In addition to Information Table 1 and Information Table 2, which are automatically populated by FundApps, investment managers must also submit a Cover Page when disclosing under the 13f-2 regulation. This document complements the information tables and provides information (e.g. contact details, CIK) related to the reporting manager.

When using the Generate Form functionality on the 13f-2 page, the Cover Page will be automatically included in the XML and HTML files.

By default, the Filer Information and Cover Page details come from the Portfolio/Entity Form Properties. However, users can edit these details for a specific entity and month on the 13f-2 Form Properties page.

Once a user clicks Save, the properties on the 13f-2 Form Properties page are locked in for that month's filing unless edited again. Any future changes to the Portfolio/Entity Form Properties won't affect months where properties have already been saved.

However, Form SHO filings generated for other entities or months without properties saved on the 13f-2 Form Properties page will default to the latest values provided by the Portfolio/Entity Form Properties.

For most properties, any changes made on the 13f-2 Form Properties page will only apply to that specific month. To make a permanent change, you need to update the corresponding property in the Portfolio/Entity Form Properties (see the Portfolio Details Section below).

However, Form SHO-specific properties work differently because they do not have direct equivalents on the Portfolio/Entity Form Properties page. Once edited and saved on the 13f-2 Form Properties page, these properties become the default for future months. The Form SHO-specific properties are as follows:

The system always uses the most recently saved Form SHO-specific properties when there are no new saved values for a given month. For example, if Form SHO-specific properties were saved for both January and February but not for March, the February values will be used for March. However, this logic is based on the filing month - for instance, if a user later saves new Form SHO-specific properties for April and then regenerates the form for March, the March form will still use the February values, not the April ones.

Generally, it is important to note that the information provided on the 13f-2 Form Properties page will only be used to populate Form SHO. This information will not be used to populate any other disclosure filings. Any properties saved on this page will only be used in the Form SHO filing for the selected month and entity.
