How issuers can prepare for EDGAR Next

How issuers can prepare for EDGAR Next
Contents

The Security and Exchange Commission is updating their filing access. Given the recent proliferation and anticipated surge of ETF launches, understanding the EDGAR Next update is critical for asset managers and industry insiders.  With a September 15th, 2025 deadline, issuers looking to avoid disruptions have until September 12th, 2025 to enroll to get secure login.gov credentials and navigate EDGAR Next. This update to the SEC’s filing access is a massive operational shift that issuers need to navigate sooner rather than later. Accordingly, TMX Newsfile has published a handy guide of what you need to know before the September 15th deadline

What EDGAR Next aims to do

According to the article, EDGAR Next seeks to:

  • Enhance security
  • Improve account management
  • Provide new CCC assignment
  • Provide optional API access

In addition to covering what steps need to be taken, the TMX Newsfile article also helps issuers looking to understand how EDGAR Next compares to the legacy EDGAR.

Crucial steps

Preparing for this transition is critical and will require issuers to create login.gov credentials and assign account administrators. Once that is completed, the next step is to enroll via the EDGAR Filer Management Dashboard. (A beta version exists for filers to peruse before enrolling.)

TMX Newsfile can also manage enrollment, CCC, admins, and confirmations for $250/year.

Stay compliant and enroll early

The last thing any filer wants is to have to navigate through issues caused by last-minute bottlenecks. With many likely to wait until late in the summer, the SEC could see backlog and filers could experience delays. The best way to avoid this issue is to handle enrollment as soon as possible, giving yourself the time and flexibility to navigate potential challenges or obstacles.

Once you are enrolled and compliant, you need to remain compliant. TMX Newsfile Filing Lead & News Specialist Martin Francisco said, “Annual confirmation and token management are part of the new reality with EDGAR Next. We are helping clients stay organized and filing-ready–without the stress.”
