Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Under OMB Review, 75225-75226 [2014-29471]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 242 / Wednesday, December 17, 2014 / Notices mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES As noted, NASDAQ incurs costs in monitoring a subscribing member firm’s report limit and in administering the fee. Consequently, reducing the number of fee tiers will reduce NASDAQ’s costs, thereby allowing NASDAQ to keep the fee lower than it would otherwise be. In addition, NASDAQ does not believe that elimination of the Monthly Compliance Report Card reports from the service is unfairly discriminatory. As noted, the report is used very little by subscribing member firms and any member firm that seeks similar information may obtain similar reports from FINRA at no cost. Lastly, NASDAQ believes that the proposed name change will avoid any market participant confusion due to the name of the service used in the rule and the commonly-used name. NASDAQ notes that the proposed change does not affect what is offered by the service in any way. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition NASDAQ does not believe that the proposed rule changes will result in any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act, as amended.11 NASDAQ notes that it operates in a highly competitive market in which market participants can readily favor competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be excessive. In such an environment, NASDAQ must carefully balance the fees it assesses with the costs incurred to remain competitive with other exchanges. To the extent NASDAQ’s fees are too high or another exchange’s products and services provide greater value, NASDAQ will likely lose subscriber revenue. As such, NASDAQ believes that the degree to which fee changes in this market may impose any burden on competition is extremely limited. In this instance, NASDAQ last increased the Data Package fees in February 2012 and NASDAQ is now realigning the fee assessed for the subscription to the service with the costs it incurs in offering it. Such costs include adding enhancements to the service to make it more useful to subscribers. Moreover, increasing the fees also allows NASDAQ to continue to derive a profit from the service, which will allow NASDAQ to continue to offer the service in the long term. Moreover, NASDAQ believes that the fee increase does not impose a burden on competition because the service is optional and member firms may develop their own alternatives to the service or acquire similar functionality through third parties. For these reasons, NASDAQ does not believe that the proposed changes will impose any unnecessary burden on competition. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others Written comments were neither solicited nor received. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The foregoing change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act,12 and paragraph (f) 13 of Rule 19b–4, thereunder. At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. IV. Solicitation of Comments Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of the following methods: Electronic Comments • Use the Commission’s Internet comment form (https://www.sec.gov/ rules/sro.shtml); or • Send an email to rule-comments@ sec.gov.
