexity of fund structures, and investment strategies and<br \/>exposures. The value of private fund net assets reported on Form PF has more than doubled, growing from $5 trillion in<br \/>2013 to $14 trillion in through the first quarter of 2023, while the number of private funds reported on the form has increased<br \/>by nearly 130 percent.5 Citing the increasing complexity and evolution of the private funds space, the Commissions<br \/>indicated that the Amendments are designed to enhance the information private fund advisers file on Form PF and improve<br \/>data quality.<\/p>\n<p>In light of these developments, the Amendments are part of a broader regulatory effort to increase transparency of private<br \/>funds. On August 23, 2023, the SEC adopted new rules and amendments under the Advisers Act that substantially modify<br \/>existing regulatory requirements and create new compliance obligations for private fund advisers (the \u201cPrivate Fund Adviser<br \/>Rule\u201d). In addition, the May Amendments, which amend the SEC-only sections of Form PF (sections 3, 4, 5, and newly<br \/>adopted section 6), will, among other things, create new reporting requirements and require large hedge fund advisers and<br \/>advisers to private equity funds to report certain events within 72 hours of the event. While the Amendments and the May<br \/>Amendments do not directly overlap in the sections of Form PF they address, together they provide for a comprehensive<br \/>overhaul in Form PF\u2019s structure.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/SEC_and_CFTC_Adopt_Substantial_Amendments_to_Form_PF.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Entire

Federal Reporting Requirement for Beneficial Ownership Information (BOI)<\/strong><\/p><p>Beginning on January 1, 2024, many companies in the United States will have to report information about their beneficial owners, i.e., the individuals who ultimately own or control the company. They will have to report the information to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). FinCEN is a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury.<\/p><p><strong>Who Has to Report?<\/strong><br \/>Companies required to report are called reporting companies. Reporting companies may have to obtain information from their beneficial owners and report that information to FinCEN.<\/p><p>Your company may be a reporting company and need to report information about its beneficial owners if your company is:<\/p><ol><li>A corporation, a limited liability company (LLC), or was otherwise created in the United States by filing a document with a secretary of state or any similar office under the law of a state or Indian tribe ; or<\/li><li>A foreign company and was registered to do business in any U.S. state or Indian tribe by such a filing.<\/li><\/ol><p><strong>Who Does Not Have to Report?<\/strong><br \/>Twenty-three types of entities are exempt from the beneficial ownership information reporting requirements. These entities include publicly traded companies, nonprofits, and certain large operating companies.<\/p><p>FinCEN\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fincen.gov\/boi\/small-entity-compliance-guide\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Small Entity Compliance Guide<\/a> includes checklists for each of the 23 exemptions that may help determine whether your company qualifies for an exemption. Please review Chapter 1.2 of the Guide for more information.<\/p><p><strong>How Do I Report?<\/strong><br \/>Reporting companies will have to report beneficial ownership information electronically through FinCEN\u2019s website: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fincen.gov\/boi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.fincen.gov\/boi<\/a>. The system will provide the filer with a confirmation of receipt once a completed report is filed with FinCEN.<\/p><p><strong>When Do I Report?<\/strong><br \/>Reports will be accepted starting on January 1, 2024.<\/p><ul><li>If your company was created or registered prior to January 1, 2024, you will have until January 1, 2025, to report BOI.<\/li><li>If your company was created or registered on or after January 1, 2024, and before January 1, 2025, you must report BOI within 90 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that your company\u2019s creation or registration is effective, whichever is earlier.<\/li><li>If your company was created or registered on or after January 1, 2025, you must file BOI within 30 calendar days after receiving actual or public notice that its creation or registration is effective.<\/li><li>Any updates or corrections to beneficial ownership information that you previously filed with FinCEN must be submitted within 30 days.<\/li><\/ul><p>Credits: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.fincen.gov\/boi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Link<\/a><\/p><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button admin_label=\"Button Fact Sheet Download\" _builder_version=\"4.22.2\" button_text=\"Download The Fact-Sheet\" button_url=\"http:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/08\/ia-6383-fact-sheet.pdf\" url_new_window=\"on\" button_alignment=\"left\" button_text_shadow_horizontal_length=\"button_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93\" button_text_shadow_horizontal_length_tablet=\"0px\" button_text_shadow_vertical_length=\"button_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93\" button_text_shadow_vertical_length_tablet=\"0px\" button_text_shadow_blur_strength=\"button_text_shadow_style,%91object Object%93\" button_text_shadow_blur_strength_tablet=\"1px\" box_shadow_horizontal_tablet=\"0px\" box_shadow_vertical_tablet=\"0px\" box_shadow_blur_tablet=\"40px\" box_shadow_spread_tablet=\"0px\" vertical_offset_tablet=\"0\" horizontal_offset_tablet=\"0\" z_index_tablet=\"0\" custom_button=\"on\" button_text_size=\"13px\" button_text_color=\"#ffffff\" button_bg_color=\"#006daf\" button_border_width=\"0px\" button_border_radius=\"0px\" button_icon=\"%%20%%\" button_icon_color=\"#ffffff\" button_rel=\"off||||\" disabled=\"on\" disabled_on=\"on|on|on\" \/][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-716","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-ics-insights"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/716","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=716"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/716\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":720,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/716\/revisions\/720"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/588"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=716"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=716"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ics-compliance.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=716"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
