How often must Form 13F be filed once the $100 million threshold is met?

Form 13F must be filed quarterly, specifically within 45 days after the end of each calendar quarter, once an institutional investment manager meets the $100 million threshold in assets under management. This requirement enables the SEC to monitor large investment holdings and aggregate positions that could influence market dynamics. The filing includes information about equity securities that the manager has discretion over, thereby providing transparency in the investment firm’s activities.

The 45-day filing window is critical, as it ensures that the information is relatively current, allowing regulators and the public to understand market trends and institutional investment behavior in a timely manner. This obligation underscores the regulatory framework designed to promote transparency and protect investors.
