Specifically, the Commission instituted proceedings to allow for additional analysis of the proposed rule change’s consistency with Section 6(b)(5) of the Act, which requires, among other things, that the rules of a national securities exchange be ‘‘designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to promote just and equitable principles of trade,’’ and ‘‘to protect investors and the public interest.’’ See id. at 15426 (citing 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5)). 8 See Letters from Anita Desai (Apr. 6, 2018); Ed Kaleda (Apr. 6, 2018); Don Krohn (Apr. 7, 2018); Adam Malkin (Apr. 8, 2018); Shravan Kumar (Apr. 11, 2018); David Barnwell (Apr. 12, 2018); Louise Fitzgerald (Apr. 18, 2018); and Sharon Brown- PO 00000 1 15 2 17 Frm 00130 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Section 19(b)(2) of the Act 9 provides that, after initiating disapproval proceedings, the Commission shall issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change not later than 180 days after the date of publication of notice of filing of the proposed rule change.

The proposed rule change was published for notice and comment in the Federal Register on January 18, 2018. July 17, 2018, is 180 days from that date, and September 15, 2018, is 240 days from that date. The Commission finds it appropriate to designate a longer period within which to issue an order approving or disapproving the proposed rule change so that it has sufficient time to consider this proposed rule change. Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) of the Act,10 designates September 15, 2018, as the date by which the Commission shall either approve or disapprove the proposed rule change (File No. SR–CboeBZX– 2018–001).
