Short Statement:
On June 16, 2010, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission proposed amendments to rule 482 under the Securities Act of 1933 that, if adopted, would require a target date retirement fund that includes the target date in its name to disclose the funds asset allocation at the target date immediately adjacent to the first use of the funds name in marketing materials. The Commission also proposed amendments to rule 482 that, if adopted, would require marketing materials for target date retirement funds to include a table, chart, or graph depicting the funds asset allocation over time, together with a statement that would highlight the funds final asset allocation. In addition, the Commission proposed to amend rule 482 to require a statement in marketing materials to the effect that a target date retirement fund should not be selected based solely on age or retirement date, is not a guaranteed investment, and the stated asset allocations may be subject to change. The amendments are intended to provide enhanced information to investors concerning target date retirement funds and reduce the potential for investors to be confused or misled regarding these and other investment companies. We estimate a net decrease of 155,915 burden hours per year for rule 482 from the previous PRA submission. This change is due to a decrease in the estimated number of annual responses from 89,077 to 58,368 (resulting in a decrease of 158,458 burden hours based on the previous estimate of 5.16 hours per response), offset slightly by the impact of the increase in the hour burden per response from approximately 5.16 hours per response to approximately 5.20 hours per response as a result of the proposed amendments (resulting in an increase of 2,543 burden hours).
