COMMISSION
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request

Extension:
Rule 17i–4; SEC File No. 270–530; OMB
Control No. 3235–0594.
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
Section 231 of the Gramm-LeachBliley Act of 1999 1 (the ‘‘GLBA’’)
amended Section 17 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.) (the ‘‘Act’’ or the ‘‘Exchange Act’’)
to create a regulatory framework under
which a holding company of a brokerdealer (‘‘investment bank holding
company’’ or ‘‘IBHC’’) may voluntarily
be supervised by the Commission as a
supervised investment bank holding
company (or ‘‘SIBHC’’).2 In 2004, the
Commission promulgated rules,

including Rule 17i–4, (17 CFR 240.17i–
4.) to create a framework for the
Commission to supervise SIBHCs.3 This
framework includes qualification
criteria for SIBHCs, as well as
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements. Among other things, this
regulatory framework for SIBHCs is
intended to provide a basis for non-U.S.
financial regulators to treat the
Commission as the principal U.S.
consolidated home-country supervisor
for SIBHCs and their affiliated brokerdealers.4
Rule 17i–4 requires an SIBHC to
comply with present Exchange Act Rule
15c3–4 5 as though it were a brokerdealer, which requires that the firm
establish, document and maintain a
system of internal risk management
controls to assist it in managing the
risks associated with its business
activities (including market, credit,
operational, funding, and legal risks). In
addition, Rule 17i–4 requires that an
SIBHC establish, document, and
maintain procedures for the detection
and prevention of money laundering
and terrorist financing as part of its
internal risk management control
system. Finally, Rule 17i–4 requires that
an SIBHC periodically review its
internal risk management control
system for integrity of the risk
measurement, monitoring, and
management process, and
accountability, at the appropriate
organizational level, for defining the
permitted scope of activity and level of
risk.
The collection of information required
pursuant to Rule 17i–4 is needed so that
the Commission can adequately
supervise the activities of these SIBHCs,
and to allow the Commission to
effectively determine whether
supervision of an IBHC as an SIBHC is
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of Section 17 of the Act.
Without this information, the
Commission would be unable to
adequately supervise the SIBHC as
provided for under the Exchange Act.
We estimate that three IBHCs will file
Notices of Intention with the
Commission to be supervised by the
Commission as SIBHCs. An SIBHC will
require, on average, about 3,600 hours to
assess its present structure, businesses,
and controls, and establish and
document its risk management control
system. In addition, an SIBHC will
require, on average, approximately 250
