The amendments generally shorten the filing deadlines for initial and amended beneficial ownership reports filed on Schedules 13D and 13G. The amendments also clarify the disclosure requirements of Schedule 13D with respect to derivative securities.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.schedule13d.com\/long_schedule_13d_Info.php#fn1\"><sup>1<\/sup><\/a>We also are expanding the timeframe within a given business day by which Schedules 13D and 13G must be filed, and separately requiring that Schedule 13D and 13G filings be made using a structured, machine-readable data language.
