Certain registered investment companies and business development companies ("BDCs") are required to submit to the Commission in Inline XBRL format certain information that is disclosed in their registration statements, post-effective amendments thereto, prospectuses filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) and Rule 497(c) or (e) under the Securities Act, and Exchange Act reports that are incorporated by reference into a registration statement, and, for BDCs, their financial statements, pursuant to specified form and rule requirements .
On October 13, 2021, the Commission adopted rules modifying most fee-bearing forms, schedules, statements, and related rules to require all fee calculation disclosure information in a filing fee exhibit that will be structured in Inline XBRL. In particular, amended Forms Nâ2 and N-14 and new Rule 408 of Regulation SâT will require (non-interval) registered closed-end investment companies and BDCs to tag their filing fee exhibits in Inline XBRL.
The estimated annual burden hours associated with the Investment Company Interactive Data collection of information has increased from 252,684 hours to 271,578 hours (an increase of 18,894 hours). In addition, the external cost burden associated with the Investment Company Interactive Data collection of information has increased from $15,449,450 to $17,127,750 (an increase of $1,678,300). The changes in annual burden hours and external cost burden are due to our proposed amendments to investment company registration statement forms requiring a description of any significant fund cybersecurity incident that has occurred in the fundâs last two fiscal years.
