Abstract: Rule 203-2 (17 CFR § 275.203-2) under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 establishes procedures for an investment adviser to withdraw its registration, or a pending registration application, with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) and requires every person withdrawing from investment adviser registration with the Commission to file Form ADV-W electronically on the Investment Adviser Registration Depository. A copy of Form ADV-W must be preserved in the investment adviser’s records. The potential respondents to this information collection are investment advisers registered with the Commission that withdraw their registrations or pending registrations with the Commission. The collection of information constitutes a reporting requirement and is necessary to ensure that the Commission and the public are notified when each of these investment advisers withdraws its registration.
