default of a member on NSCC’s Watch
List with family-issued securities under
normal market conditions. As such, the
Commission believes that the proposal
is consistent with Rule 17Ad–22(b)(1).
Consistency with Rule 17Ad–22(b)(2).
Rule 17Ad–22(b)(2) 23 under the
Exchange Act requires a CCP, such as
NSCC, to ‘‘establish, implement,
maintain and enforce written policies
and procedures reasonably designed to
. . . [u]se margin requirements to limit
its credit exposures to participants
under normal market conditions and
use risk-based models and parameters to
set margin requirements . . . .’’ By
enhancing the margin methodology
applied to family-issued securities of
NSCC’s members that are on its Watch
List, the proposal will better account for
and cover NSCC’s credit exposure to
less creditworthy members. In addition,
by taking into account specific wrongway risk arising from family-issued
securities submitted to NSCC, the
proposal is consistent with using risk
based models and parameters to set
margin requirements. As such, the
Commission believes that the proposal
is consistent with Rule 17Ad–22(b)(2).
III. Conclusion
It is therefore noticed, pursuant to
Section 806(e)(1)(I) of the Payment,
Clearing and Settlement Supervision
Act,24 that the Commission does not
object to Advance Notice and that NSCC
is authorized to implement the
proposal.
By the Commission.

Deputy Secretary.
