Note 5.R:

Investments

New: The instructions and illustration have been updated to reflect changes associated with 2020-27BWG Modified (adopted 8/27/2020). Note 5.R will be data captured and should disclose the reporting entity’s share of the cash pool by asset type (cash, cash equivalents, or short-term investments). This disclosure was added to reflect requirements for qualified cash pools for SSAP No. 2R related to the SAPWG adoption of AP&P Ref #2019-42.

Note 5.R should only be reported (i.e., “Active” in Gain’s software), and the data-captured table completed, if a company reports investments in Qualified Cash Pools on Schedule E, Part 2, Line 8799999.

Updated: This adoption modifies the instructions for Note 17.B(4), adding a data-captured table to assist regulators in their assessment of situations where an entity has transferred (or sold) assets but still retains a material participation in the transferred asset. This item corresponds with the SAPWG adoption of AP&P Ref #2021-03 on May 20, 2021, and the disclosure changes required in SSAP No. 103R – Transfers and Servicing of Financial Assets and the Extinguishments of Liabilities, paragraph 28g.
