Form ABS-15G/A Filings

What Is SEC Form ABS-15G/A?

SEC Form ABS-15G/A is an important filing used to amend a previously filed Form ABS-15G required under Exchange Act Section 15G and the related rules adopted under the Dodd-Frank Act. Securitizers use it to revise disclosures originally submitted regarding asset-backed securities repurchase activity or other required representations and warranties-related information.

This form is typically filed when a securitizer needs to correct errors, update data, add missing information, or reflect changes to the disclosures included in an earlier Form ABS-15G filing. Because it is an amendment, Form ABS-15G/A is filed on an event-driven basis rather than on a fixed schedule, and it updates the public record for the applicable reporting period.

Form ABS-15G/A supports transparency by ensuring that investors, regulators, and market participants have access to accurate and complete disclosures. While it does not replace the underlying Form ABS-15G filing framework, it serves as the formal mechanism for revisions when the original submission requires updates.

• Key elements typically found in SEC Form ABS-15G/A include:
  Name of the securitizer and filing entity
• Identification of the amended Form ABS-15G filing and reporting period
• Updated repurchase request and demand information, where applicable
• Corrections to previously reported representations and warranties disclosures
• Explanatory statements describing the purpose of the amendment
• Signature by the senior officer in charge of securitization, as required for Rule 15Ga-1 filings

SEC Form ABS-15G/A Filing Deadlines

SEC Form ABS-15G/A does not have a fixed filing deadline because it is only required when an issuer must amend or correct a previously filed Form ABS-15G. These amendments are filed as needed to ensure the accuracy of disclosures and to maintain a complete SEC reporting record.
