What is 40-8F-A?

Form N-8F is the application for an order under Section 8(f) declaring that a company has ceased to be an investment company. Until 2004 EDGAR used separate types by reason: 40-8F-A for abandonment of registration, alongside types for liquidation and merger.

Today all such applications are filed as N-8F, so this series covers 1999 to 2004.
