  "summary": "This subtopic governs how an investment company presents its financial position — either a statement of assets and liabilities or a statement of net assets — and the schedule (or condensed schedule) of investments that accompanies it. It sets bright-line disclosure thresholds (1 percent of net assets for registered/other investment companies; 5 percent for nonregistered investment partnerships), special presentation rules for multiple-class, master-feeder, and fund-of-funds structures, and requires contract-value reporting for fully benefit-responsive investment contracts held by qualified defined contribution plan trusts.",
  "key_points": [
    "An investment company presents financial position as either a statement of assets and liabilities or a statement of net assets, and a statement of net assets includes a schedule of investments (946-210-45-1 through 45-2).",
    "For multiple-class funds, composition of net assets is reported in total but net asset value per share and shares outstanding are reported for each class (946-210-45-4).",
    "In a master-feeder structure, the master fund generally does not report components of net assets, shares outstanding, or NAV per share and alone presents the portfolio of investments; each feeder reports its investment in the master (with NAV per share, shares outstanding, and components of net assets) and presents no schedule of portfolio investments (946-210-45-5 through 45-6).",
    "Investment companies other than nonregistered investment partnerships must name each investment exceeding 1 percent of net assets (and each issuer aggregating over 1 percent), disclose at a minimum the 50 largest investments, categorize investments by type and by industry/country/geographic region, and aggregate the remainder by category with percent of net assets (946-210-50-1).",
    "Nonregistered investment partnerships (hedge funds, LLCs, commodity pools, and similar) present a condensed schedule of investments using a 5 percent of net assets threshold, with long and short positions in any one issuer considered separately, special rules for derivatives by underlying, and investment objective and redemption restrictions for investments in other nonregistered partnerships exceeding 5 percent (946-210-50-4 through 50-6).",
    "If the reporting fund's proportional share of an investment held by an investee fund exceeds 5 percent of the reporting fund's net assets, that investment must be named and categorized in the condensed schedule or a note; if investee portfolio information is unavailable, that fact must be disclosed (946-210-50-9 through 50-10).",
    "For funds established under a trust adopted as part of qualified employer-sponsored defined contribution plans, contract value is the measurement attribute for net assets attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts; the statement of assets and liabilities shows total assets, total liabilities, net assets reflecting all investments at fair value, and net assets, with the fair-value-to-contract-value adjustment shown as a single amount on the face (946-210-45-11, 45-16)."

The reporting fund may list the investee (portfolio) funds directly on the statement of assets and liabilities. Additional disclosures may be required for those funds that hold a mixture of investments in other investment companies and direct investments in securities. However, there is usually no need for a separate schedule of investments. Fund management shall consider if an investment in a single [underlying](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/u/#underlying "A specified interest rate, security price, commodity price, foreign exchange rate, index of prices or rates, or other variable (including the occurrence or nonoccurrence of a specified event such as a scheduled payment under a contract). An underlying may be a price or rate of an asset or liability but is not the asset or liability itself. An underlying is a variable that, along with either a notional amount or a payment provision, determines the settlement of a derivative instrument.") fund is so significant to the fund of funds as to make the presentation of financial statements in a manner similar to a master-feeder fund more appropriate.

Contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets of an investment company attributable to [fully benefit-responsive investment contracts](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#fully-benefit-responsive-investment-contract "An investment contract is considered fully benefit-responsive if all of the following criteria are met for that contract, analyzed on an individual basis: The investment contract is effected directly between the plan and the issuer and prohibits the plan from assigning or selling the contract or its proceeds to another party without the consent of the issuer. Either of the following conditions exists: The repayment of principal and interest credited to participants in the plan is a financial obligation of the issuer of the investment contract. Prospective interest crediting rate adjustments are provided to participants in the plan on a designated pool of investments held by the plan or the contract issuer, whereby a financially responsible third party, through a contract generally referred to as a wrapper, must provide assurance that the adjustments to the interest crediting rate will not result in a future interest crediting rate that is less than zero. If an event has occurred such that realization of full contract value for a particular investment contract is no longer probable (for example, a significant decline in creditworthiness of the contract issuer or wrapper provider), the investment contract shall no longer be considered fully benefit-responsive. The terms of the investment contract require all permitted participant-initiated transactions with the plan to occur at contract value with no conditions, limits, or restrictions. Permitted participant-initiated transactions are those transactions allowed by the plan, such as any of the following: Withdrawals for benefits Loans Transfers to other funds within the plan. An event that limits the ability of the plan to transact at contract value with the issuer and that also limits the ability of the plan to transact at contract value with the participants in the plan, such as any of the following, must be probable of not occurring: Premature termination of the contracts by the plan Plant closings Layoffs Plan termination Bankruptcy Mergers Early retirement incentives. The plan itself must allow participants reasonable access to their funds. If access to funds is substantially restricted by plan provisions, investment contracts held by those plans may not be considered to be fully benefit-responsive. For example, if plan participants are allowed access at contract value to all or a portion of their account balances only upon termination of their participation in the plan, it would not be considered reasonable access and, therefore, investment contracts held by that plan would generally not be deemed to be fully benefit-responsive. However, in plans with a single investment fund that allow reasonable access to assets by inactive participants, restrictions on access to assets by active participants consistent with the objective of the plan (for example, retirement or health and welfare benefits) will not affect the benefit responsiveness of the investment contracts held by those single-fund plans. Also, if a plan limits participants' access to their account balances to certain specified times during the plan year (for example, semiannually or quarterly) to control the administrative costs of the plan, that limitation generally would not affect the benefit responsiveness of the investment contracts held by that plan. In addition, administrative provisions that place short-term restrictions (for example, three or six months) on transfers to competing fixed-rate investment options to limit arbitrage among those investment options (equity wash provisions) would not affect a contract's benefit responsiveness.") provided that the investment company is established under a trust whereby the trust itself is adopted as part of one or more qualified employer-sponsored defined contribution plans (including both health and welfare and pension plans). A qualified plan refers to a plan that qualifies under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code by allowing full or partial tax-deferred contributions and tax-deferred investment gains on those contributions.

In applying the characteristic in item (c) of the definition of fully benefit-responsive investment contract (that is, execution of transaction at contract value), an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 would not meet this requirement because Rule 22c-1 under the Act requires transactions between the investment company and its shareholders to be executed at current net asset value. The definition of fully benefit-responsive investment contract includes guidance for determining whether certain restrictions violate the provision that participants in the investment company have reasonable access to their funds. Restrictions that do not violate this provision shall also not be considered to violate the provisions in item (c) of the definition.

Investment companies identified in paragraph [946-210-45-11](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/210/946/#210-946-45-11) shall disclose all of the following in connection with [fully benefit-responsive investment contracts](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/glossary/f/#fully-benefit-responsive-investment-contract "An investment contract is considered fully benefit-responsive if all of the following criteria are met for that contract, analyzed on an individual basis: The investment contract is effected directly between the plan and the issuer and prohibits the plan from assigning or selling the contract or its proceeds to another party without the consent of the issuer. Either of the following conditions exists: The repayment of principal and interest credited to participants in the plan is a financial obligation of the issuer of the investment contract. Prospective interest crediting rate adjustments are provided to participants in the plan on a designated pool of investments held by the plan or the contract issuer, whereby a financially responsible third party, through a contract generally referred to as a wrapper, must provide assurance that the adjustments to the interest crediting rate will not result in a future interest crediting rate that is less than zero. If an event has occurred such that realization of full contract value for a particular investment contract is no longer probable (for example, a significant decline in creditworthiness of the contract issuer or wrapper provider), the investment contract shall no longer be considered fully benefit-responsive. The terms of the investment contract require all permitted participant-initiated transactions with the plan to occur at contract value with no conditions, limits, or restrictions. Permitted participant-initiated transactions are those transactions allowed by the plan, such as any of the following: Withdrawals for benefits Loans Transfers to other funds within the plan. An event that limits the ability of the plan to transact at contract value with the issuer and that also limits the ability of the plan to transact at contract value with the participants in the plan, such as any of the following, must be probable of not occurring: Premature termination of the contracts by the plan Plant closings Layoffs Plan termination Bankruptcy Mergers Early retirement incentives. The plan itself must allow participants reasonable access to their funds. If access to funds is substantially restricted by plan provisions, investment contracts held by those plans may not be considered to be fully benefit-responsive. For example, if plan participants are allowed access at contract value to all or a portion of their account balances only upon termination of their participation in the plan, it would not be considered reasonable access and, therefore, investment contracts held by that plan would generally not be deemed to be fully benefit-responsive. However, in plans with a single investment fund that allow reasonable access to assets by inactive participants, restrictions on access to assets by active participants consistent with the objective of the plan (for example, retirement or health and welfare benefits) will not affect the benefit responsiveness of the investment contracts held by those single-fund plans. Also, if a plan limits participants' access to their account balances to certain specified times during the plan year (for example, semiannually or quarterly) to control the administrative costs of the plan, that limitation generally would not affect the benefit responsiveness of the investment contracts held by that plan. In addition, administrative provisions that place short-term restrictions (for example, three or six months) on transfers to competing fixed-rate investment options to limit arbitrage among those investment options (equity wash provisions) would not affect a contract's benefit responsiveness."), in the aggregate:

1.  a
    
    A description of the nature of those investment contracts.
    
2.  b
    
    A description of how those investment contracts operate.
    
3.  c
    
    A description of the methodology for calculating the interest crediting for those investment contracts, including all of the following:
    
    1.  1
        
        The key factors that could influence future average interest crediting rates
        
    2.  2
        
        The basis for and frequency of determining interest crediting rate resets
        
    3.  3
        
        Any minimum interest crediting rate under the terms of the contracts.
        
4.  d
    
    An explanation of the relationship between future interest crediting rates and the amount reported on the statement of assets and liabilities representing the adjustment for the portion of net assets attributable to fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value.
    
5.  e
    
    A reconciliation between the beginning and ending balance of the amount presented on the statement of assets and liabilities that represents the difference between net assets reflecting all investments at fair value and net assets for each period in which a statement of changes in net assets is presented. This reconciliation shall include both of the following:
    
    1.  1
        
        The change in the difference between the fair value and contract value of all fully benefit-responsive investment contracts
        
    2.  2
        
        The increase or decrease due to changes in the fully benefit-responsive status of the fund's investment contracts.
        
6.  f
    
    The average yield earned by the entire fund (which may differ from the interest rate credited to participants in the fund) for each period for which a statement of assets and liabilities is presented. This average yield shall be calculated by dividing the annualized earnings of all investments in the fund (irrespective of the interest rate credited to participants in the fund) by the fair value of all investments in the fund.
    
7.  g
    
    The average yield earned by the entire fund with an adjustment to reflect the actual interest rate credited to participants in the fund for each period for which a statement of assets and liabilities is presented. This average yield shall be calculated by dividing the annualized earnings credited to participants in the fund (irrespective of the actual earnings of the investments in the fund) by the fair value of all investments in the fund.
    
8.  h
    
    Both of the following sensitivity analyses:
    
    1.  1
        
        The weighted average interest crediting rate (that is, the contract value yield) as of the date of the latest statement of assets and liabilities and the effect on this weighted average interest crediting rate, calculated as of the date of the latest statement of assets and liabilities and the end of the next four quarterly periods, under two or more scenarios where there is an immediate hypothetical increase or decrease in market yields, with no change to the duration of the underlying investment portfolio and no contributions or withdrawals. Those scenarios should include, at a minimum, immediate hypothetical increases and decreases in market yields equal to one-quarter and one-half of the current yield.
        
    2.  2
        
        The effect on the weighted average interest crediting rate calculated as of the date of the latest statement of assets and liabilities and the next four quarterly reset dates, under two or more scenarios where there are the same immediate hypothetical changes in market yields in the first analysis, combined with an immediate, one-time, hypothetical 10 percent decrease in the net assets of the fund due to participant transfers, with no change to the duration of the portfolio.
        
9.  i
    
    A description of the events that limit the ability of the fund to transact at contract value with the issuer (for example, premature termination of the contracts by the fund, plant closings, layoffs, plan termination, bankruptcy, mergers, and early retirement incentives), including a statement as to whether the occurrence of those events that would limit the fund's ability to transact at contract value with the participants in the fund is probable or not probable.
    
10.  j
     
     A description of the events and circumstances that would allow issuers to terminate fully benefit-responsive investment contracts with the fund and settle at an amount different from contract value.
     

Example 2 (see paragraph [946-210-55-2](https://asc.understandingaccounting.org/asc/210/946/#210-946-55-2)) illustrates the application of this guidance.
