Burden increases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Increase Due to: Changing Regulations

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The amendments revise the financial statement and non-financial information and delivery requirements (including the requirement to provide the purchaser with generic solicitation materials), provide an additional method to verify an investor’s accredited investor status, and raise the offering limit under Rule 504. We estimate for purposes of the PRA that there is no net effect on the current burden hours per response relating to Regulation D as a result of the amendments. However, we are establishing a single collection of information for Regulation D (Form D) to encompass all of the associated paperwork burdens under Regulation D. The estimates for this new collection of information include the existing burden estimated for Form D, Rule 504(b)(3), and Rule 506(e), as well as other burdens resulting from the implementation of Regulation D. For purposes of the PRA, we estimate the new Regulation D (Form D) collection of information to be 29,464 burden hours and $35,356,500 for the services of outside professionals.
