Bloomberg: SEC staff said to have no more feedback on several key filings.
SEC commissioners plan vote on exchange-rule filings next week.
The issuers need the SEC to sign-off on the final versions of their S-1 filings, which are the prospectus documents for the ETFs. The SEC gave issuers a deadline of Monday at 8 a.m. Washington time to file updated S-1s, one of the people said. SEC approval of the 19b-4 and S-1 forms may or may not happen at the same time, though typically the S-1s are approved after the 19b-4s.
A representative for the SEC declined to comment.
Should both approvals be obtained, the ETFs could start trading as soon as the next business day.
