Download as PDF 68288 Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 213 / Wednesday, November 4, 2015 / Proposed Rules file the supplemental report.11 The proposed SIPC rules incorporate this relief by providing that a SIPC member broker-dealer is exempt from filing the supplemental report if the broker-dealer reports $500,000 or less in total revenue in its ‘‘annual audited statement of income’’ filed with the Commission. The proposed rules also provide that the independent public accountant must be independent in accordance with the provisions of 17 CFR 240.2–01 and that the accountant must be engaged to perform the enumerated agreed-upon procedures in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. Finally, under paragraph (e) of Rule 17a–5, a broker-dealer’s annual reports must be prepared and filed in accordance with certain enumerated requirements. Paragraph (e)(4) of Rule 17a–5 requires the broker-dealer to file the supplemental report, and paragraph (e)(5) of Rule 17a–5 requires that a broker-dealer’s annual reports be filed not more than 60 calendar days after the fiscal year end of the broker-dealer. Accordingly, the proposed rules provide that a broker-dealer must file the supplemental report within 60 days after the end of its fiscal year. In other respects, the proposed rules largely mirror the text of paragraphs (e)(4)(ii)(A), (B), and (C) of Rule 17a–5. II. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action Within thirty-five days of the date of publication of this notice in the Federal Register, or within such longer period (i) as the Commission may designate of not more than ninety days after such date if it finds such longer period to be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to which SIPC consents, the Commission shall: (A) By order approve such proposed rule change or (B) Institute proceedings to determine whether such proposed rule change should be disapproved.
