The study required under subsection

Not later than 1 year after the date of the enactment of this Act, the Securities and Exchange Commission shall submit to the Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs of the Senate and the Committee on Financial Services of the House of Representatives a report that includes— the results of the study required under this section; a detailed discussion of the financial risks to investors from investments in municipal securities; whether such risks are adequately disclosed to investors; and recommended regulatory or legislative steps to address any concerns identified in the study.
