Final Rule

Adoption of Updated EDGAR Filer Manual

Overview

The Securities and Exchange Commission ("the Commission') is adopting revisions to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval System ("EDGAR') Filer Manual and related rules to reflect updates to the EDGAR system. The updates are being made primarily to reflect amendments made to several forms under the Securities Act of 1933 ("Securities Act') and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act') to effectuate inflation adjustments and other technical amendments required under Titles I and III of the Jumpstart Our Business Startups ("JOBS') Act; support recent updates to Form C and Form D; includes instructions for hyperlinking to exhibits included with certain Securities Act and Exchange Act forms and makes certain corrective changes to previously revised sections. The revised EDGAR Filer Manual also announces updates to the technical specifications for the ABS-EE schema and terminates support for US-GAAP-2015, EXCH-2015, CURRENCY-2014, and COUNTRY-2013 taxonomies. The EDGAR system is scheduled to be upgraded on July 17, 2017.
