Securities and Exchange Commission: Amendments to Form ADV and Investment Advisers Act Rules

38050 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 127 / Thursday, July 2, 2015 / Proposed Rules applies to a product, no state or political subdivision of a state may either establish or continue in effect a requirement dealing with the same risk of injury unless the state requirement is identical to the federal standard. Section 26(c) of the CPSA also provides that states or political subdivisions of states may apply to the Commission for an exemption from this preemption under certain circumstances. Section 104(b) of the CPSIA refers to the rules to be issued under that section as ‘‘consumer product safety rules.’’ Therefore, the preemption provision of section 26(a) of the CPSA would apply to a rule issued under section 104. XV. Request for Comments This NPR begins a rulemaking proceeding under section 104(b) of the CPSIA to issue a consumer product safety standard for hook-on chairs, and to amend part 1112 to add hook-on chairs to the list of children’s product safety rules for which the CPSC has issued an NOR. We invite all interested persons to submit comments on any aspect of the proposed mandatory safety standard for hook-on chairs and on the proposed amendment to part 1112. Specifically, the Commission requests comments on the costs of compliance with, and testing to, the proposed hook￾on chair safety standard, the proposed six-month effective date for the new mandatory hook-on chair safety standard, and the proposed amendment to part 1112. During the comment period, the ASTM F1235–15, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Portable Hook-On Chairs, is available as a read-only document at: http:// www.astm.org/cpsc.htm. Comments should be submitted in accordance with the instructions in the ADDRESSES section at the beginning of this notice.

Failure to follow these instructions, properly complete the form, or pay all required fees may result in your application or report being delayed or rejected. In these instructions and in Form ADV, "you" means the investment adviser (i.e., the advisory firm). If you are a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, "you" means the SID, rather than your bank, unless the instructions or the form provide otherwise. If you are a private fund adviser filing an umbrella registration, "you" means the filing adviser and each relying adviser, unless the instructions or the form provide otherwise. The information in Items 1, 2, 3 and 10 (including corresponding schedules) should be provided for the filing adviser only. Terms that appear in italics are defined in the Glossary of Terms to Form ADV.

1. Where can I get more information on Form ADV, electronic filing, and the lARD? The SEC provides information about its rules and the Advisers Act on its website: http://www.sec.gov/iard. NASAA provides information about state investment adviser laws and state rules, and how to contact a state securities authority, on its website: http://www.nasaa.org. FINRA provides information about the lARD and electronic filing on the lARD website: http://www.iard.com.
2. What is Form ADV used for? Investment advisers use Form ADV to: • Register with the Securities and Exchange Commission • Register with one or more state securities authorities • Amend those registrations; • Report to the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser • Report to one or more state securities authorities as an exempt reporting adviser • Amend those reports; and • Submit a final report as an exempt reporting adviser

How is Form ADV organized? Form ADV contains four parts: • Part 1A asks a number of questions about you, your business practices, the persons who own and control you, and the persons who provide investment advice on your behalf o All advisers registering with the SEC or any of the state securities authorities must complete Part 1A. o Exempt reporting advisers (that are not also registering with any state securities authority) must complete only the following Items of Part 1A: 1, 2, 3, 6, 7, 10, and 11, as well as corresponding schedules. Exempt reporting advisers that are registering with any state securities authority must complete all of Form ADV. Part 1A also contains several supplemental schedules. The items of Part 1A let you know which schedules you must complete. o Schedule A asks for information about your direct owners and executive officers. o Schedule B asks for information about your indirect owners. o Schedule Cis used by paper filers to update the information required by Schedules A and B (see Instruction 18). o ScheduleD asks for additional information for certain items in Part lA. o ScheduleR asks for additional information about relying advisers. o Disclosure Reporting Pages (or DRPs) are schedules that ask for details about disciplinary events involving you or your advisory affiliates. • Part 1B asks additional questions required by state securities authorities. Part lB contains three additional DRPs. If you are applying for SEC registration or are registered only with the SEC, you do not have to complete Part lB. (If you are filing electronically and you do not have to complete Part lB, you will not see Part lB.) • Part 2A requires advisers to create narrative brochures containing information about the advisory firm. The requirements in Part 2A apply to all investment advisers registered with or applying for registration with the SEC, but do not apply to exempt reporting advisers. • Part 2B requires advisers to create brochure supplements containing information about certain supervised persons. The requirements in Part 2B apply to all investment advisers registered with or applying for registration with the SEC, but do not apply to exempt reporting advisers. 4. When am I required to update my Form ADV? • SEC- and State-Registered Advisers: o Annual updating amendments: You must amend your Form ADV each year by filing an annual updating amendment within 90 days after the end of your fiscal

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 127 / Thursday, July 2, 2015 / Proposed Rules 38053 VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:02 Jul 01, 2015 Jkt 235001 PO 00000 Frm 00035 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4725 E:\FR\FM\02JYP1.SGM 02JYP1 asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS EP02JY15.002</GPH> year. When you submit your annual updating amendment, you must update your responses to all items, including corresponding sections of Schedules A, B, C, and D and all sections of Schedule R for each relying adviser. You must submit your summary of material changes required by Item 2 of Part 2A either in the brochure (cover page or the page immediately thereafter) or as an exhibit to your brochure. o Other-than-annual amendments: In addition to your annual updating amendment, if you are registered with the SEC or a state securities authority, you must amend your Form ADV, including corresponding sections of Schedules A, B, C, D and R, by filing additional amendments (other-than-annual amendments) promptly if: o you are adding or removing a relying adviser as part of your umbrella registration o information you provided in response to Items 1 (except 1.0), 3, 9 (except 9.A.(2), 9.B.(2), 9.E., and 9.F.), or 11 of Part 1A or Items 1, 2.A. through 2.F., or 2.I. of Part 1B or Sections 1 or 3 of ScheduleR becomes inaccurate in any way; o information you provided in response to Items 4, 8, or 10 of Part 1A, or Item 2. G. of Part 1B, or Section 10 of Schedule R becomes materially inaccurate; or o information you provided in your brochure becomes materially inaccurate (see note below for exceptions) Notes: Part 1: If you are submitting an other-than-annual amendment, you are not required to update your responses to Items 2, 5, 6, 7, 9.A.(2), 9.B.(2), 9.E., 9.F., or 12 of Part 1A, Items 2.H. or 2.J. of Part 1B, or Section 2 of ScheduleR even if your responses to those items have become inaccurate. Part 2: You must amend your brochure supplements (see Form ADV, Part 2B) promptly if any information in them becomes materially inaccurate. If you are submitting an other-than-annual amendment to your brochure, you are not required to update your summary of material changes as required by Item 2. You are not required to update your brochure between annual amendments solely because the amount of client assets you manage has changed or because your fee schedule has changed. However, if you are updating your brochure for a separate reason in between annual amendments, and the amount of client assets you manage listed in response to Item 4.E or your fee schedule listed in response to Item 5.A has become materially inaccurate, you should update that item(s) as part of the interim amendment. • If you are an SEC-registered adviser, you are required to file your brochure amendments electronically through lARD. You are not required to file amendments to your brochure supplements with the SEC, but you must maintain a copy of them in your files.

When you submit your annual updating amendment, you must update your responses to all required items, including corresponding sections of Schedules A, B, C and D. o Other-than-Annual Amendments: In addition to your annual updating amendment, you must amend your Form ADV by filing additional amendments (other-than-annual amendments) promptly if: o information you provided in response to Items 1, 3, or 11 becomes inaccurate in any way; or o information you provided in response to Item 10 becomes materially inaccurate. Failure to update your Form ADV, as required by this instruction, is a violation of SEC rules or similar state rules and could lead to your registration being revoked. 5. What is SEC umbrella registration and how can I satisfy the requirements of filing an umbrella registration? An umbrella registration is a single registration by a filing adviser and one or more relying advisers who advise only private funds and certain separately managed account clients that are qualified clients and collectively conduct a single advisory business. Absent other facts suggesting that the filing adviser and relying adviser(s) conduct different businesses, umbrella registration is available under the following circumstances:

1. The filing adviser and each relying adviser advise only private funds and clients in separately managed accounts that are qualified clients and are otherwise eligible to invest in the private funds advised by the filing adviser or a relying adviser and whose accounts pursue investment objectives and strategies that are substantially similar or otherwise related to those private funds. n. The filing adviser has its principal office and place of business in the United States and, therefore, all of the substantive provisions of the Advisers Act and the rules thereunder apply to the filing adviser's and each relying adviser's dealings with each of its clients, regardless of whether any client or the filing adviser or relying adviser providing the advice is a United States person.

Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 127 / Thursday, July 2, 2015 / Proposed Rules 38055 VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:02 Jul 01, 2015 Jkt 235001 PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4725 E:\FR\FM\02JYP1.SGM 02JYP1 asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS EP02JY15.004</GPH> m. Each relying adviser, its employees and the persons acting on its behalf are subject to the filing adviser's supervision and control and, therefore, each relying adviser, its employees and the persons acting on its behalf are "persons associated with" the filing adviser (as defined in section 202(a)(17) of the Advisers Act). iv. The advisory activities of each relying adviser are subject to the Advisers Act and the rules thereunder, and each relying adviser is subject to examination by the SEC. v. The filing adviser and each relying adviser operate under a single code of ethics adopted in accordance with SEC rule 204A-1 and a single set ofwritten policies and procedures adopted and implemented in accordance with SEC rule 206(4)-(7) and administered by a single chief compliance officer in accordance with that rule. To satisfy the requirements of Form ADV while using umbrella registration the filing adviser must sign, file, and update as required, a single Form ADV (Parts 1 and 2) that relates to, and includes all information concerning, the filing adviser and each relying adviser (e.g., disciplinary information and ownership information), and must include this same information in any other reports or filings it must make under the Advisers Act or the rules thereunder (e.g., Form PF). The filing adviser and each relying adviser must not be prohibited from registering with the SEC by section 203A of the Advisers Act (i.e. thefiling adviser and each relying adviser must individually qualify for SEC registration). Unless otherwise specified, references to "you" in Form ADV refer to both the filing adviser and each relying adviser. The information in Items 1, 2, 3 and 10 (including corresponding schedules) should be provided for the filing adviser only. A separate ScheduleR should be completed for each relying adviser. References to "you" in Schedule R refer to the relying adviser only. A filing adviser applying for registration with the SEC should complete a ScheduleR for each relying adviser. If you are a filing adviser registered with the SEC and would like to add or delete relying advisers from an umbrella registration, you should file an other-than-annual amendment and add or delete Schedule Rs as needed. Note: Umbrella registration is not available to exempt reporting advisers. 6. Where do I sign my Form ADV application or amendment? You must sign the appropriate Execution Page. There are three Execution Pages at the end of the form. Your initial application, your initial report (in the case of an exempt reporting adviser), and all amendments to Form ADV must include at least one Execution Page. • If you are applying for or are amending your SEC registration, or if you are reporting as an exempt reporting adviser or amending your report, you must sign and submit either a: o Domestic Investment Adviser Execution Page, if you (the advisory firm) are a resident of the United States; or

Who must sign my Form ADV or amendment? The individual who signs the form depends upon your form of organization: • For a sole proprietorship, the sole proprietor. • For a partnership, a general partner. • For a corporation, an authorized principal officer. • For a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, a principal officer of your bank who is directly engaged in the management, direction, or supervision of your investment advisory activities. • For all others, an authorized individual who participates in managing or directing your affairs. The signature does not have to be notarized, and in the case of an electronic filing, should be a typed name. 8. How do I file my Form ADV? Complete Form ADV electronically using the Investment Adviser Registration Depository (lARD) if: • You are filing with the SEC (and submitting notice filing.<; to any of the state securities authorities), or • You are filing with a state securities authority that requires or permits advisers to submit Form ADV through the lARD. Note: SEC rules require advisers that are registered or applying for registration with the SEC, or that are reporting to the SEC as an exempt reporting adviser, to file electronically through the lARD system. See SEC rules 203-1 and 204-4. To file electronically, go to the lARD website (<www.iard.com>), which contains detailed instructions for advisers to follow when filing through the lARD. Complete Form ADV (Paper Version) on paper if: • You are filing with the SEC or a state securities authority that requires electronic filing, but you have been granted a continuing hardship exemption. Hardship exemptions are described in Instruction 17.

How do I get started filing electronically? First, obtain a copy of the lARD Entitlement Package from the following website: http://www.iard.com/GetStarted.asp. Second, request access to the lARD system for your firm by completing and submitting the lARD Entitlement Package. The lARD Entitlement Package must be submitted on paper. Mail the forms to: FINRA Entitlement Group, P.O. Box 9495, Gaithersburg, MD 20898-9495. When FINRA receives your Entitlement Package, they will assign a CRD number (identification number for your firm) and a user I.D. code and password (identification number and system password for the individual(s) who will submit Form ADV filings for your firm). Your firm may request an I.D. code and password for more than one individual. FINRA also will create a financial account for you from which the lARD will deduct filing fees and any state fees you are required to pay. If you already have a CRD account with FINRA, it will also serve as your lARD account; a separate account will not be established. Once you receive your CRD number, user I.D. code and password, and you have funded your account, you are ready to file electronically. Questions regarding the Entitlement Process should be addressed to FINRA at 240.386.4848. 10. If I am applying for registration with the SEC, or amending my SEC registration, how do I make notice filings with the state securities authorities? If you are applying for registration with the SEC or are amending your SEC registration, one or more state securities authorities may require you to provide them with copies of your SEC filings. We call these filings "notice filings." Your notice filings will be sent electronically to the states that you check on Item 2.C. of Part lA The state securities authorities to which you send notice filings may charge fees, which will be deducted from the account you establish with FINRA To determine which state securities authorities require SEC￾registered advisers to submit notice filings and to pay fees, consult the relevant state investment adviser law or state securities authority. See General Instruction 1. If you are granted a continuing hardship exemption to file Form ADV on paper, FINRA will enter your filing into the lARD and your notice filings will be sent electronically to the state securities authorities that you check on Item 2.C. of Part lA 11. I am registered with a state. When must I switch to SEC registration? If at the time of your annual updating amendment you meet at least one of the requirements for SEC registration in Item 2.A(l) to (12) of Part lA, you must apply for registration with the SEC within 90 days after you file the annual updating amendment. Once you register with the

See SEC rule 203A-1 (b )(2). Each of your investment adviser representatives, however, may be subject to registration in those states in which the representative has a place ofbusiness. See Advisers Act section 203A(b)(1); SEC rule 203A-3(a). For additional information, consult the investment adviser laws or the state securities authority for the particular state in which you are "doing business." See General Instruction 1. 12. I am registered with the SEC. When must I switch to registration with a state securities authority? If you check box 13 in Item 2.A. of Part 1A to report on your annual updating amendment that you are no longer eligible to register with the SEC, you must withdraw from SEC registration within 180 days after the end of your fiscal year by filing Form ADV-W. See SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2). You should consult state law or the state securities authority for the states in which you are "doing business" to determine if you are required to register in these states. See General Instruction 1. Until you file your Form ADV-W with the SEC, you will remain subject to SEC regulation, and you also will be subject to regulation in any states where you register. See SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2). 13. I am an exempt reporting adviser. When must I submit my first report on Form ADV? • All exempt reporting advisers: You must submit your initial Form ADV filing within 60 days of relying on the exemption from registration under either section 203(1) of the Advisers Act as an adviser solely to one or more venture capital funds or section 203(m) of the Advisers Act because you act solely as an adviser to private funds and have assets under management in the United States ofless than $150 million. • Additional instruction for advisers switching from being registered to being exempt reporting advisers: If you are currently registered as an investment adviser (or have an application for registration pending) with the SEC or with a state securities authority, you must file a Form ADV-W to withdraw from registration in the jurisdictions where you are switching. You must submit the Form ADV-W before submitting your first report as an exempt reporting adviser. 14. I am an exempt reporting adviser. Is it possible that I might be required to also register with or submit a report to a state securities authority? Yes, you may be required to register with or submit a report to one or more state securities authorities. If you are required to register with one or more state securities authorities, you must complete all ofForm ADV. See General Instruction 3. If you are required to submit a report to one or more state securities authorities, check the box(es) in Item 2.C. of Part 1A next to the state(s) you would like to receive the report. Each of your investment adviser representatives may also be subject to registration requirements. For additional information

See General Instruction 1. 15. What do I do if I no longer meet the definition of an "exempt reporting adviser"? • Advisers Switching to SEC Registration: o You may no longer be an exempt reporting adviser and may be required to register with the SEC if you wish to continue doing business as an investment adviser. For example, you may be relying on section 203(1) and wish to accept a client that is not a venture capital fund as defined in SEC rule 203(1)-1, or you may have been relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and reported in Section 2.B. of ScheduleD to your annual updating amendment that you have private fund assets of $150 million or more. • If you are relying on section 203(1), unless you qualify for another exemption, you would violate the Advisers Act's registration requirement if you accept a client that is not a venture capital fund as defined in SEC rule 203(1)-1 before the SEC approves your application for registration. You must submit your final report as an exempt reporting adviser and apply for SEC registration in the same filing. • Ifyou were relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and you reported in Section 2.B. of ScheduleD to your annual updating amendment that you have private fund assets of $150 million or more, you must register with the SEC unless you qualify for another exemption. If you have complied with all SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser as such, you have up to 90 days after filing your annual updating amendment to apply for SEC registration, and you may continue doing business as a private fund adviser during this time. You must submit your final report as an exempt reporting adviser and apply for SEC registration in the same filing. Unless you qualify for another exemption, you would violate the Advisers Act's registration requirement if you accept a client that is not a private fund during this transition period before the SEC approves your application for registration, and you must comply with all SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser as such during this 90-day transition period. If you have not complied with all SEC reporting requirements applicable to an exempt reporting adviser as such, this 90-day transition period is not available to you. Therefore, if the transition period is not available to you, and you do not qualify for another exemption, your application for registration must be approved by the SEC before you meet or exceed SEC rule 203(m)-1 's $150 million asset threshold.

If your application is approved, you will be able to continue business as a registered adviser. o If you register with the SEC, you may be subject to state notice filing requirements. To determine these requirements, consult the investment adviser laws or the state securities authority for the particular state in which you are "doing business." See General Instruction 1. Note: If you are relying on SEC rule 203(m)-1 and you accept a client that is not a private fund, you will lose the exemption provided by SEC rule 203(m)-1 immediately. To avoid this result, you should apply for SEC registration in advance so that the SEC has approved your registration before you accept a client that is not a private fund. The 90-day transition period described above also applies to investment advisers with their principal offices and places of business outside of the United States with respect to their clients who are United States persons (e.g., the adviser would not be eligible for the 90-day transition period if it accepted a client that is a United States person and is not a private fund). • Advisers Not Switching to SEC Registration: o You may no longer be an exempt reporting adviser but may not be required to register with the SEC or may be prohibited from doing so. For example, you may cease to do business as an investment adviser, become eligible for an exemption that does not require reporting, or be ineligible for SEC registration. In this case, you must submit a final report as an exempt reporting adviser to update only Item 1 of Part 1A of Form ADV. o You may be subject to state registration requirements. To determine these requirements, consult the investment adviser laws or the state securities authority fbr the particular state in which you are "doing business." See General Instruction 1. 16. Are there filing fees? Yes. These fees go to support and maintain the lARD. The lARD filing fees are in addition to any registration or other fee that may be required by state law. You must pay an lARD filing fee for your initial application, your initial report, and each annual updating amendment. There is no filing fee for an other-than-annual amendment, a final report as an exempt reporting adviser, or Form ADV-W. The lARD filing fee schedule is published at http://www.sec.gov/iard; http://www.nasaa.org; and http://www.iard.com. If you are submitting a paper filing under a continuing hardship exemption (see Instruction 17), you are required to pay an additional fee. The amount of the additional fee depends on whether you are filing Form ADV or Form ADV-W. (There is no additional fee for filings

If you are exempt from registration with that state or are excluded from the definition of investment adviser in that state, you must register with the SEC. You should consult the investment adviser laws or the state securities authority for the particular state in which you maintain your principal office and place of business to determine if you are required to register in that state.

See SEC rule 203A-2(a). • To calculate the value of assets for purposes of this exemption, aggregate the assets of the plans for which you provided advisory services at the end of the 12-month period. If you provided advisory services to other plans during the 12-month period, but your employment or contract terminated before the end of the 12-month period, you also may include the value of those assets. f. Item 2.A.(S): Related Adviser. You may check box 8 only if you are eligible for the related adviser exemption from the prohibition on SEC registration. See SEC rule 203A￾2(b ). You are eligible for this exemption if you control, are controlled by, or are under common control with an investment adviser that is registered with the SEC, and you have the same principal office and place of business as that other investment adviser. Note that you may not rely on the SEC registration of an Internet adviser under rule 203A-2(e) in establishing eligibility for this exemption. See SEC rule 203A-2(e)(1)(iii). If you check box 8, you also must complete Section 2.A.(8) of Schedule D. g. Item 2.A.(9): Adviser Expecting to be Eligible for Registration within 120 Days. You may check box 9 only if you are eligible for the exemption from the prohibition on SEC registration available to advisers expecting to be eligible for SEC registration within 120 days, such as a newly formed adviser.

If you check box 9, you also must complete Section 2.A.(9) of Schedule D. You must file an amendment to Part 1A of your Form ADV that updates your response to Item 2.A. within 120 days after the SEC declares your registration effective. You may not check box 9 on your amendment; since this exemption is available only if you are not registered, you may not "re-rely" on this exemption. Ifyou indicate on that amendment (by checking box 13) that you are not eligible to register with the SEC, you also must file a Form ADV-W to withdraw your SEC registration no later than 120 days after your registration was declared effective. You should contact the appropriate state securities authority to determine how long it may take to become state-registered sufficiently in advance of when you are required to file Form ADV-W to withdraw from SEC registration.

You also must file a Form ADV-W to withdraw your SEC registration. See Part 1A Instruction 2.j.

1. Item 2.A.(ll): Internet Adviser. You may check box 11 only if you are eligible for the Internet adviser exemption from the prohibition on SEC registration. See SEC rule 203A-2(e). You are eligible for this exemption if: • you provide investment advice to your clients through an interactive website.

(and are therefore no longer eligible to remain registered with the SEC). You must withdraw from SEC registration within 180 days after the end of your fiscal year by filing Form ADV-W. Until you file your Form ADV-W, you will remain subject to SEC regulation, and you also will be subject to regulation in the states in which you register. See SEC rule 203A-1(b)(2). k. Item 2.B.: Reporting by Exempt Reporting Advisers. You may check box 2.B.(1) only if you qualify for the exemption from SEC registration as an adviser solely to one or more venture capital funds. See SEC rule 203(1)-1. You may check box 2.B.(2) only if you qualify for the exemption from SEC registration because you act solely as an adviser to private funds and have assets under management in the United States of less than $150 million. See SEC rule 203(m)-1. You may check both boxes to indicate that you qualify for both exemptions. You should check box 2.B.(3) if you act solely as an adviser to private funds but you are no longer eligible to check box 2.B.(2) because you have assets under management in the United States of $150 million or more. If you check box 2.B.(2) or (3), you also must complete Section 2.B. of Schedule D. 3. Item 3: Form of Organization If you are a "separately identifiable department or division" (SID) of a bank, answer Item 3.A. by checking "other." In the space provided, specify that you are a "SID of' and indicate the form of organization of your bank. Answer Items 3.B. and 3.C. with information about your bank. 4. Item 4: Successions a. Succession of an SEC-Registered Adviser. If you ( 1) have taken over the business of an investment adviser or (2) have changed your structure or legal status (e.g., form of organization or state of incorporation), a new organization has been created, which has registration obligations under the Advisers Act. There are different ways to fulfill these obligations. You may rely on the registration provisions discussed in the General Instructions, or you may be able to rely on special registration provisions for "successors" to SEC-registered advisers, which may ease the transition to the successor adviser's registration. To determine if you may rely on these provisions, review "Registration of Successors to Broker-Dealers and Investment Advisers," Investment Advisers Act Release No. 1357 (Dec. 28, 1992). If you have taken over an adviser, follow Part 1A Instruction 4.a(1), Succession by Application. If you have changed your structure or legal status, follow Part 1A Instruction 4.a(2), Succession by Amendment.

(1) Succession by Application. If you are not registered with the SEC as an adviser, and you are acquiring or assuming substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the advisory business of an SEC-registered adviser, file a new application for registration on Form ADV. You will receive new registration numbers. You must file the new application within 30 days after the succession. On the application, make sure you check "yes" to Item 4.A., enter the date of the succession in Item 4.B., and complete Section 4 of Schedule D. Until the SEC declares your new registration effective, you may rely on the registration of the adviser you are acquiring, but only if the adviser you are acquiring is no longer conducting advisory activities. Once your new registration is effective, a Form ADV-W must be filed with the SEC to withdraw the registration of the acquired adviser. (2) Succession by Amendment. If you are a new investment adviser formed solely as a result of a change in form of organization, a reorganization, or a change in the composition of a partnership, and there has been no practical change in control or management, you may amend the registration of the registered investment adviser to reflect these changes rather than file a new application. You will keep the same registration numbers, and you should not file a Form ADV-W. On the amendment, make sure you check "yes" to Item 4.A., enter the date of the succession in Item 4.B., and complete Section 4 of Schedule D. You must submit the amendment within 30 days after the change or reorganization. b. Succession of a State-Registered Adviser. If you (1) have taken over the business of an investment adviser or (2) have changed your structure or legal status (e.g., form of organization or state of incorporation), a new organization has been created, which has registration obligations under state investment adviser laws. There may be different ways to fulfill these obligations. You should contact each state in which you are registered to determine that state's requirements for successor registration. See Form ADV General Instruction 1. 5. Item 5: Information About Your Advisory Business a. Newly-Formed Advisers: Several questions in Item 5 that ask about your advisory business assume that you have been operating your advisory business for some time. Your response to these questions should reflect your current advisory business (i.e., at the time you file your Form ADV), with the following exceptions: • base your response to Item 5 .E. on the types of compensation you expect to accept; • base your response to Item 5.G. and Item 5.J. on the types of advisory services you expect to provide during the next year; and

Item S.F: Calculating Your Regulatory Assets Under Management. In determining the amount of your regulatory assets under management, include the securities portfolios for which you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services as of the date of filing this Form ADV. (1) Securities Portfolios. An account is a securities portfolio if at least 50% of the total value of the account consists of securities. For purposes of this 50% test, you may treat cash and cash equivalents (i.e., bank deposits, certificates of deposit, bankers acceptances, and similar bank instruments) as securities. You must include securities portfolios that are: (a) your family or proprietary accounts; (b) accounts for which you receive no compensation for your services; and (c) accounts of clients who are not United States persons. For purposes of this definition, treat all of the assets of a private fund as a securities portfolio, regardless of the nature of such assets. For accounts of private funds, moreover, include in the securities portfolio any uncalled commitment pursuant to which a person is obligated to acquire an interest in, or make a capital contribution to, the private firnd. (2) Value of Portfolio. Include the entire value of each securities portfolio for which you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services. If you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for only a portion of a securities portfolio, include as regulatory assets under management only that portion of the securities portfolio for which you provide such services. Exclude, for example, the portion of an account: (a) under management by another person; or (b) that consists of real estate or businesses whose operations you "manage" on behalf of a client but not as an investment. Do not deduct any outstanding indebtedness or other accrued but unpaid liabilities. (3) Continuous and Regular Supervisory or Management Services. General Criteria. You provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services with respect to an account if: (a) you have discretionary authority over and provide ongoing supervisory or management services with respect to the account; or

38072 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 127 / Thursday, July 2, 2015 / Proposed Rules VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:02 Jul 01, 2015 Jkt 235001 PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4702 Sfmt 4725 E:\FR\FM\02JYP1.SGM 02JYP1 asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with PROPOSALS EP02JY15.021</GPH> IFmm ADV: ln~1ructions for Part lA Pagesl (b) you do not have discretionaty authority over the account, but you have ongoing responsibility to select or make recommendations, based upon the needs of the client, as to specific securities or other investments the account may purchase or sell and, if such recommendations are accepted by the client, you are responsible for arranging or effecting the purchase or sale. Factors. You should consider the following factors in evaluating whether you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services to an account. (a) Terms of the advisory contract. If you agree in an advisory contract to provide ongoing management services, this suggests that you provide these services for the account. Other provisions in the contract, or your actual management practices, however, may suggest otherwise. (b) Form of compensation. If you are compensated based on the average value of the client's assets you manage over a specified period of time, that suggests that you provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for the account. If you receive compensation in a manner similar to either of the following, that suggests you do not provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for the account -- (i) you are compensated based upon the time spent with a client during a client visit; or (ii) you are paid a retainer based on a percentage of assets covered by a financial plan. (c) Management practices. The extent to which you actively manage assets or provide advice bears on whether the services you provide are continuous and regular supervisory or management services. The fact that you make infrequent trades (e.g., based on a "buy and hold" strategy) does not mean your services are not "continuous and regular." Examples. You may provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for an account if you: (a) have discretionary authority to allocate client assets among various mutual funds; (b) do not have discretionary authority, but provide the same allocation services, and satisfy the criteria set forth in Instruction 5.b.(3); (c) allocate assets among other managers (a "manager of managers"), but only ifyou have discretionary authority to hire and fire managers and reallocate assets among them; or (d) you are a broker-dealer and treat the account as a brokerage account, but only if you have discretionary authority over the account. You do not provide continuous and regular supervisory or management services for an account if you:

( 4) Value of Regulatory Assets Under Management. Determine your regulatory assets under management based on the current market value of the assets as determined within 90 days prior to the date of filing this Form ADV. Determine market value using the same method you used to report account values to clients or to calculate fees for investment advisory services. In the case of a private fund, determine the current market value (or fair value) of the private fund's assets and the contractual amount of any uncalled commitment pursuant to which a person is obligated to acquire an interest in, or make a capital contribution to, the private fund. (5) Example. This is an example of the method of determining whether an account of a client other than a private fund may be included as regulatory assets under management. The client's portfolio consists of the following: $ 6,000,000 stocks and bonds $ 1,000,000 cash and cash equivalents $ 3,000,000 non-securities (collectibles, commodities, real estate, etc.) $10 000 000 Total Assets First, is the account a securities portfolio? The account is a securities portfolio because securities as well as cash and cash equivalents (which you have chosen to include as securities) ($6,000,000 + $1,000,000 = $7,000,000) comprise at least 50% of the value of the account (here, 70%). (See Instruction 5.b(1)). Second, does the account receive continuous and regular supervisory or management services? The entire account is managed on a discretionary basis and is provided ongoing supervisory and management services, and therefore receives continuous and regular supervisory or management services. (See Instruction 5.b.(3)). Third, what is the entire value of the account? The entire value of the account ($10,000,000) is included in the calculation ofthe adviser's total regulatory assets under management.

Item 7: Financial Industry Affiliations and Private Fund Reporting Item 7.A. and Section 7.A. of ScheduleD ask questions about you and your related persons' financial industry affiliation. If you are filing an umbrella registration, you should not check Item 7.A.(2) with respect to your relying advisers, and you do not have to complete Section 7.A. in ScheduleD for your relying advisers. You should complete ScheduleR with respect to your relying advisers. Item 7.B. and Section 7.B. of ScheduleD ask questions about the private funds that you advise. You are required to complete a Section 7.B.(1) of ScheduleD for each private fund that you advise, except in certain circumstances described under Item 7 .B. and below. a. If your principal office and place of business is outside the United States, for purposes of Item 7 and Section 7.B. of ScheduleD you may disregard any private fund that, during your last fiscal year, was not a United States person, was not offered in the United States, and was not beneficially owned by any United States person. b. When filing Section 7.B.(1) of ScheduleD for a private fund, you must acquire an identification number for the fund by logging onto the lARD website and using the private fund identification number generator. You must continue to use the same identification number whenever you amend Section 7.B.(l) for that fund. If you file a Section 7 .B. (I) for a private fund for which an identification number has already been acquired by another adviser, you must not acquire a new identification number, but must instead utilize the existing number. If you choose to complete a single Section 7.B.(1) for a master-feeder arrangement under instruction 6.d. below, you must acquire an identification number also for each feeder fund. c. If any private fund has issued two or more series (or classes) of equity interests whose values are determined with respect to separate portfolios of securities and other assets, then each such series (or class) should be regarded as a separate private fund. In Section 7.B.(l) and 7.B.(2) of ScheduleD, next to the name of the private .fimd, list the name and identification number of the specific series (or class) for which you are filing the sections. This only applies with respect to series (or classes) that you manage as if they were separate funds and not a fund's side pockets or similar arrangements. d. In the case of a master-feeder arrangement (see questions 6-7 of Section 7.B.(1) of Schedule D), instead of completing a Section 7.B.(l) for each of the master fund and each feeder fund, you may complete a single Section 7.B.(1) for the master-feeder arrangement under the name of the master fund if the answers to questions 8, 10, 21 and 23 through 28 are the same for all of the feeder funds (or, in the case of questions 24 and 25, if the feeder funds do not use a prime broker or custodian). Ifyou choose to complete a single Section 7.B.(l), you should disregard the feeder funds, except for the following: (1) Question 11: State the gross assets for the master-feeder arrangement as a whole. (2) Question 12: List the lowest minimum investment commitment applicable to any of the master fund and the feeder funds.

A commodity pool is categorized as a hedge fund solely for purposes of this question. For purposes of this definition, do not net long and short positions.

C1–2015–12778 Filed 7–1–15; 08:45 am] BILLING CODE 1505–01–C DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES Food and Drug Administration 21 CFR Part 601 [Docket No. FDA–2015–N–2103] Removal of Review and Reclassification Procedures for Biological Products Licensed Prior to July 1, 1972 AGENCY: Food and Drug Administration, HHS. ACTION: Proposed rule. SUMMARY: The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) proposes to remove two regulations that prescribe procedures for FDA’s review and classification of biological products licensed before July 1, 1972. FDA is taking this action because the two regulations are obsolete and no longer necessary in light of other statutory and regulatory authorities established since 1972, which allow FDA to evaluate and monitor the safety and effectiveness of all biological products. In addition, other statutory and regulatory authorities authorize FDA to revoke a license for products because they are not safe and effective, or are misbranded. FDA is taking this action as part of its retrospective review of its regulations to promote improvement and innovation. DATES: Submit either written or electronic comments on the proposed rule by September 30, 2015.
