Yesterday, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) posted a set of questions and answers concerning the SEC’s temporary order requiring certain institutional investment managers to report short sales. Effective this week, institutional investment managers must report daily short sales of section 13(f) securities. According to the SEC, questions and answers presented on their website, were prepared by and represent the views of the Staff of the Divisions of Corporation Finance, Investment Management, and Trading and Markets to assist in the understanding and application of the order. The questions and answers are not rules, regulations, or statements of the SEC.
