Under section 31(j)(2) of the Exchange
Act, the Commission must make a midyear adjustment to the fee rates under
Sections 31(b) and (c) in fiscal year 2008
if it determines, based on the actual
aggregate dollar volume of sales during
the first five months of the fiscal year,
that the baseline estimate
($78,732,152,559,457) is reasonably
likely to be 10% (or more) greater or less
than the actual aggregate dollar volume
of sales for fiscal 2008.8 To make this
determination, the Commission must
estimate the actual aggregate dollar
volume of sales for fiscal 2008.
Based on data provided by the
national securities exchanges and the
national securities association that are
subject to section 31,9 the actual
aggregate dollar volume of sales during
the first four months of fiscal 2008 was
$27,185,458,106,162.10 Using these data
and a methodology for estimating the
aggregate dollar amount of sales for the
remainder of fiscal 2008 (developed
after consultation with the
Congressional Budget Office and the
OMB),11 the Commission estimates that
the aggregate dollar amount of sales for
the remainder of fiscal 2008 to be
$71,539,094,586,685. Thus, the
Commission estimates that the actual
aggregate dollar volume of sales for all
of fiscal 2008 will be
$98,724,552,692,847.

Order Making Fiscal 2008 Mid-Year
Adjustment to the Fee Rates
Applicable Under Sections 31(b) and
(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934
I. Background
Section 31 of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’) requires
each national securities exchange and
national securities association to pay
transaction fees to the Commission.1
Specifically, section 31(b) requires each
national securities exchange to pay to
the Commission fees based on the
aggregate dollar amount of sales of
certain securities transacted on the
exchange.2 Section 31(c) requires each
national securities association to pay to
the Commission fees based on the
aggregate dollar amount of sales of
certain securities transacted by or
through any member of the association
other than on an exchange.3
Sections 31(j)(1) and (3) require the
Commission to make annual
adjustments to the fee rates applicable
under sections 31(b) and (c) for each of
the fiscal years 2003 through 2011, and
one final adjustment to fix the fee rates
for fiscal year 2012 and beyond.4
Section 31(j)(2) requires the
Commission, in certain circumstances,
to make a mid-year adjustment to the fee
rates in fiscal 2002 through fiscal 2011.5
The annual and mid-year adjustments
are designed to adjust the fee rates in a
given fiscal year so that, when applied
to the aggregate dollar volume of sales
for the fiscal year, they are reasonably
likely to produce total fee collections
under section 31 equal to the ‘‘target

its Order Making Fiscal 2008 Annual Adjustments
to the Fee Rates Applicable Under Section 6(b) of
the Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 13(e), 14(g),
31(b) and 31(c) of the Securities Exchange Act of

(‘‘FINRA’’) and each exchange is required to file a
monthly report on Form R31 containing dollar
volume data on sales of securities subject to Section
31. The report is due on the 10th business day
following the month for which the exchange or
association provides dollar volume data.
10 Although Section 31(j)(2) indicates that the
Commission should determine the actual aggregate
dollar volume of sales for fiscal 2008 ‘‘based on the
actual aggregate dollar volume of sales during the
first 5 months of such fiscal year,’’ data are only
available for the first four months of the fiscal year
as of the date the Commission is required to issue
this order, i.e., March 1, 2008. Dollar volume data
on sales of securities subject to Section 31 for
February 2008 will not be available from the
exchanges and FINRA for several weeks.
