Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 112 / Wednesday, June 10, 2020 / Notices
A proposed rule change filed
pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6) under the
Act 33 normally does not become
operative for 30 days after the date of its
filing. However, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 34
permits the Commission to designate a
shorter time if such action is consistent
with the protection of investors and the
public interest. The Exchange has asked
the Commission to waive the 30-day
operative delay so that the proposal may
become operative upon filing. The
Exchange states that a waiver of the
operative delay is consistent with the
protection of investors and the public
interest because it would allow for the
immediate trading, pursuant to UTP, of
Tracking Fund Shares on the Exchange
and therefore would provide investors
with an additional trading venue option.
The Commission believes that waiver of
the 30-day operative delay is consistent
with the protection of investors and the
public interest. Therefore, the
Commission hereby waives the
operative delay and designates the
proposed rule change operative upon
filing.35
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.
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.
