The Securities and Exchange Commission has received an application from The RBB Fund, Inc., Red Gate Advisers, LLC, and Herald Investment Marketing, LLC for an exemption that would allow certain Shielded Alpha ETFs to issue and redeem shares only in large groups, permit trading at market prices rather than net asset value, and allow certain affiliated transactions. The goal is to align with a previous order's conditions to enable the operation of Shielded Alpha ETFs. A hearing request can be made before February 25, 2021, if there are concerns about the proposed exemptions.

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) is asking for public comments on a proposed extension of its information collection under Rule 17a-8, which relates to mergers of affiliated investment companies. This rule allows certain mergers to bypass restrictions on transactions between a fund and its affiliates, and it requires directors to evaluate and document key aspects of such mergers. The SEC estimates that this rule affects around 200 funds annually, resulting in a total burden of 1,400 hours and a cost of over $3 million. The public can submit comments on the necessity and burden of these requirements until February 18, 2025.
