(‘‘FOCUS Report’’), a form which is

the Commission adopted recordkeeping,
reporting, and notification requirements
for security-based swap dealers and
major security-based swap participants
(collectively, ‘‘security-based swap
entities’’ or ‘‘SBSEs’’) and additional
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements for broker-dealers to
account for their security-based swap
activities.1 In adopting these
requirements, the Commission amended
Part II of the FOCUS Report to elicit
additional information about the
security-based swap activities of brokerdealers that file Part II, including
broker-dealers that will also be
registered as SBSEs. In addition, the
Commission adopted amendments that
will require the broker-dealers that
currently file Part IIB and Part II CSE to
file revised Part II. Further, the
Commission adopted a rule (‘‘Rule 18a–
7’’) pursuant to Section 15F of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(‘‘Exchange Act’’) that will require
SBSEs that are not also registered with
the Commission as broker-dealers or
regulated by a prudential regulator
(‘‘stand-alone SBSEs’’) to file Part II of
the FOCUS Report on a monthly basis
and SBSEs for which there is a
prudential regulator (‘‘bank SBSEs’’) to
file new Part IIC of the FOCUS Report
on a quarterly basis.2 The compliance
date for these entities to file revised Part
II or new Part IIC of the FOCUS Report
is October 6, 2021.3
Most broker-dealers currently file the
FOCUS Report electronically on the
eFOCUS system 4 developed by the
Financial Industry Regulatory
Authority, Inc. (‘‘FINRA’’). These
broker-dealers file the FOCUS Report
pursuant to a plan established by the
broker-dealer’s self-regulatory
organization (‘‘SRO’’), the procedures
and provisions of which have been
submitted to and declared effective by
the Commission pursuant to paragraph
(a)(3) of Exchange Act Rule 17a–5.5

(‘‘Recordkeeping Adopting Release’’).
