    The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) have extended the deadline for compliance with the new amendments to Form PF from March 12, 2025, to June 12, 2025. Form PF is a confidential reporting form that certain investment advisers to private funds, who are registered with the SEC and possibly with the CFTC, must fill out. The extension aims to address challenges like the need to file data under two different versions of the form, which raised issues for advisers. The new deadline also provides more time for affected parties to adapt to the changes and to ensure accurate data collection and reporting.

    Simple Explanation

    The CFTC and SEC decided to give extra time for some financial helpers to fill out a special form, moving the deadline from March to June 2025, so they don’t have to rush and can do a better job.

    The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is seeking public comments on extending a rule that allows investment funds to invest in certain securities-related businesses, even though there's a general prohibition against it. This rule is important because it helps funds make investments without giving too much power to certain advisers. The SEC estimates that 49 funds will need to update their contracts each year to comply with this rule, and it will take about 3 hours for legal work, shared among similar rules. Public comments on this matter can be sent by June 17, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The SEC wants to hear what people think about a rule that lets some special groups invest in certain money-making businesses, even though it’s normally not allowed. They think about 49 groups will need to make some updates each year, and it's a bit like when you have to update a special rule book.
