Bill Summary

Allows a closed-end fund—a portfolio of pooled assets with a limited number of shares traded on an exchange—to increase their investments in private investment funds.

AI Summary

This bill, the Increasing Investor Opportunities Act, amends the Investment Company Act of 1940 to prohibit the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from limiting closed-end investment funds (which are portfolios of pooled assets traded on an exchange) from investing in private investment funds. The bill also defines "private fund" for the purposes of the Investment Company Act and the Investment Advisers Act, and requires national securities exchanges to allow the listing and trading of securities of closed-end funds that invest in private funds. The amendments take effect after a 2-year period or at an earlier date determined necessary by the SEC.
