Download as PDF mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 80, No. 250 / Wednesday, December 30, 2015 / Notices the rules of a national securities exchange provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among its members and issuers and other persons using its facilities, and with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,16 which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to remove impediments to and perfect the mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system and, in general, to protect investors and the public interest, and not be designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers. In addition, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,17 which requires that the rules of the exchange not impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Commission believes that the Exchange’s proposal to provide this additional connectivity option is consistent with the requirement of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act. The Commission believes that the proposal is not designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers because the Exchange makes wireless connectivity available to all Users on an equal basis. All Users that voluntarily select this service option will be charged the same amount for the same services, and there would be no differentiation among Users with regard to the fees charged for the service. Further, the Exchange represents that Users of the new wireless connection would not receive Third Party Data that is not available to all Users. In addition, the Exchange represents that Users that do not opt to utilize the Exchange’s wireless connections would still be able to obtain Third Party Data through other methods, such as from wireless networks offered by third party vendors, other Users, through telecommunications providers, or over the IP network. The Commission also believes that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(4) of the Act.18 All Users that voluntarily select this service option will be charged the same amount for the same services, and there would be no differentiation among Users with regard to the fees charged for the service. The Commission notes the Exchange’s representation that the fees associated with providing the wireless 16 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). U.S.C. 78f(b)(8). 18 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(4). 17:59 Dec 29, 2015 IV. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,20 that the proposed rule change (SR–NYSE–2015– 52) be, and it hereby is, approved. 19 See 17 15 VerDate Sep<11>2014 connections are reasonable because the Exchange will incur certain costs, including costs related to the data center facility, hardware and equipment and costs related to personnel required for initial installation and monitoring, support and maintenance of such services. The Exchange states that the costs associated with the wireless connections are incrementally higher than fiber optics-based solutions due to the expense of the wireless equipment, cost of installation and testing and ongoing maintenance of the network, and that fees also reflect the benefit received by Users in terms of lower latency over the fiber optics option. In addition, the Exchange believes that the proposed waiver of the first month’s MRC is reasonable as it would allow Users to test the receipt of the feed(s) for a month before incurring any monthly recurring fees and may act as an incentive to Users to utilize the new service. The Commission also finds that consistent with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act the proposed rule change does not impose a burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Exchange states that Users currently can receive Third Party Data from competing wireless networks offered by third party vendors, including at least four third party vendors that offer Users wireless network connections using wireless equipment installed on towers and buildings near the data center. The Exchange represents, based on the information available to it, that the proposed wireless connection would provide data at the same or similar speed, and at the same or similar cost, as existing wireless networks, thereby enhancing competition.19 The Exchange also notes that the proposed wireless connection would compete not just with other wireless connections, but also with fiber optic networks, which may be more attractive to some Users as they are more reliable and less susceptible to weather conditions. For these reasons, the Commission does not believe that the proposed rule change imposes a burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. supra notes 12 and 13 and accompanying For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.21 Brent J.
