Are registered investment companies still required to file certifications with their reports on Form N-SAR?
The certification requirement of Form N-SAR is being removed for all registered investment companies. A registered management investment company other than a small business investment company (“SBIC”) that has a fiscal annual or semi-annual period ending on or before March 31, 2003, may choose either to file Form N-CSR or to continue to comply with the certification requirements of Form N-SAR for that period. A registered management investment company other than an SBIC that has a fiscal annual or semi-annual period ending on or after April 1, 2003, is required to file Form N-CSR for that period. Beginning immediately, a unit investment trust or an SBIC is no longer required to comply with the certification requirements of Form N-SAR.
