Rule 30b1–8 and Form N–CR SEC File No.
270–657, OMB Control No. 3235–0705
Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘Paperwork Reduction Act’’) (44 U.S.C.
3501–3520), the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the collections of information
summarized below. The Commission
plans to submit this existing collection
of information to the Office of
Management and Budget for extension
and approval.
Rule 30b1–8 under the Act [17 CFR
270.30b1–8], entitled ‘‘Current Report
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:41 Sep 13, 2017
Jkt 241001
for Money Market Funds,’’ provides that
every registered open-end management
investment company, or series thereof,
that is regulated as a money market fund
under rule 2a–7 [17 CFR 270.2a–7], that
experiences any of the events specified
on Form N–CR [17 CFR 274.222], must
file with the Commission a current
report on Form N–CR within the time
period specified in that form. The
information collection requirements for
rule 30b1–8 and Form N–CR are
designed to assist Commission staff in
its oversight of money market funds and
its ability to respond to market events.
It also provides investors with better
and timelier disclosure of potentially
important events. Finally, the
Commission is able to use the
information provided on Form N–CR in
its regulatory, disclosure review,
inspection, and policymaking roles. The
rule imposes a burden per report of
approximately 8.5 hours and $840, so
that the total annual burden for the
estimated 37 reports filed per year on
Form N–CR is 315 hours and $31,080.
The estimate of average burden hours
is made solely for the purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act. The estimate
is based on communications with
industry representatives, and is not
derived from a comprehensive or even
a representative survey or study.
The collection of information on Form
N–CR is mandatory for any fund that
holds itself out as a money market fund
in reliance on rule 2a–7. Responses will
not be kept confidential. An agency may
not conduct or sponsor, and a person is
not required to respond to, a collection
of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Commission,
including whether the information has
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
Commission’s estimate of the burden(s)
of the collection of information; (c) ways
to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information collected; and
(d) ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to
comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this
publication.
