Rule 15b11–1 provides that a broker or dealer may register by notice pursuant to section 15(b)(11)(A) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78o(b)(11)(A)) if it: (1) Is registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission as a futures commission merchant or an introducing broker, as those terms are defined in the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. 1, et seq.); (2) is a member of the National Futures Association or another national securities association registered under section 15A(k) of the Exchange Act (15 U.S.C. 78o–3(k)); and (3) is not required to register as a broker or dealer in connection with transactions in securities other than security futures products.

In addition, the rule provides that if the information provided by filing the form is or becomes inaccurate for any reason, the broker or dealer shall promptly file an amendment on the form correcting such information. The Commission staff estimates that the total annual reporting burden associated with Rule 15b11–1 and Form BD–N is approximately two hours, based on an average of two initial notice registrations per year that each take approximately 30 minutes to complete, for one hour, plus an average of three amendments per year that each take approximately fifteen minutes to VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:23 Dec 10, 2019 Jkt 250001 complete, for 0.75 hours, rounded up to one hour, for a total of two hours.
