Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 73 / Tuesday, April 16, 2019 / Notices statement regarding the burden on competition. For the foregoing reasons, the Exchange believes that the proposal is consistent with the Act. B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Burden on Competition khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of the Act,8 the Exchange believes that the proposed rule change would not impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Instead, the Exchange believes that the proposed changes would foster liquidity provision and stability in the marketplace, thereby promoting price discovery and transparency and enhancing order execution opportunities for member organizations. In this regard, the Exchange believes that the transparency and competitiveness of attracting additional executions on an exchange market would encourage competition. Finally, the Exchange notes that it operates in a highly competitive market in which market participants can readily favor competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be excessive or rebate opportunities available at other venues to be more favorable. In such an environment, the Exchange must continually adjust its fees and rebates to remain competitive with other exchanges and with alternative trading systems that have been exempted from compliance with the statutory standards applicable to exchanges. Because competitors are free to modify their own fees and credits in response, and because market participants may readily adjust their order routing practices, the Exchange believes that the degree to which fee changes in this market may impose any burden on competition is extremely limited. As a result of all of these considerations, the Exchange does not believe that the proposed changes will impair the ability of member organizations or competing order execution venues to maintain their competitive standing in the financial markets. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others No written comments were solicited or received with respect to the proposed rule change. III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for Commission Action The foregoing rule change is effective upon filing pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act,9 and subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 10 thereunder, because it establishes a due, fee, or other charge imposed by the Exchange. At any time within 60 days of the filing of such proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission takes such action, the Commission shall institute proceedings under Section 19(b)(2)(B) 11 of the Act to determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or disapproved. IV. Solicitation of Comments Interested persons are invited to submit written data, views, and arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule change is consistent with the Act.

Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change The principal purpose of the proposed rule change is to revise ICC’s cash investment yield schedule. II. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, ICC 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. ICC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections (A), (B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of these statements. khammond on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES (A) Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change (a) Purpose ICC currently retains a portion of interest earned on cash balances, net of cash management expenses. The portion of interest retained is based on an established cash investment yield schedule, which is set forth in the ICC Collateral Management presentation available on the ICC website.5 ICC proposes changes to its cash investment yield schedule. The proposed revisions to the cash investment yield schedule are set forth in Exhibit 5 hereto, and described in detail as follows. Currently, ICC retains a certain basis points (‘‘bps’’) spread for interest rate market environments of zero bps or greater, net of expenses. ICC proposes to retain an additional 50 bps spread for non-customer Euro cash posted by Clearing Participants (‘‘CPs’’) in excess of certain amounts. ICC identifies Euro House Initial Margin (‘‘IM’’) and Euro Guaranty Fund (‘‘GF’’) requirements (collectively, the ‘‘total Euro requirement’’) for CPs who clear Euro denominated products, and US Dollar (‘‘USD’’) House IM and USD GF requirements (collectively, the ‘‘total USD requirement’’) for CPs who clear USD denominated products. A CP may meet up to 100% (but no less than 45%) of its total Euro requirement in Euro cash and up to 35% of its total USD requirement in Euro cash.6 ICC proposes to retain an additional 50 bps spread for non-customer Euro cash posted by CPs in excess of their total Euro requirement 5 ICC Collateral Management presentation available at: https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/ clear_credit/ICE_Clear_Credit_Collateral_ Management.pdf. 6 See Schedule 401 of the ICC Rules.

ICC proposes to make such changes effective on or about June 1, 2019. ICC will issue a circular notification, in advance of the effective date. (b) Statutory Basis ICC believes that the proposed rule changes are consistent with the requirements of the Act, including Section 17A of the Act.7 More specifically, the proposed rule changes change a member due, fee or other charge imposed by ICC under Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) 8 of the Act and Rule 19b– 4(f)(2) 9 thereunder. ICC believes the proposed rule changes are consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules and regulations thereunder applicable to ICC, in particular, to Section 17A(b)(3)(D),10 because the proposed changes apply equally to all market participants and therefore the proposed changes provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among participants. As such, the proposed changes are appropriately filed pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 11 of the Act and paragraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 12 thereunder. (B) Clearing Agency’s Statement on Burden on Competition ICC does not believe the proposed rule changes would have any impact, or impose any burden, on competition. The changes to ICC’s investment yield schedule will apply uniformly across all market participants. Therefore, ICC does not believe the proposed rule changes impose any burden on competition that is inappropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. (C) Clearing Agency’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants or Others Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not been solicited or received.

The SBA plans to conduct a web-based survey to understand to what degree the Agency’s WBC programs and services help entrepreneurs start, manage, and grow businesses. The survey will help determine customer satisfaction and the outcomes of the delivered business assistance services. Surveys will be completed by a sample of clients who received business assistance services at least 1 year ago. A minimum 1-year lag is desired to allow the business outcomes of the services to be observed.

I. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the 
Proposed Rule Change

    The principal purpose of the proposed rule change is to revise 
ICC's cash investment yield schedule.

II. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis 
for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, ICC 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. ICC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections (A), 
(B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of these 
statements.

(A) Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis 
for, the Proposed Rule Change

(a) Purpose
    ICC currently retains a portion of interest earned on cash 
balances, net of cash management expenses. The portion of interest 
retained is based on an established cash investment yield schedule, 
which is set forth in the ICC Collateral Management presentation 
available on the ICC website.\5\ ICC proposes changes to its cash 
investment yield schedule. The proposed revisions to the cash 
investment yield schedule are set forth in Exhibit 5 hereto, and 
described in detail as follows.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ ICC Collateral Management presentation available at: https://www.theice.com/publicdocs/clear_credit/ICE_Clear_Credit_Collateral_Management.pdf.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Currently, ICC retains a certain basis points (``bps'') spread for 
interest rate market environments of zero bps or greater, net of 
expenses. ICC proposes to retain an additional 50 bps spread for non-
customer Euro cash posted by Clearing Participants (``CPs'') in excess 
of certain amounts. ICC identifies Euro House Initial Margin (``IM'') 
and Euro Guaranty Fund (``GF'') requirements (collectively, the ``total 
Euro requirement'') for CPs who clear Euro denominated products, and US 
Dollar (``USD'') House IM and USD GF requirements (collectively, the 
``total USD requirement'') for CPs who clear USD denominated products. 
A CP may meet up to 100% (but no less than 45%) of its total Euro 
requirement in Euro cash and up to 35% of its total USD requirement in 
Euro cash.\6\ ICC proposes to retain an additional 50 bps spread for 
non-customer Euro cash posted by CPs in excess of their total Euro 
requirement to discourage excess Euro deposits since ICC faces 
difficulty securitizing Euro deposits and is exposed to the credit and 
counterparty risk of banks where Euro deposits are held.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See Schedule 401 of the ICC Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    ICC proposes to make such changes effective on or about June 1, 
2019. ICC will issue a circular notification, in advance of the 
effective date.
(b) Statutory Basis
    ICC believes that the proposed rule changes are consistent with the 
requirements of the Act, including Section 17A of the Act.\7\ More 
specifically, the proposed rule changes change a member due, fee or 
other charge imposed by ICC under Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) \8\ of the 
Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \9\ thereunder. ICC believes the proposed rule 
changes are consistent with the requirements of the Act and the rules 
and regulations thereunder applicable to ICC, in particular, to Section 
17A(b)(3)(D),\10\ because the proposed changes apply equally to all 
market participants and therefore the proposed changes provide for the 
equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and other charges among 
participants. As such, the proposed changes are appropriately filed 
pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) \11\ of the Act and paragraph (f)(2) of 
Rule 19b-4 \12\ thereunder.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(B) Clearing Agency's Statement on Burden on Competition

    ICC does not believe the proposed rule changes would have any 
impact, or impose any burden, on competition. The changes to ICC's 
investment yield schedule will apply uniformly across all market 
participants. Therefore, ICC does not believe the proposed rule changes 
impose any burden on competition that is inappropriate in furtherance 
of the purposes of the Act.

(C) Clearing Agency's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change 
Received From Members, Participants or Others

    Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not been 
solicited or received. ICC will notify the Commission of any written 
comments received by ICC.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change for Commission 
Action

    The foregoing rule change has become effective pursuant to Section 
19(b)(3)(A) \13\ of the Act and Rule 19b-4(f)(2) \14\ thereunder, as 
the changes to ICC's investment yield schedule constitute a change to a 
due, fee, or other charge applicable only to a member. At any time 
within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule change, the 
Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule change if it 
appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or appropriate 
in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or otherwise 
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
