On July 27, 2011, the Securities and Exchange Commission (‘‘Commission’’) adopted Rule 13h–1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (‘‘Exchange Act’’) concerning large trader reporting to assist the Commission in both identifying, and obtaining trade information for, market participants that conduct a substantial amount of trading activity, as measured by volume or market value, in U.S. securities (such persons are referred to as ‘‘large traders’’).1 In addition to requiring large traders to register with the Commission by filing and periodically updating Form 13H, Rule 13h–1 requires certain brokerdealers to, among other things, maintain specified records of transactions that they effect, directly or indirectly, for large traders, and to report to the Commission, upon request of the Commission, such records in electronic format. Initially, the compliance date for the broker-dealer recordkeeping and reporting requirements of Rule 13h–1(d) and (e), respectively, as well as the requirement under Rule 13h–1(f) for broker-dealers to monitor their customers’ accounts for activity that may trigger the large trader identification requirements of Rule 13h– 1, was April 30, 2012.

In response to FIF’s and SIFMA’s requests, the Commission temporarily exempted broker-dealers from the recordkeeping, reporting, and monitoring requirements, thereby establishing a two-phased approach to implementation.6 In the first phase, the Commission provided a temporary exemption to extend the compliance date from April 30, 2012 to November 30, 2012 for the broker-dealer recordkeeping and reporting requirements of Rule 13h–1 with respect to a clearing broker-dealer for a large trader where the large trader: (1) Is a U.S.-registered broker-dealer,7 or (2) trades through a sponsored access arrangement 8 (‘‘Phase One’’).
