VerDate Aug<18>2005 16:06 Sep 12, 2005 Jkt 205001 Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange Commission, Office of Filings and Information Services, Washington, DC 20549. Revision and Extension: Rule 203A–2; SEC File No. 270–501; OMB Control No. 3235–0559 Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) (‘‘PRA’’) the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget requests for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below. Rule 203A–2(f), which is entitled ‘‘Internet Investment Advisers,’’ exempts from the prohibition on Commission registration an Internet investment adviser who provides investment advice to all of its clients exclusively through computer softwarebased models or applications termed under the rule as ‘‘interactive PO 00000 Frm 00091 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 54095 websites.’’ 1 These advisers generally would not meet the statutory thresholds set out in section 203A of the Advisers Act—they do not manage $25 million or more in assets and do not advise registered investment companies.2 Eligibility under rule 203A–2(f) is conditioned on an adviser maintaining in an easily accessible place, for a period of not less than five years from the filing of Form ADV relying on the rule,3 a record demonstrating that the adviser’s advisory business has been conducted through an interactive website in accordance with the rule. This record maintenance requirement is a ‘‘collection of information’’ for PRA purposes. The Commission believes that approximately 25 advisers are registered with the Commission under rule 203A– 2(f), which involves a recordkeeping requirement manifesting in approximately four burden hours per year per adviser and results in an estimated 100 of total burden hours (4×25) for all advisers. This collection of information is mandatory, as it is used by Commission staff in its examination and oversight program in order to determine continued Commission registration eligibility of advisers registered under this rule. Responses generally are kept confidential pursuant to section 210(b) of the Advisers Act.4 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. General comments regarding the above information should be directed to the following persons: (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 e-mail to: David_Rostker@omb.eop.gov; and (ii) R. Corey Booth, Director/Chief Information Officer, Office of Information Technology, Securities and Exchange Commission, 100 F Street, NE., Washington, DC 20549. Comments must 1 17 CFR 275.203A–2(f). Included in rule 203A– 2(f) is a limited exception to the interactive website requirement which allows these advisers to provide investment advice to no more than 14 clients through other means on an annual basis. 17 CFR 275.203A–2(f)(1)(i). The rule also precludes advisers in a control relationship with the SECregistered Internet adviser from registering with the Commission under the common control exemption provided by rule 203A–2(c) [17 CFR 275.203A– 2(c)]. 17 CFR 275.203A–2(f)(1)(iii). 2 15 U.S.C. 80b–3a(a). 3 The five-year record retention period is the same recordkeeping retention period for all advisers imposed under rule 204–2 of the Adviser Act. See rule 204–2 [17 CFR 275.204–2]. 4 15 U.S.C. 80b–10(b). E:\FR\FM\13SEN1.SGM 13SEN1
