On May 3, 2023, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) officially announced the adoption of new amendments enhancing disclosure requirements for private funds.
The amendments were originally proposed on January 26, 2022, and have been adopted with several modifications in light of the many comments received on the proposal. The amendments are designed to “enhance the ability of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) to assess systemic risk and to bolster the Commission’s oversight of private fund advisers and its investor protection efforts.”
As we previously discussed in our legal update, US SEC amendments seek more disclosures from private equity and hedge funds, which regards the proposed amendments and how they would increase disclosure requirements, the proposed amendments—and their subsequent adoption—primarily concern changes to Form PF and follow the SEC announcement that it will more closely scrutinize the transaction costs and fees charged by private equity and hedge funds.
Regarding the adopted amendments, SEC Chair Gary Gensler explained, “Private funds today are ever more interconnected with our broader capital markets. They also nearly have tripled in size in the last decade. This makes visibility into these funds ever more important. Today’s amendments to Form PF will enhance visibility into private funds and help protect investors and promote financial stability.”
Primarily, the amendments will require large hedge fund advisers and all private equity fund advisers to file current reports upon the occurrence of certain reporting events that could indicate significant stress at a fund or investor harm.
More specifically, the reporting requirements for private equity fund advisers are modified by the adopted amendments in the following manner:
Some major deviations from the proposed amendments are as follows:
The amendments for current reporting will become effective in November 2023, and the remaining amendments will become effective in May 2024.
This announcement and the adopted amendments should signal to private equity and hedge funds that the SEC remains focused on their conduct; and private funds should start or continue taking proactive measures to ensure compliance with the new requirements stemming from these efforts.
