The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) recently released two reports that update investors about registered investment companies and money market funds.
The Annual Registered Investment Company Update provides statistics and SEC staff analysis into the service providers used by investment companies, the assets they manage, and certain activities they undertake.
Money Market Fund Statistics provides additional statistical analysis and enhancements, and summaries of more money market fund data as well as information about internal affiliated funds, portfolio investments, flows, and industry concentration.
“These reports reflect the important work of the Division of Investment Management staff analyzing and collecting data from registered funds and money market funds,” Natasha Vij Greiner, SEC Division of Investment Management director, said. “The statistics and staff analysis in the reports will help investors, economists, academics, and other interested members of the public better engage with the staff and the Commission. This is critical information given the important role of funds in financial markets and the portfolios of millions of investors.”
Investors invest approximately $7.39 trillion in money market funds and trust approximately $41.5 trillion.
Both reports are available to be downloaded in a structured format that provides the historical statistical series of information for each publication.
