- [2447306-029](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2447306-029) [mechanism/evidenced] -- SEC flexibility helps filers through a specific mechanism: it authorizes advisers to apply their own internal methodologies when interpreting and answering Form PF questions and to state their own assumptions, rather than forcing them onto an unfamiliar measurement basis.
