Form N-CSR is a combined reporting
form used by management investment companies to file certified
shareholder reports under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (15
U.S.C. 80a-1 et seq.) ("Investment Company Act") and under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (Securities
Exchange Act"). Form N-CSR is to be used for reports under section
30(b)(2) of the Investment Company Act and section 13(a) or 15(d)
of the Securities Exchange Act, filed pursuant to rule 30b2-1(a)
under the Investment Company Act (17 CFR 270.30b2-1(a)).The
information provided on Form N-CSR may be used by the Commission in
its regulatory disclosure review, inspection, and policymaking
roles. The information filed with the Commission also permits the
verification of compliance with securities law requirements and
assures the public availability and dissemination of the
information. On May 3, 2023, the Commission adopted amendments to
modernize and improve the disclosure requirements, including those
pursuant to Form N-CSR, for repurchases of an issuer’s equity
securities that are registered under the Securities Exchange
Act.
US Code:

USC 78m Name of Law: Securities Exchange Act of 1934
US Code: 15
USC 78o Name of Law: Securities Exchange Act of 1934
US Code: 15
USC 80a-29 Name of Law: Investment Company Act of 1940
The final amendments as they
relate to Form N-CSR require additional disclosure regarding the
structure of the repurchases and repurchase programs of closed-end
funds whose shares are listed on a national securities exchange
(“listed closed-end funds”); require a new checkbox to indicate if
certain of the listed closed-end fund’s officers or directors
purchased or sold the fund’s equity securities within four business
days of the announcement of a related issuer repurchase program;
and require share repurchase information to be reported using a
structured data language. Further, these amendments will require
listed closed-end funds to provide more detailed disclosure than
previously required by requiring daily details rather than
aggregated monthly data. As a result of these proposed amendments,
for purposes of the PRA, we estimate that, for Form N-CSR, the
proposed amendments would result in an increase of 900 burden hours
and $180,000 for the services of outside professionals.
