Investment Adviser Oversight Act of 1993 - Amends the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 to authorize the Securities and Exchange Commission to establish fees to recover the costs of: (1) enhanced efforts to register all persons required to be registered under the Act; and (2) enhanced supervision and regulation of investment advisers and their activities. Requires advisers to pay such fees at the time of filing an application for registration.
Authorizes the Commission to: (1) suspend the registration of an investment adviser for failure to make timely fee payments; (2) reinstate such registration upon payment of the fee if the suspension was based solely on failure to pay it; and (3) require an adviser to file any required fee, application, report, or notice through any person the Commission designates and to pay reasonable filing costs.
Authorizes the Commission to require that registered advisers be bonded against larceny and embezzlement. Directs the Commission to study: (1) the availability of fidelity bonds for large and small-scale investment advisers and advisers located in non-urban areas; and (2) the impact of this Act's bonding requirements upon the competitive position of small-scale investment advisers.
Prohibits the Commission from requiring investment advisers from obtaining a fidelity bond if: (1) the bonds are not reasonably or readily available in their locality; or (2) if the cost of obtaining the bonds would have a substantial adverse impact upon such advisers' competitive positions.
