Financial reporting requirements for investment advisers.

(1) If you are an investment adviser registered or required to be registered under RCW 21.20.040 who has custody of client funds or securities, you must file with the director an audited balance sheet as of the end of your fiscal year. You must file the audited balance sheet in electronic format by email or through a proprietary electronic filing system to be established by the director for the purposes of accepting such filings. Each balance sheet filed pursuant to this subsection must be:
(a) Prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) in the United States and audited in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards (GAAS) in the United States by an independent certified public accountant; and
(b) Accompanied by an audit opinion of the accountant on the audit of the balance sheet.
(2) If you are an investment adviser registered or required to be registered under RCW 21.20.040 that has custody as defined in WAC 460-24A-005 (6)(a)(iii) and you have notified the director on Form ADV that you will comply with the requirements in WAC 460-24A-107 (1)(b), you must file with the director a copy of the audited financial statements of each pooled investment vehicle for which you are a general partner (or managing member or other comparable position).
(3) If you are an investment adviser registered or required to be registered under RCW 21.20.040 and are not subject to the financial statement reporting requirements in subsection (1) or (2) of this section, you must file with the director a balance sheet, which need not be audited, but which must be prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States and represented by you or the person who prepared the statement as true and accurate, as of the end of your fiscal year.
(4) The financial statements required by this section must be filed with the director within one hundred twenty days following the end of your fiscal year, except for the audited financial statements of pooled investment vehicles you obtain and distribute pursuant to WAC 460-24A-107(1), which must be filed with the director within one hundred twenty days following the end of each pooled investment vehicle's fiscal year.
(5) If you are an investment adviser that has its principal place of business in a state other than this state, you must file only such reports with the director as required by the state in which you maintain your principal place of business, provided that you are registered in such state and are in compliance with such state's financial reporting requirements.
