The EDGAR Filer Management Dashboard is an interactive function on EDGAR where electronic filers manage their EDGAR accounts and individuals that electronic filers authorize may take relevant actions for the electronic filers’ accounts.
On September 13, 2023, the Commission proposed rule and form amendments concerning access to and management of accounts on EDGAR that are related to potential technical changes to EDGAR (collectively referred to as “EDGAR Next”). If the proposed rule and form changes are adopted, filers would be required to obtain individual account credentials and comply with certain account access and management requirements by taking action on a new filer management tool, the EDGAR Filer Management Dashboard (“the dashboard”), available on EDGAR. Moreover, certain additional disclosure obligations would be required on the Form ID application for access.
The proposed revisions to Form ID also would result in a more uniform and secure process for requesting EDGAR access by requiring submission of a new Form ID if the applicant claims to already have an identification number (CIK) but no longer has access to EDGAR. The proposed amendments would also simplify filer account management by eliminating certain EDGAR access codes that would no longer be necessary due to the use of individual account credentials.
The EDGAR Next proposed rule and form amendments also include implementation of the dashboard, an interactive function on EDGAR where electronic filers would manage their EDGAR accounts and where individuals that electronic filers would authorize could take relevant actions for the electronic filers’ accounts. We estimate that each filer would spend approximately one hour setting up the dashboard, and approximately one hour per annum managing the filer’s account on the dashboard. This burden would vary across filers depending on the size of the filer, the number of individuals and entities the filer has authorized to act on the dashboard on its behalf, as well as the amount of annual staff turnover for those individuals and entities, among other factors. Consequently, the anticipated total annual burden attributed to the dashboard would be approximately 220,000 burden hours.
