Statement On The Registration For Index-Linked Annuities And Registered Market-Value Adjustment Annuities, SEC Commissioner Mark T. Uyeda
While the universe of securities is broad, the Securities Act of 1933 (“Securities Act”) generally requires that any offer or sale of a security to the public be registered with the Commission. For that reason, the Commission should take steps to ensure that registration statement disclosure is material and informative to prospective purchasers. By the same token, the Commission should avoid requiring disclosures that are irrelevant and distract readers from the important information.

RILA Re-Form: Statement On Registration For Index-Linked Annuities And Registered Market-Value Adjustment Annuities - Amendments To Form N-4 For Index-Linked Annuities, Registered Market-Value Adjustment Annuities, And Variable Annuities, SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, July 1, 2024

Even with aggressive time constraints, the staff succeeded admirably in meeting the congressional mandate to provide a tailored form to register the offerings of registered index-linked annuities (“RILAs”). I support the Commission’s general approach to implementing the congressional mandate but would have preferred a more merits-neutral approach and a greater focus on facilitating the use of creative disclosure techniques to foster deeper investor understanding.
