SEC Proposes Amendments to Small Entity Definitions

The SEC has proposed amendments that would revise small entity classifications under the Regulatory Flexibility Act for investment companies, investment advisers, and BDCs. Firms should review whether these changes affect their reporting and compliance obligations.

ICS advises financial institutions navigating regulatory changes of this type. If your firm needs to assess the impact of this development on your compliance program, contact us to discuss.
