The amendments adopted in
Release No. 33-10532 address disclosure requirements that have
become redundant, duplicative, overlapping, outdated, or superseded
as a result of other Commission disclosure requirements, U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, International Financial
Reporting Standards, or changes in the information environment. The
purpose of the rule amendments is to facilitate the disclosure of
information to investors, while simplifying and updating disclosure
requirements, without significantly altering the total mix of
information provided to investors. We anticipate that the
amendments will decrease the burdens and costs for registrants to
prepare and review filings for many forms and will increase the
burden and costs for a limited number of forms. For purposes of the
PRA, we estimate that the amendments to Form 1-SA will result in a
net increase of 28 burden hours. We have not provided an estimate
for professional cost changes because we have assumed that the
changes will only impact the internal efforts to respond to the
collection of information.
