What is 40-8B25?

Investment Company Act Rule 8b-25 allows a registrant to request an extension of time to file a required document when it cannot do so without unreasonable effort or expense. Funds file these requests on EDGAR as 40-8B25, often for N-CSR or N-CEN.

Requests tend to cluster around auditor changes and fund launches with late financial statements.

FAQ

How is it different from a 12b-25 notice?

Rule 8b-25 is an Investment Company Act request; Rule 12b-25 is the Exchange Act late notice used for N-CSR and N-CEN as well.

Is the extension automatic?

The request asks for more time; the rule sets the conditions.
