On January 29, 2025, the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (together, the "Agencies") jointly announced that the compliance date for the new Form PF would be extended by three months, from March 12, 2025 to June 12, 2025.1

Filers whose fiscal quarter ended on December 31 will now have an extra three months to comply with the amendments to Form PF. The amendments increase the amount of information advisers to all private funds must report, though advisers to hedge funds are particularly affected due to requirements to report exposure to specific counterparties, investments, countries, currencies, industries and central clearing counterparties, among others.
