The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has amended Form PF (confidential reporting for SEC-registered investment advisers to private funds), requiring private equity funds to file within 60 days of every fiscal quarter for changes including removal of General Partner (GP), fund terminations, advisor-led secondary transaction, large private equity funds to file yearly on GP & LP (General Partner & Limited Partner) clawbacks, strategies & borrowings, and large hedge funds to file within 72 hours for extraordinary investment losses, material changes including margin, defaults, prime broker relationships, operations events, withdrawal & redemptions. United States SEC: “The amendments are designed to enhance the ability of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) to assess systemic risk and to bolster the Commission’s oversight of private fund advisers and its investor protection efforts. The amendments for current reporting will become effective 6 months after publication of the adopting release in the Federal Register, and the remaining amendments will become effective 1 year after publication in the Federal Register.” United States SEC Chair Gary Gensler: “In the 12 years since the Commission first adopted Form PF, private funds have evolved significantly in their business practices, complexity, and investment strategies. Private funds today are ever more interconnected with our broader capital markets. They also nearly have tripled in size in the last decade. This makes visibility into these funds ever more important. Today’s amendments to Form PF will enhance visibility into private funds and help protect investors and promote financial stability.” See below for full statement.

SEC Adopts Amendments to Enhance Private Fund Reporting
3rd May 2023 – The Securities and Exchange Commission today adopted amendments to Form PF, the confidential reporting form for certain SEC-registered investment advisers to private funds. The amendments are designed to enhance the ability of the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) to assess systemic risk and to bolster the Commission’s oversight of private fund advisers and its investor protection efforts.
The amendments will require large hedge fund advisers and all private equity fund advisers to file current reports upon the occurrence of certain reporting events that could indicate significant stress at a fund or investor harm. Reporting events for large hedge fund advisers include certain extraordinary investment losses, significant margin and default events, terminations or material restrictions of prime broker relationships, operations events, and events associated with withdrawals and redemptions. Large hedge fund advisers must file these reports as soon as practicable, but not later than 72 hours from the occurrence of the relevant event. Reporting events for private equity fund advisers include the removal of a general partner, certain fund termination events, and the occurrence of an adviser-led secondary transaction. Private equity fund advisers must file these reports on a quarterly basis within 60 days of the fiscal quarter end.
The amendments will also require large private equity fund advisers to report information on general partner and limited partner clawbacks on an annual basis as well as additional information on their strategies and borrowings as a part of their annual filing.
The amendments for current reporting will become effective six months after publication of the adopting release in the Federal Register, and the remaining amendments will become effective one year after publication in the Federal Register.
