________
 ¹  A “filing agent” (in non-bold lower case herein) in SEC terminology is the entity submitting a Filing, i.e., the party who is logged into the SEC’s EDGAR system when it is submitted, and is identified by the CIK³ they used to login to EDGAR.  They are either (1) an SEC-registered Filing Agent (in bold Initial Caps herein), or (2) a Registrant (in non-bold names above) who has self-filed a Filing as the Filer/Issuer or is submitting one for an affiliate, or (3) the SEC itself.  A registered Filing Agent is in the business of submitting Filings for other Registrants, so we call them a “true” Filing Agent (bold Initial Caps) to distinguish them from the filing agent (non-bold lower case) who submitted the Filing.  You cannot tell whether a filing agent’s CIK³ is that of a Filing Agent or a Registrant Filer/Issuer, because Registrants may be (or own) Filing Agents (e.g., Donnelley Financial Solutions) or submit Filings for their directors/officers, and Filing Agents may be Registrants for other business purposes (e.g., some Transfer Agents).  A Filing is self-filed only when the Filer/Issuer is logged into EDGAR with their CIK³ and is filing their own Filing, whether or not they are using an SEC website or filing software from a Filing Agent or another vendor.  If a Filer/Issuer is logged into a Filing Agent’s site when submitting a Filing, the Filing Agent is the filing agent.  Regardless of whether or not a Filing Agent’s site allows Registrant clients to “sign off” on Filings or submit them from there, the Filing Agent is still the filing agent and the Filing is not self-filed.  Further complicating this, some “parents” submit Filings for their subsidiaries, Funds/ETFs or ABSs, and various Money Managers submit Filings for other related Money Managers.  Our algorithms reconcile all of this daily, and figure out who the “true” Filing Agents are.
 ²  We determine which of the 300K+ historic filing agents are “true” Filing Agents, and of those 4K±, which are “pure” (90%) or not (10%), by comparing the CIK³ of each Filing’s filing agent with that of the Filer/Issuer for whom the Filing was filed.  We consider a Registrant to be a “true” Filing Agent when they either have done Filings only for others or have done 32+ Filings for others for each Filing they did for themself as the Filer/Issuer.  The “Filings Ratio” after each name above indicates if the filing agent is a “pure” Filing Agent (shown as “All : 0” when all of their Filings have been for other Registrants) or the ratio of Filings for others versus for themself as a Registrant (e.g., “100+ : 1”).  Not all Filing Agents are identified by name above; some are paying us to remain “anonymous” for competitive reasons, mostly to protect their client lists from poaching by other Filing Agents (see the Services We Offer below).
 ³  To submit Filings, an entity must first register with the SEC to receive its 10-digit Central Index Key (“CIK”).  When a Filing is submitted, the CIK of the filing agent¹ is used, and it may differ from that of the Filer/Issuer legally required to make the Filing.  The submitting filing agent may be a “true” Filing Agent or a Registrant who is self-filing or filing for a related Registrant.  The filing agent’s CIK shows up as the first part of each Filing’s identifying SEC Accession Number, which is in CIK-Year-Submission# format (e.g., SEC # 0001193125-23-029283).
