Download as PDF 2862 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 13 / Friday, January 19, 2018 / Notices market may impose any burden on competition is extremely limited. In this instance, the proposed changes to the credits available to members for execution of securities in securities of all three Tapes do not impose a burden on competition because the Exchange’s execution services are completely voluntary and subject to extensive competition both from other exchanges and from off-exchange venues. The Exchange is proposing to decrease the amount of credit provided, increase the qualification requirement to receive a credit, eliminate a credit that has been unsuccessful at improving market quality significantly, and ease the criteria of a credit in an effort to improve market quality in the Nasdaq Closing Cross. These changes are reflective of the Exchange’s need to balance the incentives that it provides in return for the market improving behavior it seeks to incentivize. As discussed above, the Exchange has limited funds to apply toward incentives, and therefore must adjust the amount of credit provided, change credit tier qualification criteria, and in some cases discontinue credits altogether, to ensure that it has applied those limited funds most efficiently. In sum, if the changes proposed herein are unattractive to market participants, it is likely that the Exchange will lose market share as a result. Accordingly, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed changes will impair the ability of members or competing order execution venues to maintain their competitive standing in the financial markets. daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES C.

Specifically, SBA’s goal is to examine Leveraged licensees (SBICs with outstanding leverage, commitments, or earmarked assets) on a 12-month cycle and Non-leveraged licensees on a 18month cycle. For newly licensed SBICs, the initial examination generally is conducted within six months of licensing.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Small Business Investment Act of 1958, 
as amended, requires SBA to examine small business investment 
companies, (``SBICs'' or ``Licensees''). The statute requires 
examination at least every two years; however, generally SBA aims to 
examine SBICs more frequently. Specifically, SBA's goal is to examine 
Leveraged licensees (SBICs with outstanding leverage, commitments, or 
earmarked assets) on a 12-month cycle and Non-leveraged licensees on a 
18-month cycle. For newly licensed SBICs, the initial examination 
generally is conducted within six months of licensing.
    At the time SBA notifies the SBIC of the pending examination, the 
agency also identifies certain information the SBIC will be required to 
submit at the commencement of the examination process to assist 
examiners in planning the examination. Additionally, the information 
will provide a basis for: (a)

Determining SBIC compliance with the Small Business Investment Act of 
1958, as amended (``Act'') and implementing regulations; (b) assessing 
the financial condition of SBICs and SBA's vulnerability; and (c) 
ensuring the accuracy of information that SBICs submit to SBA.
    The information to be collected consists of documentation falling 
into three broad categories: Portfolio information, Licensee documents, 
and accountant workpapers. Portfolio information covers investments 
made by the SBIC during the period covered by the examination, 
including, but not limited to, organizational and financial 
information, schedules of balances and repayments, and financing legal 
documents. Licensee documents deal with the SBIC's organization and 
operations, including, but not limited to, banking and financial 
information, corporate governance, and capital documentation. Finally, 
accountant workpapers relate to the engagement of an independent public 
accountant, including, but not limited to engagement letters and 
management representation letters.
    Comments are invited on (a) whether this reporting requirement is 
necessary for the agency to properly perform its functions; (b) whether 
the burden estimates are accurate; (c) whether there are ways to 
minimize the burden, including through the use of automated techniques 
or other forms of information technology; and (d) whether there are 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the requested 
information.
