SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[SEC File No. 270-811, OMB Control No. 3235-0767]
Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request; Extension: Rule 204-5
Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549-2736
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.
The title for the collection of information is: ``Rule 204-5 under
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.'' Rule 204-5 requires an
investment adviser to deliver an electronic or paper version of the
relationship summary to each retail investor before or at the time the
adviser enters into an investment advisory contract with the retail
investor. The purpose of the relationship summary is to assist retail
investors in making an informed choice when choosing an investment firm
and professional, and type of account. Retail investors can use the
information required in the relationship summary to determine whether
to hire or retain an investment adviser, as well as what types of
accounts and services are appropriate for their needs.
We estimate the total collection of information burden for rule
204-5 to be 1,137,413 annual aggregate hours per year, or 124 hours per
respondent, for a total annual aggregate monetized cost of $77,344,061,
or $8,402 per adviser.
The likely respondents to this information collection are
approximately 9,205 investment advisers registered with the Commission
that are required to deliver a relationship summary to retail investors
pursuant to rule 204-5. We also note
[[Page 69353]]
that these figures include the 325 registered broker-dealers that are
dually registered as investment advisers.
The requirements of this collection of information are mandatory.
Responses will not be kept confidential. 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 background documentation for this information
collection at the following website: <a href="http://www.reginfo.gov">www.reginfo.gov</a>. Find this
particular information collection by selecting ``Currently under 30-day
Review--Open for Public Comments'' or by using the search function.
Written comments and recommendations for the proposed information
collection should be sent within 30 days of publication of this notice
by December 19, 2022 to (i) <a href="/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection#7e333c265031333c5031372c3f502d3b3d211a1b0d1521111818171d1b0c3e11131c501b110e50191108"><span class="__cf_email__" data-cfemail="4e030c166001030c6001071c0f601d0b0d112a2b3d2511212828272d2b3c0e21232c602b213e60292138">[email protected]</span></a>
