Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 97 / Tuesday, May 19, 2020 / Notices
Because stand-alone SBSEs and bank
SBSEs will not be dually registered as
broker-dealers, they will not be
supervised by SROs and therefore are
not subject to the SRO plans requiring
the FOCUS Report to be filed on
FINRA’s eFOCUS system. Rule 18a–7
requires stand-alone SBSEs and bank
SBSEs to file the FOCUS Report with
‘‘the Commission or its designee’’ 6 to
provide the Commission with the option
of requiring that these registrants file the
FOCUS Report with a third party.7 By
this order, the Commission is
designating FINRA as the organization
with which stand-alone SBSEs and bank
SBSEs must file revised Part II and new
Part IIC of the FOCUS Report,
respectively, on and after the October 6,
2021, compliance date.
II. Discussion
FINRA is uniquely qualified to
provide the Commission with a familiar
and consolidated platform for standalone SBSEs and bank SBSEs to file the
FOCUS Report, uniform ancillary
ongoing services associated with these
filings, and a consolidated platform for
transmitting this data to the
Commission.
First, FINRA-supervised brokerdealers currently file the FOCUS Report
through the eFOCUS system owned and
operated by FINRA. The Commission
anticipates many firms that register as
stand-alone SBSEs and bank SBSEs will
be affiliated with broker-dealers that
currently use the eFOCUS system.
FINRA’s eFOCUS system is unique in
that it would enable the broker-dealer
and non-broker-dealer entities to file
both entities’ FOCUS Reports on the
same platform using the same
preexisting templates, software, and
procedures currently used by the
broker-dealer.
Second, FINRA is uniquely able to
transmit the data in the FOCUS Report
filings by broker-dealers and nonbroker-dealer SBSEs in a consolidated
data transmission to the Commission.
Thus, Commission staff will be able to
compare data between these different
types of entities in a consistent manner
and in the same database, which will
allow staff to monitor these registrants
more effectively.
Third, if FINRA is not designated to
receive FOCUS Report filings from
stand-alone and bank SBSEs, a separate,
parallel filing system would need to be
created only for non-FINRA supervised
filers, which would create complexity
and redundancy because the same

information for required filers would be
located on two different filing systems.
This, in turn, could create unnecessary
confusion and uncertainty for filers. It
might also inadvertently result in
different available services simply based
on which filing system the entity is
assigned to use.
III. Conclusion
It is hereby ordered that FINRA is
designated as the organization with
which stand-alone SBSEs must file Part
II of FOCUS Report and bank SBSEs
must file Part IIC of the FOCUS Report
in accordance with the requirements of
those filings, Section 15F of the
Exchange Act, and Rule 18a–7.8
By the Commission.
