        <ABSTRACT><![CDATA[The Commission has adopted new rules and rule amendments under the Investment Advisers Act to implement provisions of the Investment Advisers Supervision Coordination Act that reallocate regulatory responsibility for investment advisers between the Commission and the states. The rules establish the process by which certain advisers will withdraw from Commission registration, exempt certain advisers from the prohibition on Commission registration, and define certain terms. The Commission also has amended several rules under the Advisers Act to reflect the changes made by the Coordination Act. The rules and rule amendments are intended to clarify provisions of the Coordination Act and assist investment advisers in ascertaining their regulatory status. The Commission also has rescinded Form ADV-S.]]></ABSTRACT>
