(collectively, ‘‘Participating

I. Introduction
Section 19(g)(1) of the Act,3 among
other things, requires every selfregulatory organization (‘‘SRO’’)
registered as either a national securities
exchange or national securities
association to examine for, and enforce
compliance by, its members and persons
associated with its members with the
Act, the rules and regulations
thereunder, and the SRO’s own rules,
unless the SRO is relieved of this
responsibility pursuant to Section
17(d) 4 or Section 19(g)(2) 5 of the Act.
Without this relief, the statutory
obligation of each individual SRO could
result in a pattern of multiple
examinations of broker-dealers that
maintain memberships in more than one
SRO (‘‘common members’’). Such
regulatory duplication would add
unnecessary expenses for common
members and their SROs.
Section 17(d)(1) of the Act 6 was
intended, in part, to eliminate
unnecessary multiple examinations and
regulatory duplication.7 With respect to
a common member, Section 17(d)(1)
authorizes the Commission, by rule or
order, to relieve an SRO of the
responsibility to receive regulatory
reports, to examine for and enforce
compliance with applicable statutes,
rules, and regulations, or to perform
other specified regulatory functions.
To implement Section 17(d)(1), the
Commission adopted two rules: Rule
17d–1 and Rule 17d–2 under the Act.8
Rule 17d–1 authorizes the Commission
to name a single SRO as the designated
examining authority (‘‘DEA’’) to
examine common members for
compliance with the financial
responsibility requirements imposed by
the Act, or by Commission or SRO
rules.9 When an SRO has been named as
a common member’s DEA, all other
SROs to which the common member
belongs are relieved of the responsibility
to examine the firm for compliance with
the applicable financial responsibility
rules. On its face, Rule 17d–1 deals only
