SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION


Sunshine Act Meeting

    Notice is hereby given, pursuant to the provisions of the 
Government in the Sunshine Act, Public Law 94-409, that the Securities 
and Exchange Commission will hold an Open Meeting on June 22, 2011 at 
10 a.m., in the Auditorium, Room L-002.
    The subject matters of the Open Meeting will be:
    Item 1: The Commission will consider whether to adopt new rules and 
rule amendments under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 to implement 
provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection 
Act. These rules and rule amendments are designed to give effect to 
provisions of Title IV of the Dodd-Frank Act that, among other things, 
increase the statutory threshold for registration of investment 
advisers with the Commission, require advisers to hedge funds and other 
private funds to register with the Commission, and address reporting by 
certain investment advisers that are exempt from registration.
    Item 2: The Commission will consider whether to adopt rules that 
would implement new exemptions from the registration requirements of 
the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 for advisers to venture capital 
funds and advisers with less than $150 million in private fund assets 
under management in the United States. These exemptions were enacted as 
part of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. 
The new rules also would clarify the meaning of certain terms included 
in a new exemption for foreign private advisers.
    Item 3: The Commission will consider whether to adopt a rule 
defining ``family offices'' that will be excluded from the definition 
of an investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.
    At times, changes in Commission priorities require alterations in 
the scheduling of meeting items.
    For further information and to ascertain what, if any, matters have 
been added, deleted or postponed, please contact: The Office of the 
Secretary at (202) 551-5400.

    Dated: June 8, 2011.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
Secretary.
