II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
In its filing with the Commission, the
self-regulatory organization included
statements concerning the purpose of
and basis for the proposed rule change
and discussed any comments it received
on the proposed rule change. The text
of these statements may be examined at
the places specified in Item IV below.
The self-regulatory organization has
prepared summaries, set forth in
Sections A, B, and C below, of the most
significant aspects of such statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
On August 10, 2017, the Commission
approved a proposed rule change by the
Exchange to adopt rules governing
auctions, including dissemination of
auction-related market data, for
securities listed on the Exchange
pursuant to Chapter 14 of the IEX Rule
Book.8 The Exchange proposes to
update its Fee Schedule, pursuant to
IEX Rule 15.110(a) and (c), to add new
Fee Codes to identify the fees applicable
to orders that execute in IEX Auctions.
The IEX Auction processes are designed
to maximize participation in the
auctions in order to provide an efficient
price discovery process and greater
opportunity for execution at the official
auction price. The Exchange believes
that fees are an important component of
the IEX Auction processes, in that
execution fees can influence the trading
behavior of Members by creating
economic incentives (and disincentives)
for Members that participate in IEX
Auctions. Thus, the Exchange is
proposing fees that are similarly
designed to incentivize participation in
IEX Auctions in order to further support
an efficient price discovery process and
greater opportunity for execution at the
official auction price.
The Exchange proposes to apply the
following new Fee Codes:
• Executions in the Opening Auction 9
will receive Fee Code ‘‘O’’
• Executions in the Closing Auction 10
will receive Fee Code ‘‘C’’
8 See Securities and Exchange Act Release No.
81316 (August 4, 2017), 82 FR 37474 (August 10,
2017) (SR–IEX–2017–10).
9 See Rule 11.350(c).
10 See Rule 11.350(d).
