SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 

100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 

20549–2736 

Extension: 

Form 13F, SEC File No. 270–022, OMB 

Control No. 3235–0006 

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.), the Securities 

and Exchange Commission (the 

‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the 

Office of Management and Budget a 

request for extension of the previously 

approved collection of information 

discussed below. 

Section 13(f) 1 of the Securities 

Exchange Act of 1934 2 (the ‘‘Exchange 

Act’’) empowers the Commission to: (1) 

Adopt rules that create a reporting and 

disclosure system to collect specific 

information; and (2) disseminate such 

information to the public. Rule 13f–1 3

under the Exchange Act requires 

institutional investment managers that 

exercise investment discretion over 

accounts that have in the aggregate a fair 

market value of at least $100,000,000 of 

certain U.S. exchange-traded equity 

securities, as set forth in rule 13f–1(c), 

to file quarterly reports with the 

Commission on Form 13F.4

The information collection 

requirements apply to institutional 

investment managers that meet the $100 

million reporting threshold. Section 

13(f)(6)(A) of the Exchange Act defines 

an ‘‘institutional investment manager’’ 

as any person, other than a natural 

person, investing in or buying and 

selling securities for its own account, 

and any person exercising investment 

discretion with respect to the account of 

any other person. Rule 13f–1(b) under 

the Exchange Act defines ‘‘investment 

discretion’’ for purposes of Form 13F 

reporting. 

The reporting system required by 

Section 13(f) of the Exchange Act is 

intended, among other things, to create 

in the Commission a central repository 

of historical and current data about the 

investment activities of institutional 

investment managers, and to improve 

the body of factual data available to 

regulators and the public. 

The Commission staff estimates that 

5,837 respondents make approximately 

23,348 responses under the rule each 

year. The staff estimates that on average, 

Form 13F filers spend 80.8 hours/year 

to prepare and submit the report. In 

addition, the staff estimates that 223 

respondents file approximately 829 

amendments each year. The staff 

estimates that on average, Form 13F 

filers spend 4 hours/year to prepare and 

submit amendments to Form 13F. The 

total annual burden of the rule’s 

requirements for all respondents 

therefore is estimated to be 472,521.6 

hours [(471,629.6 hours (5,837 filers × 

80.8 hours)) + (892 (223 filers × 4 

hours))]. 

The estimate of average burden hours 

is made solely for the purposes of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act. The estimate 

is not derived from a comprehensive or 

even a representative survey or study of 

the costs of Commission rules. An 

agency may not conduct or sponsor, and 

a person is not required to respond to, 

a collection of information unless it 

displays a currently valid control 

number. 

The public may view the background 

documentation for this information 

collection at the following website, 

www.reginfo.gov. Comments should be 

directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the 

Securities and Exchange Commission, 

Office of Information and Regulatory 

Affairs, Office of Management and 

Budget, Room 10102, New Executive 

Office Building, Washington, DC 20503, 

or by sending an email to: Shagufta_

Ahmed@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) Pamela 

Dyson, Director/Chief Information 

Officer, Securities and Exchange 

Commission, c/o Candace Kenner, 100 F 

Street NE, Washington, DC 20549 or 

send an email to: PRA_Mailbox@

sec.gov. Comments must be submitted to 

OMB within 30 days of this notice. 

Dated: June 18, 2018.

Assistant Secretary.
