Rule 611 is being amended to provide that all positions in customers’ lien accounts will be deemed to be ‘‘unsegregated.’’ Fifth, Chapter XI of OCC’s Rules is being amended to provide for the liquidation of a clearing member’s customers’ lien account in the event that the clearing member is suspended. In essence, a customers’ lien account will be treated in exactly the same manner as a combined market-maker account. Under these provisions, proceeds of long options or security futures in a customers’ lien account will be applied only to satisfy obligations arising from that account. III. Discussion Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act requires, among other things, that the rules of a clearing agency be designed to assure the safeguarding of securities and funds which are in its custody or control or for which it is responsible.7 The proposed rule change is designed to facilitate a new portfolio customer margining program that was the subject of proposed rule changes filed by NYSE and CBOE and was approved by the Commission.8 In order to reduce the disparity between the customer-level margin requirement and the clearinglevel margin requirement that would occur if portfolio margining were allowed at the customer level but not at the clearing member level, the member’s portfolio of eligible transactions will be cleared and settled at OCC through a new customers’ lien account and OCC will compute margin for such account using the same portfolio margining methodology (OCC’s TIMS methodology) that is used to calculate margin at the customer level. OCC’s Rule 611(c) currently allows a clearing member to unsegregate a customer’s long option position only if the position is offset by a short position being carried for the same customer and if the customer’s margin requirement is reduced as a result of the offsetting positions. Under the customer portfolio margining methodology program, all long positions in the customers’ lien account will be available as an offset to all short positions, regardless of the identity of the customer. This should provide for a greater diversification 7 15 U.S.C. 78q–1(b)(3)(F). Exchange Act Release No. XXXXX (July, 2005). benefit to OCC’s clearing members in the calculation of their margin. However, because all positions in the customers’ lien account will be unsegregated and therefore will be subject to OCC’s lien, the long positions in the account will be available to OCC in the event a clearing member fails to settle its obligations relating to a short position. Accordingly, because the proposed rule change is designed to ensure that transactions in securities which are eligible for the new portfolio margining program approved by the Commission will be cleared and settled by OCC in a manner that will not reduce the adequacy of collateral available to OCC, the proposed rule change should not adversely affect OCC’s ability to assure the safeguarding of securities and funds which are in OCC’s custody and control or for which OCC is responsible. IV. Conclusion On the basis of the foregoing, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and in particular Section 17A of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder. It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act, that the proposed rule change (File No. SR– OCC–2003–04) be and hereby is approved. 19:28 Jul 21, 2005 Jkt 205001 A.
