The EDGAR Filer Management Dashboard
is an interactive function on EDGAR where electronic filers manage
their EDGAR accounts and individuals that electronic filers
authorize may take relevant actions for the electronic filers’
accounts.
On September 13, 2023, the
Commission proposed rule and form amendments concerning access to
and management of accounts on EDGAR that are related to potential
technical changes to EDGAR (collectively referred to as “EDGAR
Next”). If the proposed rule and form changes are adopted, filers
would be required to obtain individual account credentials and
comply with certain account access and management requirements by
taking action on a new filer management tool, the EDGAR Filer
Management Dashboard (“the dashboard”), available on EDGAR.
Moreover, certain additional disclosure obligations would be
required on the Form ID application for access. The proposed
revisions to Form ID also would result in a more uniform and secure
process for requesting EDGAR access by requiring submission of a
new Form ID if the applicant claims to already have an
identification number (CIK) but no longer has access to EDGAR. The
proposed amendments would also simplify filer account management by
eliminating certain EDGAR access codes that would no longer be
necessary due to the use of individual account credentials. The
EDGAR Next proposed rule and form amendments also include
implementation of the dashboard, an interactive function on EDGAR
where electronic filers would manage their EDGAR accounts and where
individuals that electronic filers would authorize could take
relevant actions for the electronic filers’ accounts. We estimate
that each filer would spend approximately one hour setting up the
dashboard, and approximately one hour per annum managing the
filer’s account on the dashboard. This burden would vary across
filers depending on the size of the filer, the number of
individuals and entities the filer has authorized to act on the
dashboard on its behalf, as well as the amount of annual staff
turnover for those individuals and entities, among other factors.
Consequently, the anticipated total annual burden attributed to the
dashboard would be approximately 220,000 burden hours.
