OMB Control No. 3235–0359.
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 (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.
Form N–17f–1 (17 CFR 274.219) is
entitled ‘‘Certificate of Accounting of
Securities and Similar Investments of a
Management Investment Company in
the Custody of Members of National
Securities Exchanges.’’ The form serves
as a cover sheet to the accountant’s
certificate that is required to be filed
periodically with the Commission
pursuant to rule 17f–1 (17 CFR 270.17f–
1) under the Act, entitled ‘‘Custody of
Securities with Members of National
Securities Exchanges,’’ which sets forth
the conditions under which a fund may
place its assets in the custody of a
member of a national securities
exchange. Rule 17f–1 requires, among
other things, that an independent public
accountant verify the fund’s assets at the
end of every annual and semi-annual
fiscal period, and at least one other time
during the fiscal year as chosen by the
independent accountant. Requiring an
independent accountant to examine the
fund’s assets in the custody of a member
of a national securities exchange assists
Commission staff in its inspection
program and helps to ensure that the
fund assets are subject to proper
auditing procedures. The accountant’s
certificate stating that it has made an
examination, and describing the nature
and the extent of the examination, must
be attached to Form N–17f–1 and filed
with the Commission promptly after
each examination. The form facilitates
the filing of the accountant’s certificates,
and increases the accessibility of the
certificates to both Commission staff
and interested investors. Commission
staff estimates that it takes: (i) 1 hour of
clerical time to prepare and file Form
N–17f–1; and (ii) 0.5 hour for the fund’s
chief compliance officer to review Form
N–17f–1 prior to filing with the
Commission, for a total of 1.5 hours.
Each fund is required to make 3 filings
annually, for a total annual burden per
fund of approximately 4.5 hours.1
Commission staff estimates that an
average of 4 funds currently file Form
1 This estimate is based on the following
calculation: (1.5 hours × 3 responses annually = 4.5
hours).
