The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is requesting approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to extend the information collection related to an exemption for certain transactions in money market funds. This exemption, issued in 2015, allows broker-dealers to send transaction information to investors on a monthly basis instead of immediately, in specific cases. As of the end of 2023, around 206 broker-dealers would need to provide these notifications, and the SEC estimates this will only require about 1.8 hours of work per broker-dealer each year. The public is invited to comment on this request by March 31, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The SEC is asking if it's okay to keep letting some people send reports about money they manage once a month instead of right away, and they want to know what people think about this by March 31, 2025.
