The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) recently finalized revisions to Rule 205-3 under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, raising the net worth requirements for individuals who are charged performance fees. The SEC increased the threshold requirements for “qualified clients” to account for inflation, as required by the Dodd-Frank Act and section 205(e) of the Advisers Act. The next adjustment for inflation is anticipated in 2026.
