Rule 0-2 and Form ADV-NR require consent to service of process to be furnished by non-resident general partners and non-resident managing agents of SEC-registered investment advisers.
US Code:
15 USC 80b-1
Name of Law: Investment Advisers Act of 1940
PL:
Pub.L. 111 - 203 410
Name of Law: Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act
We estimate that Form ADV-NR will receive two additional annual responses due to the Dodd-Frank Act's amendments to the Advisers Act and the new requirement that exempt reporting advisers file amended Form ADV-NR. This will result in an increase in the total burden hours for all respondents from an estimated 18 hours per year to an estimated 20 hours per year.
