SEC and CFTC Extend Form PF Compliance Date to Oct. 1, 2026

The extension is seen as a relief to many advisers who would have faced significant compliance burdens had the original deadline held. The new date gives them more time to assess their readiness and implement necessary changes.

Why it Matters

• Private fund managers will need to ensure they comply with the revised Form PF requirements, which includes enhanced reporting on private fund activities and operations.
• The extension gives advisers an opportunity to review and refine their compliance procedures to avoid any potential penalties or reputational damage.
