Short Statement:
The proposed rule amendments would revise the financial statement and non-financial information and delivery requirements (including requirement to provide the purchaser with generic solicitation materials), provide an additional method to verify an investor’s accredited investor status, and raise the offering limit under Rule 504. We estimate for purposes of the PRA that there is no material effect on the current burden hours per response relating to Regulation D as a result of the proposed amendments. However, we are proposing to establish a single collection of information for Regulation D (Form D) to encompass all of the associated paperwork burdens, including the financial statement and non-financial statement information and delivery requirements in Rule 502(b) and the existing burdens associated with Form D, Rule 504(b)(3), and Rule 506(e). For purposes of the PRA, we estimate that the new Regulation D (Form D) collection of information would entail 29,463.75 burden hours and $35,356,500 for the services of outside professionals. Compared to the existing Form D collection of information this results in an increase of 5,893 burden hours and increase of $7,071,300 for the services of outside professionals.
