Form 10-D Filings

What Is SEC Form 10-D?

SEC Form 10-D is an Exchange Act filing used by asset-backed issuers to provide periodic distribution reports pursuant to Rule 13a-17 or Rule 15d-17. It is used to report information about distributions made (or scheduled to be made) to investors and related performance information for the underlying asset pool, as required by the governing documents for the asset-backed securities.

This form is typically filed by issuing entities in asset-backed securities transactions (such as securitization trusts) after each required distribution date. The report provides ongoing visibility into cash flows, distribution amounts, and pool-level performance data during the reporting period and is filed in addition to any other Exchange Act reporting that may apply.

Key elements typically found in SEC Form 10-D include:

• Name of the issuing entity and applicable securities class
• Distribution date and reporting period covered by the report
• Distribution amounts (paid or payable) and related calculations
• Pool performance information for the underlying asset pool
• Material changes affecting distributions or transaction performance (if applicable)
• Exhibits and supporting information required by the form and governing documents

SEC Form 10-D Filing Deadlines

SEC Form 10-D has specific timing requirements that asset-backed issuers must follow after each required distribution date. These deadlines are important to maintain Exchange Act reporting compliance and provide timely distribution reporting to investors.
