Rule 30b2–1, SEC File No. 270–213, OMB
Control No. 3235–0220.
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’’) is soliciting comments
on the collection of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit the existing collection

of information to the Office of
Management and Budget (‘‘OMB’’) for
extension and approval.
Rule 30b2–1 (17 CFR 270.30b2–1)
under the Investment Company Act of
1940 (15 U.S.C. 80a–1 et seq.) (the
‘‘Investment Company Act’’) requires a
registered investment company (‘‘fund’’)
to (1) File a report with the Commission
on Form N–CSR (17 CFR 249.331 and
274.128) not later than 10 days after the
transmission of any report required to
be transmitted to shareholders under
rule 30e–1 under the Investment
Company Act, and (2) file with the
Commission a copy of every periodic or
interim report or similar communication
containing financial statements that is
transmitted by or on behalf of such fund
to any class of such fund’s security
holders and that is not required to be
filed with the Commission under (1),
not later than 10 days after the
transmission to security holders. The
purpose of the collection of information
required by rule 30b2–1 is to meet the
disclosure requirements of the
Investment Company Act and
certification requirements of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Pub. L.
107–204, 116 Stat. 745 (2002)), and to
provide investors with information
necessary to evaluate an interest in the
fund.
The Commission estimates that there
are 2,520 funds, with a total of 9,250
portfolios, that are governed by the rule.
For purposes of this analysis, the
burden associated with the
requirements of rule 30b2–1 has been
included in the collection of
information requirements of rule 30e–1
and Form N–CSR, rather than the rule.
The Commission has, however,
requested a one hour burden for
administrative purposes.
The collection of information under
rule 30b2–1 is mandatory. The
information provided under rule 30b2–
1 is not 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 OMB control
number.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate
of the burden of the collection of
information; (c) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information collected; and (d) ways to
minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including
through the use of automated collection
