Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe Exchange, Inc.; Notice of Filing and Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change Relating To Amend Its Fees Schedule November 4, 2020. Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2 notice is hereby given that on October 28, 2020, Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘Cboe Options’’) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the ‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule change as described in Items I, II, and III below, which Items have been prepared by the Exchange. The Commission is publishing this notice to solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons. I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Terms of Substance of the Proposed Rule Change Cboe Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘Cboe Options’’) proposes to amend its Fees Schedule. The text of the proposed rule change is provided in Exhibit 5. The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the Exchange’s website (https://www.cboe.com/ AboutCBOE/ CBOELegalRegulatoryHome.aspx), at the Exchange’s Office of the Secretary, and at the Commission’s Public Reference Room. II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange 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. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of 1 15 2 17 PO 00000 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1). CFR 240.19b–4. Frm 00103 Fmt 4703 71705 A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The Exchange proposes to amend its Fees Schedule in connection with Compression, or Position Compression Cross (‘‘PCC’’), orders, effective October 29, 2020. By way of background, the Exchange has historically permitted open outcry compression forums which allow Trading Permit Holders (‘‘TPHs’’) to reduce open interest in SPX options. Footnote 41 of the Fees Schedule currently provides a rebate of transaction fees, including the Index License Surcharge, for closing transactions involving SPX and SPXW compression-list positions executed in a compression forum. From March 16 to June 12, 2020, the Exchange’s trading floor was closed due to the coronavirus pandemic. During that time, the Exchange operated in an all-electronic configuration, which would have prevented market participants from reducing open SPX interest in open outcry compression forums. As a result, the Exchange adopted Rule 5.24(e)(1)(E) to permit TPHs to reduce open interest in SPX options in electronic compression forums in the same manner as an open outcry compression forum (as set forth in Rule 5.88) while the trading floor was inoperable.3 Footnote 12 of the Fees Schedule was also amended to provide a waiver for all transaction fees, including any applicable surcharges (e.g., Index License Surcharge and SPX/SPXW Execution Surcharges), for closing transactions involving SPX and SPXW compression-list positions executed in an electronic compression forum, like that of the waiver provided in footnote 41 for open outcry compression forums.4 The Exchange recently adopted Compression, or ‘‘PCC’’, orders that can be executed electronically or in open outcry on a permanent basis, and, as a result, removed Rule 5.24(e)(1)(E), as well as relocated and amended Rule 5.88.5 The Exchange notes that PCC 3 See Securities Exchange Release No. 88490 (March 26, 2020), 85 FR 18318 (April 1, 2020) (SR– CBOE–2020–026). 4 See Securities Exchange Release No. 88678 (April 17, 2020), 85 FR 22770 April 23, 2020) (SR– CBOE–2020–033). 5 See Securities Exchange Release Nos. 89707 (August 28, 2020), 85 FR 55040 (September 3, 2020) (SR–CBOE–2020–074) (Notice of Filing of a Proposed Rule Change Relating To Adopt Continued Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\10NON1.SGM 10NON1
