Second, you can now filter by Issuer Size those entities (such as Hedge Funds) that report by Aggregate Net Asset Value.
Finally, we’ve greatly improved the page’s reporting capability by adding an Excel Report link, allowing you to instantly upload your search results to an Excel spreadsheet.

Upgrades on SEC Watchlist form groups
We’ve made a subtle but significant improvement in our platform for setting up personalized SEC Watchlist Alerts. Now, those who create or edit a Watchlist using the form type or form group parameter will be directed to a brand new window. The innovation is that manually checking boxes for form groups now autofills the check boxes for their corresponding form types.
How does this benefit you? Three ways. First, the exact content of form groups are now immediately visible and thus transparent. Second, that content is now easily manipulated: our preselected form groups can now serve as customizable templates that you can edit by manually checking or unchecking boxes. Third, you may now combine multiple form groups in a single Watchlist.

Defendant Name Search
Our brand new Defendant Name Search page is the fastest way to identify who’s been suspected of or charged with misconduct. We’ve aggregated data from six discrete data sources —SEC Enforcement Actions, SEC Investigation Disclosures, SEC Investors Claims Funds, PCAOB Enforcement & Inspection Releases, CFTC Enforcement Actions, and FINRA Adjudication—so you don’t have to jump from page to page to find what you’re looking for. A predictive searching text box auto-populates possible entries as you type, ensuring the status of this page as one of our most nimble and user-friendly tools.

Our new and enhanced All SEC Filings page
Available in beta version since October 6, our new, enhanced All SEC Filings page will be officially launched on December 28. The page represents a major upgrade over the old search page. New features include:
• Ability to filter filing companies by their Index Membership (S&P 500, etc.); their participation in the federal TARP program; their NAICS Industry Classification code; their location and incorporation by state, Canadian province, and country; their city and Metropolitan Statistical Area; and their detailed financial, price ratio, and ownership information;
• Search Results in a tabular view to display more information, including pop-downs that give detailed financial information for 8,000 of the largest public companies; KeyWords-in-Context display; and enhanced Company Reports;
• More targeted text search capability, thanks to the introduction of one-directional proximity searching (the “pre/” operator);
• Ability to search by multiple form groups at once, and/or combine form groups with specific form types.
• Over 300,000 scanned paper documents (going back to 1994) now viewable as electronic images.
To take the new page for a test drive, just access our All SEC Filings page and click the link on the green bar at the top of the page.
