Adjustments to Civil Monetary Penalty Amounts
This rule implements the Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990, as amended by the Debt Collection Improvement Act of 1996. The Commission is adopting a rule adjusting for inflation the maximum amount of civil monetary penalties under the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, and certain penalties under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.
XBRL Voluntary Financial Reporting Program on the EDGAR System
We are adopting rule amendments to enable registrants to submit voluntarily supplemental tagged financial information using the eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) format as exhibits to specified EDGAR filings under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Company Act of 1940. Registrants choosing to participate in the voluntary program also will continue to file their financial information in HTML or ASCII format, as currently required. To participate in the program, volunteers need to submit their XBRL formatted information in accordance with the amendments. The voluntary program is intended to help us evaluate the usefulness of data tagging and XBRL to registrants, investors, the Commission and the marketplace.
Adoption of Updated EDGAR Filer Manual
The Securities and Exchange Commission (the Commission) is adopting revisions to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval System (EDGAR) Filer Manual to reflect updates to the EDGAR system. The revisions are being made primarily to support a voluntary program that would allow the submission of eXtensible Business Reporting Language (XBRL) documents to assess the usefulness of data tagging in general and XBRL in particular. Revisions are also being made to provide support for the new requirement for filers to enter an effectiveness date on submission types 485BPOS and 486BPOS; addition of new Exhibit EX-99.Rule23C1 for Form N-CSR and rescinding of submission types N-23C-1 and N-23C-1/A; changes to submission form type 25, which the Commission has proposed to be filed electronically by a national securities exchange to delist and/or deregister a class of securities under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and by an issuer to voluntarily remove a class of securities from listing on a national securities exchange and/or registration under Section 12(b); and the list of Self-Regulatory Organizations in Appendix C section C.1.5 of the EDGAR Release 8.10 EDGARLink Filer Manual has been updated to show the name change of Cincinnati Stock Exchange to National Stock Exchange. The revisions to the Filer Manual reflect changes within Volumes I, II and III, entitled ``EDGAR Release 8.10 EDGARLink Filer Manual,'' ``EDGAR Release 8.10 N-SAR Supplement Filer Manual,'' and ``EDGAR Release 8.10 OnlineForms Filer Manual'' respectively. The updated manual will be incorporated by reference into the Code of Federal Regulations.
