Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 217 / Monday, November 13, 2023 / Notices
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Several sections of the Investment
Company Act of 1940 (‘‘Act’’ or
‘‘Investment Company Act’’) 1 give the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) the authority to issue
orders granting exemptions from the
Act’s provisions. The section that grants
broadest authority is section 6(c), which
provides the Commission with authority
to conditionally or unconditionally
exempt persons, securities or
transactions from any provision of the
Investment Company Act, or the rules or
regulations thereunder, if and to the
extent that such exemption is necessary
or appropriate in the public interest and
consistent with the protection of
investors and the purposes fairly
intended by the policy and provisions of
the Act.2 Congress enacted section 6(c)
to give the Commission the flexibility to
address unforeseen or changed
circumstances in the investment
company industry. Rule 0–2 under the
Investment Company Act,3 entitled
‘‘General Requirements of Papers and
Applications,’’ prescribes general
instructions for filing an application
seeking exemptive relief with the
Commission.
Rule 0–2(c)(1) requires that every
application for an order for which a
form is not specifically prescribed and
which is executed by a corporation,
partnership or other company and filed
with the Commission contain a
statement of the applicable provisions of
the articles of incorporation, bylaws or
similar documents, relating to the right
of the person signing and filing such
application to take such action on behalf
of the applicant, and a statement that all
such requirements have been complied
with and that the person signing and
filing the application is fully authorized
to do so. If such authorization is
dependent on resolutions of
stockholders, directors, or other bodies,
such resolutions must be attached as an
exhibit to or quoted in the application.
Any amendment to the application must
contain a similar statement as to the
applicability of the original statement of
authorization. When any application or
amendment is signed by an agent or
attorney, rule 0–2(c)(1) requires that the

power of attorney evidencing his
authority to sign shall state the basis for
the agent’s authority and shall be filed
with the Commission. Every application
subject to rule 0–2 must be verified by
the person executing the application by
executing an instrument in substantially
the form specified in the rule. Each
application subject to rule 0–2 must
state the reasons why the applicant is
deemed to be entitled to the action
requested, the name and address of each
applicant, and the name and address of
any person to whom any questions
regarding the application should be
directed. Electronic filing of all
applications for orders under the
Investment Company Act is mandatory.
Each application subject to rule 0–2 is
a one-time request and the rule itself
does not impose any ongoing
obligations or burdens on the part of an
applicant.
Based on historical filing data and
estimates of the annual number of
filings, the staff estimates that the
Commission will receive roughly 112
applications for an exemptive order per
year, and that each such applications
will take an average of 20.25 hours of inhouse attorney time as well as total
external costs of $92,000.
These estimates of average costs are
made solely for the purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act. The estimate
is not derived from a comprehensive or
even a representative survey or study of
the costs of Commission rules.
This collection of information is
necessary to obtain a benefit and will
not be kept confidential. An agency may
not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection
of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.

documentation for this information
collection at the following website:
www.reginfo.gov. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
