VML/VACo Finance congratulates the many good sports who participated in the “Name That Virginia Locality” trivia championship during the VML and VACo Annual Conferences.

Local governments, their agents and other parties that are responsible for providing continuing disclosure documents pursuant to their continuing disclosure agreements, are required to make their filings at a single designated location operated by the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB). This web-based single filing location, the Electronic Municipal Market Access system, (EMMA), was created by the MSRB and is supported by many in the municipal securities industry, including issuer groups.
For issuers and other parties with less than $10 million in municipal securities outstanding, annual financial and operating information that previously would have been provided to investors upon request are, for new issues on or after July 1, 2009, required to be submitted to EMMA. Issuers are encouraged to visit the EMMA web site (www.emma.msrb.org) to become familiar with the system.
What Issuers Need to Know
An issuer will meet its continuing disclosure responsibilities, as dictated by their continuing disclosure agreements, for previously issued and newly issued bonds, by filing at EMMA. Issuers are encouraged to consult with their bond or disclosure counsel about their specific continuing disclosure agreements, and ensure that all new agreements clearly state that continuing disclosure filings will be made with EMMA. There are no costs associated with making EMMA filings. Issuers will register with the system and identify and upload documents that will then be available to the public and investors. The format for submitting continuing disclosure documents to EMMA is as a portable document format (PDF) file.
Additionally, issuers and other parties will be able to submit past annual financial filings and material event notices to EMMA, as well as voluntary filings not contemplated under continuing disclosure agreements.
If Your Loan is Through VML/VACo Finance
VML/VACo Finance continues to coordinate disclosure for all of our participants.
