“Rule 22c-2 requires the board of directors (including a majority of independent directors) of most registered investment companies (“funds”) to either approve a redemption fee of up to two percent or determine that imposition of a redemption fee is not necessary or appropriate for the fund. Rule 22c-2 also requires a fund to enter into written agreements with their financial intermediaries (such as broker-dealers and retirement plan administrators) under which the fund, upon request, can obtain certain shareholder identity and trading information from the intermediaries. The written agreement must also allow the fund to direct the intermediary to prohibit further purchases or exchanges by specific shareholders that the fund has identified as being engaged in transactions that violate the fund’s market timing policies. These requirements enable funds to obtain the information that they need to monitor the frequency of short term trading in omnibus accounts and enforce their market timing policies.”

There have been significant decreases in the estimates of burden hours and costs for rule 22c-2. The decrease primarily results from the rule having been adopted and the start-up and initial implementation costs and time having been previously expended. In contrast, this renewal only reflects the ongoing hourly burden and costs for existing funds, and the initial hourly burden and costs for new entrants. Accordingly, the estimated hour burden has decreased to 26,413 hours from a previously estimated 2,429,500 hours, a decrease of 2,403,087 hours. Similarly, the estimated cost burden has decreased to $31,440,000 from $363,030,000, a decrease of $331,590,000
