Form N-PORT and Form N-CEN Reporting; Guidance on Open-End Fund Liquidity Risk Management Programs

The Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) is adopting amendments to reporting requirements on Forms N-PORT and N-CEN that apply to certain registered investment companies, including registered open-end funds, registered closed-end funds, and unit investment trusts. The amendments will require more frequent reporting of monthly portfolio holdings and related information to the Commission and the public, amend certain reporting requirements relating to entity identifiers, and require open-end funds to report information about service providers used to comply with liquidity risk management program requirements. In addition, the Commission is providing guidance related to open-end fund liquidity risk management program requirements.
