On September 19, 2016, EDGAR 16.3 was released by the Securities and Exchange Commission. This release contained changes to Form ABS-EE and filing changes for Forms N-CR, 13H-I and 13H-T.
Changes to Filing Submissions
Forms N-CR and N-CR/A can now be submitted to EDGAR by unregistered money market funds. The following data can optionally be provided when an unregistered money market fund files a report on these submission types:
– Filer Investment Company Type
– Series ID
– Class ID
Large Traders whose most recent 13H filing was a Form 13H-I will now be able to submit a Form 13H-T regardless of the amount of time that has passed since the 13H-I filing was made.
