Amendments to Forms and Schedules To Remove Provision of Certain Personally Identifiable Information
The Securities and Exchange Commission adopted final rules amending Forms Funding Portal, MA, MA-I, and MSD to eliminate requests for sensitive personally identifiable information, including Social Security numbers and dates of birth. These revisions remove specific PII fields from the forms and update the EDGAR Filer Manual to ensure electronic submissions remain compliant without the deleted data. The Commission determined that retaining this sensitive information is unnecessary for achieving regulatory objectives and that the changes will reduce costs and security risks for filers.
