09/11/2017

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Donnelley Financial Solutions (NYSE:DFIN) announced today that it successfully submitted SEC Modernization test filings of NPORT-P, NPORT-NP and N-CEN with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Donnelley Financial, the largest EDGAR filer by volume as reported by the SEC, created and filed these test filings using their end-to-end ArcFiling solution that automates the collection, creation, review and self-filing of Forms N-PORT and N-CEN. On June 1, 2018, Forms N-PORT and N-CEN become effective, and will replace the existing Forms N-Q and N-SAR.

"Successfully filing Forms N-PORT and N-CEN, which significantly expand the scope of required data, on the first day of test filing by the SEC, demonstrates our unrelenting commitment to data and its impact on our clients, our swift response to regulatory change, and our leadership in this space” said Eric Johnson, President of Global Investment Markets at Donnelley Financial.

Brian Lynch, Donnelley Financial's Vice President of Content Management, elaborated, "The ArcFiling platform, which currently produces and files multiple monthly money market filings, has been enhanced to meet the SEC’s new modernization requirements, including the ability to ingest new data fields, validate data designed for an exception-based process, and batch file the new forms directly with the SEC’s EDGAR system. The success of these filings on the first day of test filing shows Donnelley Financial will be ready ahead of the June 1, 2018 deadline.”
