35An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a currently valid control number. The Advisers Act authorizes the
SEC to collect the information on Form ADV from investment advisers. See 15 U.S.C. §§ 80b-3
and 80b-4. Filing the form is mandatory.
The form enables the SEC to register investment advisers and to obtain information from and
about exempt reporting advisers. Every applicant for registration with the SEC as an adviser,
and every exempt reporting adviser, must file the form. See 17 C.F.R. §§ 275.203-1 and 204-4.
By accepting a form, however, the SEC does not make a finding that it has been completed or
submitted correctly. The form is filed annually by every adviser, no later than 90 days after the
end of its fiscal year, to amend its registration or its report. It is also filed promptly during the
year to reflect material changes. See 17 C.F.R. § 275.204-1. The SEC maintains the information
on the form and makes it publicly available through the IARD.
Anyone may send the SEC comments on the accuracy of the burden estimate on page 1 of the
form, as well as suggestions for reducing the burden. The Office of Management and Budget has
reviewed this collection of information under 44 U.S.C. § 3507.
The information contained in the form is part of a system of records subject to the Privacy Act of
1974, as amended. The SEC has published in the Federal Register the Privacy Act System of
Records Notice for these records.
