Washington, D.C. — MFA President and CEO Bryan Corbett issued the following statement in support of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s (CFTC) decision to extend the compliance date for the amended Form PF by one year:
“The alternative asset management industry thanks the SEC and CFTC for their pragmatic decision to grant a one-year extension of the amended Form PF compliance date. The extension will improve data quality and give regulators time to reassess whether the rule aligns with its statutory purpose. MFA looks forward to working with the Commissions to ensure Form PF provides information necessary for FSOC to assess systemic risk without imposing unnecessary compliance costs.” — Bryan Corbett, MFA President and CEO
