SEC Proposes Greater Reporting from Hedge Fund Advisors

Advisers to hedge funds and private equity firms will likely have to report key information to regulators in the near future. The Securities and Exchange Commission proposed increasing the information available to the Financial Stability Oversight Council on hedge funds and private equity advisers.

Advisers to hedge funds and other private funds would have to report key information to regulators under a rule proposed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday.

The proposal, required by the Dodd-Frank Wall Street reform law, would arm the newly formed Financial Stability Oversight Council with better information about hedge funds and other private pools of capital to ensure their trading activities do not pose a risk to the broader marketplace.

The new regulations would impose new requirements on the relatively lightly regulated private fund industry. Source
