ACTION: Final rule. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- SUMMARY: The Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is adopting revisions to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval System (EDGAR) Filer Manual and related rules to reflect updates to the EDGAR system. The updates are being made primarily to support the 2016 XBRL taxonomies; add new submission form types SBSE, SBSE/A, SBSE-A, SBSE-A/A, SBSE-BD, SBSE-BD/A, SBSE-C and SBSE-W pursuant to Section 15F of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act) and Rules 15Fb1-1 through 15Fb6-2 thereunder; add submission form types 17HACON, 17HACON/A, 17HQCON and 17HQCON/A pursuant to Rules 17h-1T and 17h-2T under the Exchange Act; and permit a value of zero in addition to the currently allowable numeric values in the ``Current Number of Employees'' field on the ``Disclosure Requirements'' screen of the Regulation Crowdfunding submission form types C, C/A and C-U. The EDGAR system was upgraded to support the new 2016 XBRL taxonomies on March 7, 2016. The EDGAR system is scheduled to be upgraded to support the other functionalities on April 25, 2016. DATES: Effective May 19, 2016 The incorporation by reference of the EDGAR Filer Manual is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as of May 19, 2016. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: In the Division of Trading and Markets, for questions concerning Form SBSE, Form SBSE-A, Form SBSE-BD, Form SBSE-C, Form SBSE-W, and Form 17-H, contact Kathy Bateman at (202) 551-4345; in the Division of Corporation Finance, for questions concerning Form C, contact Vik Sheth at (202) 551-3818; and in the Division of Economic and Risk Analysis, for questions concerning XBRL taxonomies, contact Walter Hamscher at (202) 551-5397. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: We are adopting an updated EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II. The Filer Manual describes the technical formatting requirements for the preparation and submission of electronic filings through the EDGAR system.\1\ It also describes the requirements for filing using EDGARLink Online and the Online Forms/XML Web site. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \1\ We originally adopted the Filer Manual on April 1, 1993, with an effective date of April 26, 1993. Release No. 33-6986 (April 1, 1993) [58 FR 18638]. We implemented the most recent update to the Filer Manual on December 14, 2015. See Release No. 33-9987 (January 4, 2016) [81 FR 3]. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The revisions to the Filer Manual reflect changes within Volume II entitled EDGAR Filer Manual, Volume II: ``EDGAR Filing,'' Version 36 (April 2016). The updated manual will be incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations. The Filer Manual contains all the technical specifications for filers to submit filings using the EDGAR system. Filers must comply with the applicable provisions of the Filer Manual in order to assure the timely acceptance and processing of filings made in electronic format.\2\ Filers may consult the Filer Manual in conjunction with our rules governing mandated electronic filing when preparing documents for electronic submission.\3\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \2\ See Rule 301 of Regulation S-T (17 CFR 232.301). \3\ See Release No. 33-9987 in which we implemented EDGAR Release 15.4. For additional history of Filer Manual rules, please see the cites therein. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The EDGAR system will be upgraded to Release 16.1 on April 25, 2016 and will introduce the following changes: Pursuant to Section 15F of the Exchange Act and Rules 15Fb1-1 through 15Fb6-2 thereunder, Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants will be able to electronically register, amend their [[Page 31502]] registration and withdraw from their registration with the Commission using the following submission form types:SBSE: Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants SBSE/A: Amendment to an Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants SBSE-A: Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants that are Registered or Registering with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a Swap Dealer or Major Swap Participant SBSE-A/A: Amendment to an Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants that are Registered or Registering with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a Swap Dealer or Major Swap Participant SBSE-BD: Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants that are Registered Broker-dealers SBSE-BD/A: Amendment to an Application for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants that are Registered Broker-dealers SBSE-C: Certifications for Registration of Security-based Swap Dealers and Major Security-based Swap Participants SBSE-W: Request for Withdrawal from Registration as Security-based Swap Dealer or Major Security-based Swap Participant These submission form types can be accessed by clicking the ``File SBSE'' link on the EDGAR Filing Web site. Additionally, filers can construct XML submissions for SBSE, SBSE/A, SBSE-A, SBSE-A/A, SBSE-BD, SBSE-BD/A, SBSE-C, and SBSE-W by following the ``EDGAR Form SBSE XML Technical Specification'' document located on the SEC's Public Web site (http://www.sec.gov/info/edgar.shtml). Pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 17h-1T and 17h-2T, broker-dealers that choose to file electronically will now submit the Risk Assessment Report for Brokers and Dealers Form 17-H via EDGAR using the following submission form types: 17HACON: Confidential broker dealer annual 17-H report 17HACON/A: Amendment for confidential broker dealer annual 17-H report 17HQCON: Confidential broker dealer quarterly 17-H report 17HQCON/A: Amendment for confidential broker dealer quarterly 17-H report These submission form types can be accessed by clicking the ``File 17-H'' link on the EDGAR Filing Web site. Additionally, broker-dealers can construct XML submissions for 17HACON, 17HACON/A, 17HQCON, and 17HQCON/A by following the ``EDGAR Form 17-H XML Technical Specification'' document located on the SEC's Public Web site (http://www.sec.gov/info/edgar.shtml). The ``Current Number of Employees'' field on the ``Disclosure Requirements'' screen of the Regulation Crowdfunding submission form types C, C/A, and C-U has been updated to permit a value of zero in addition to the currently allowable numeric values. On March 7, 2016, the EDGAR system was upgraded to Release 16.0.3 and now supports the 2016 US GAAP, 2016 COUNTRY, 2016 CURRENCY and 2016 EXCH taxonomies. Please see http://sec.gov/info/edgar/edgartaxonomies.shtml for the complete listing of supported standard taxonomies. Along with the adoption of the Filer Manual, we are amending Rule 301 of Regulation S-T to provide for the incorporation by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations of today's revisions. This incorporation by reference was approved by the Director of the Federal Register in accordance with 5 U.S.C. 552(a) and 1 CFR part 51. The updated EDGAR Filer Manual will be available for Web site viewing and printing; the address for the Filer Manual is http://www.sec.gov/info/edgar.shtml. You may also obtain paper copies of the EDGAR Filer Manual from the following address: Public Reference Room, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549, on official business days between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. Since the Filer Manual and the corresponding rule changes relate solely to agency procedures or practice, publication for notice and comment is not required under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA).\4\ It follows that the requirements of the Regulatory Flexibility Act \5\ do not apply. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \4\ 5 U.S.C. 553(b). \5\ 5 U.S.C. 601-612. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The effective date for the updated Filer Manual and the rule amendments is May 19, 2016. In accordance with the APA,\6\ we find that there is good cause to establish an effective date less than 30 days after publication of these rules. The EDGAR system upgrade to Release 16.1 is scheduled to become available on April 25, 2016. The Commission believes that establishing an effective date less than 30 days after publication of these rules is necessary to coordinate the effectiveness of the updated Filer Manual with these system upgrades. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \6\ 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3). --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statutory Basis We are adopting the amendments to Regulation S-T under Sections 6, 7, 8, 10, and 19(a) of the Securities Act of 1933,\7\ Sections 3, 12, 13, 14, 15, 23, and 35A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,\8\ Section 319 of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939,\9\ and Sections 8, 30, 31, and 38 of the Investment Company Act of 1940.\10\ --------------------------------------------------------------------------- \7\ 15 U.S.C. 77f, 77g, 77h, 77j, and 77s(a). \8\ 15 U.S.C. 78c, 78l, 78m, 78n, 78o, 78w, and 78ll. \9\ 15 U.S.C. 77sss. \10\ 15 U.S.C. 80a-8, 80a-29, 80a-30, and 80a-37. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- List of Subjects in 17 CFR Part 232 Incorporation by reference, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Securities.
