What is APP WDG?

APP WDG appears on EDGAR under the applicant's CIK when an application for exemptive relief, usually a 40-APP, is withdrawn. Applicants withdraw for many reasons: the relief became unnecessary after a rule change, the fund never launched, or the request was superseded by a new application.

EDGAR shows no separate form description for this type, so read each filing alongside the applicant's 40-APP and APP WD history to see what was withdrawn.

Who files

Recorded under the CIK of funds, advisers and affiliates whose exemptive application was withdrawn.

When it is filed

When an application is withdrawn before an order is issued.

APP WD is the applicant's own withdrawal request. APP WDG records the withdrawal on EDGAR; check both for a full history.

Can a withdrawn application be refiled?
