Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 64 / Tuesday, April 3, 2018 / Notices amozie on DSK30RV082PROD with NOTICES basis, in accordance with the procedures set forth in Exchange Rule 8040(d). Upon receipt of a Directed Order from an OFP,9 an EP must either submit the Directed Order to the PIP, or send the Directed Order to the BOX Book.10 In addition, the BOX Trading Host will send the Directed Order to the BOX Book: (i) If the EP has not taken action within one second of receipt of a Directed Order; 11 (ii) if the Market Maker that the order is directed to has not systematically indicated that it is an EP; 12 (iii) upon receipt of a subsequent Directed Order for the same EP for the same series and side of the market if a Guaranteed Directed Order (‘‘GDO’’) 13 has been automatically generated and is pending; 14 or (iv) if a Directed Order is modified once the BOX Trading Host has established a GDO.15 As noted above, BOX proposes that if a Directed Order with an Auction Only designation would be sent to the BOX Book for any reason, it will instead be cancelled back to the OFP that submitted the Directed Order.16 The Exchange notes that, under the proposal, the Auction Only designation will be automatically applied by the system, and the designation will not be disclosed to the EP.17 The Exchange represents that it will provide at least two weeks’ notice to Participants via Circular prior to the launch of the proposed change, which the Exchange anticipates will be during the second quarter of 2018.18 as specialists on the Exchange for all purposes under the Act or Rules thereunder. See Exchange Rule 100(a)(31). 9 An OFP is an Options Participant representing as agent Customer Orders on the Exchange or a nonMarket Maker Participant conducting proprietary trading. See Exchange Rule 100(a)(46). 10 See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(3). 11 See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(4). 12 See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(1). 13 If a Directed Order is executable against the current national best bid or offer (‘‘NBBO’’) and the EP is also quoting at such NBBO on the opposite side of the Directed Order, then the Trading Host will immediately upon receipt of the Directed Order take down the EP’s quote and guarantee the EP’s execution of the Directed Order for at least the price and size of the EP’s quote. This guarantee is the GDO, and the EP’s quote will not be reestablished until the Directed Order has been processed pursuant to Exchange Rule 8040(d). See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(2)(i). 14 See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(2)(ii). 15 See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(5). 16 The Exchange notes that interest on the BOX Book may still interact with a Directed Order that has an Auction Only designation via the PIP allocation. See Exchange Rule 7150(g). 17 The Exchange notes that existing restrictions on an EP’s behavior will continue to apply. Specifically, an EP shall not submit to the Exchange a contra order to the Directed Order for its proprietary account during the one second following submission of the Directed Order to the Exchange. See Exchange Rule 8040(d)(6)(i). 18 See Notice, supra note 4, at 7085. VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:47 Apr 02, 2018 Jkt 244001 III. Discussion and Commission’s Findings After careful review, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to a national securities exchange.19 In particular, the Commission finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act,20 which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be designed to promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation and coordination with persons engaged in regulating transactions in securities, 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. The Commission also finds that the proposed rule change is consistent with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,21 which requires that the rules of an exchange not impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. The Commission believes that the Auction Only designation will provide OFPs with greater control over how their Directed Orders are handled by the EP, as OFPs will have certainty that their Directed Orders with the Auction Only designation will either be executed in the PIP or cancelled.22 In addition, should the Directed Order be entered into the PIP, the Directed Order will receive the opportunity for price improvement.23 Moreover, the Commission notes that an EP will not be notified whether a Directed Order was submitted with the Auction Only designation,24 and current restrictions on an EP’s behavior with respect to Directed Orders will continue to apply.25 Accordingly, the Commission believes that the Exchange’s proposal is consistent with the Act. 19 In approving this proposed rule change, the Commission has considered the proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 20 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5). 21 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(8). 22 The Exchange notes that, pursuant to Exchange Rule 7150(f), a customer order that is submitted to the PIP must be submitted with a matching contra side order equal to the full size of the customer order and as such, the order is guaranteed to be fully executed. See Notice, supra note 4, at 7085 n.13. 23 See Exchange Rule 7150. 24 See proposed IM–8040–3 to Exchange Rule 8040. 25 See supra note 17. PO 00000 Frm 00068 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 14305 IV. Conclusion It is therefore ordered, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,26 that the proposed rule change (SR–BOX–2018– 06) be, and hereby is, approved. For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated authority.27 Jill Peterson, Assistant Secretary.
