Securities and Exchange Commission October 5, 2021 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') is requesting comment on potential technical changes related to how entities and individuals access the Commission's Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval system (``EDGAR'') to make submissions, and how these entities and individuals (``filers'') manage the permissions of individuals who may file on EDGAR on their behalf. Individuals who seek to file on EDGAR on behalf of a filer would be directed to a third-party service provider to create individual user account credentials and to enable multifactor authentication. Each filer would designate a ``filer administrator''analogous to the current filer contact person who receives the filer's EDGAR access codesto manage the permissions of the filer's individual users through a new filer management tool on EDGAR.
