SEC Considering Changing Rule Changes for Brokers, Advisers, Funds

July 20, 2011

When SEC Commissioners meet on 7/26/11, they will tackle a broad agenda that includes new or amended rules governing large traders, private and asset-backed offerings and institutional advisers.  The Open Meeting is scheduled for 11 a.m., in the Auditorium, Room L-002.  Here's the line-up: 

Item 1:  Adoption of Rule 13h-1 and Form 13H under Section 13(h) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("SEA"), to establish a large trader reporting system to identify market participants that conduct a substantial amount of trading activity and collect information on their trading.

Item 2:   Adoption of amendments to rules and forms under the Securities Act of 1933 ("33Act") and Schedule 14A under the SEA, to replace references to credit ratings with alternative criteria.  These amendments are mandated under Dodd-Frank.  

Item 3:   Re-proposal of rules related to shelf-eligibility for asset-backed securities (ABS's) and request additional comment on an outstanding proposal to require asset-level information about pool assets.

Item 4:   Adoption of rule and form amendments under the SEA and the Investment Company Act of 1940 to require an institutional investment manager that is subject to Section 13(f) of the SEA to report annually how it voted proxies relating to executive compensation matters as required by Section 14A of the SEA, which was added by Dodd-Frank.
