What is Form 497?
Form 497 is used by mutual funds and investment companies to file definitive materials on the SEC’s EDGAR filing system. Definitive materials include any piece of information considered material to an investor, and as such, relevant to an investor’s decision about changing their financial position in a company. Examples of definitive materials include proxy statements, prospectus publications, and Statements of Additional Information (SAI). Prospectuses containing risk/return summaries are accompanied in an SEC EDGAR filing with an XBRL component.
Form 497 includes several variants used in specific filing situations:
| 497 | Definitive materials filed under paragraph (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of Securities Act Rule 497 |
| 497K | Summary Prospectus for certain open-end management investment companies filed pursuant to Securities Act Rule 497(k) |
| 497J | Certification of no change in definitive materials under paragraph (j) of Securities Act Rule 497 |
How We Support Form 497 Filings

We have a team of North American XBRL specialists who will work with you to prepare the tagged component of risk/return summaries.
