Form PF
Made Simple
Convert fund data into SEC-ready filings, without the manual grind. 

The ARKK regulatory reporting portal converts your fund's data into compliant XML for Form PF filings, incorporating the latest SEC and CFTC requirements and validations behind the scenes. Structured templates link to your existing data, so there's no need to rebuild your reporting process from scratch each cycle.

Investment advisers still relying on manual processes or spreadsheets face avoidable risk. Keeping pace with evolving reporting thresholds and disclosure requirements is time-consuming and prone to error, leaving firms exposed to compliance gaps at exactly the wrong moment.

How ARKK simplifies Form PF

The ARKK portal aggregates your fund data, runs it through embedded validation logic, and produces a recognised, submission-ready XML file with a full audit trail. Our team gives you clear visibility across every fund and reporting cycle, so nothing gets missed ahead of a deadline.

Form PF FAQs

+ What is Form PF?

Form PF is a regulatory filing that requires certain investment advisers to report information about the private funds they advise to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC). It helps the SEC and the Treasury's Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC) understand the private fund industry and the risks it poses to the wider financial system.

+ How does ARKK support Form PF?

ARKK's regulatory reporting portal converts your fund's data into compliant XML for Form PF filings, incorporating the latest SEC and CFTC requirements and validations behind the scenes. Structured templates link to your existing data, so there's no need to rebuild your reporting process each cycle.

+ How long does it take to implement a Form PF solution?
Implementation time depends on the number of funds you're required to report and the complexity of your existing data setup. Most clients are operational well ahead of their next filing window, with our team providing hands-on support throughout onboarding.
+ Does ARKK integrate with existing data systems?

Yes, ARKK's Excel-based templates link to your existing workbooks, so you can populate reports using data you already hold rather than re-entering it into a new system.

+ How is data secured on the ARKK platform?

ARKK's portal is ISO 27001 certified, the internationally recognised standard for information security management, giving you a single, secure destination for uploading, tracking, and accessing your Form PF submissions. 

+ What are the risks of managing Form PF internally?

Internal Form PF management without expertise increases the risk of validation errors, inconsistent data across submissions, and missed deadlines as reporting thresholds and disclosure requirements evolve. Rekeying data into new templates each cycle also raises the chance of mistakes creeping into your filings.
