Notice is hereby given that pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (“OMB”) a request for extension of the previously approved collection of information discussed below.

The title for the collection of information is “Form ADV” (17 CFR 279.1).

The information collected takes the form of disclosures to the investment adviser's clients and potential clients. The purpose of this collection of information is to provide advisory clients, prospective clients, and the Commission with information about the adviser, its business, and its conflicts of interest. Clients use certain of the information to determine whether to hire or retain an adviser.

The information collected provides the Commission with knowledge about the adviser, its business, and its conflicts of interest. The Commission uses the information to determine eligibility for registration with the Commission and to manage its regulatory, examination, and enforcement programs.

Respondents to the collection of information are investment advisers registered with the Commission or applying for registration with the Commission. The Commission estimates that the total annual reporting and recordkeeping burden of the collection of information for each respondent is 23.375 hours.

This collection of information is found at 17 CFR 279.1 and it is mandatory.

The information collected pursuant to Form ADV are filings with the Commission. These disclosures are not kept confidential and must be preserved until at least three years after termination of the enterprise.

An 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.
