Filer Transition to New and Improved EDGAR Begins March 24

The Securities and Exchange Commission is providing extensive guidance and resources to assist filers with upcoming access and account management enhancements to the security of the agency’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (EDGAR) system. On March 24, a new EDGAR Filer Management dashboard will open where filers may enroll in EDGAR Next and where individuals or entities requiring access to file on EDGAR may submit the Form ID access application. The Commission adopted rule and form amendments referred to as EDGAR Next in September 2024 to improve the ability of filers to securely manage and maintain access to their EDGAR accounts while simplifying the procedures for them to access EDGAR. Enrollment in EDGAR Next will remain open until Dec. 19, 2025. However, filers should enroll no later than Sept. 12, 2025, to avoid interruption in the ability to file.
