Investment companies will have six additional months to comply with an update to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule aimed at making investment fund names more accurate.
The SEC announced Friday that the deadline to comply with the names rule for large firms, of $1 billion or more in net assets, is extended from Dec. 11, 2025, to June 11, 2026. The deadline for smaller firms has been extended from June 11, 2026, to Dec. 11, 2026.
The names rule requires that if a firm uses a name like “green” to describe its fund, that at least 80 percent of its value reflects the common understanding of the term. Firms must disclose how they define the terms that they use in their fund names, according to the extension.
