Rule 15c2–1
Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 15c2–1, (17 CFR
240.15c2–1), under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.). The Commission plans to submit
this existing collection of information to
the Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval.
Rule 15c2–1 prohibits the
commingling under the same lien of
securities of margin customers (a) with
other customers without their written
consent, and (b) with the broker-dealer.
The rule also prohibits the rehypothecation of customers’ margin
securities for a sum in excess of the
customer’s aggregate indebtedness.
Pursuant to Rule 15c2–1, respondents
must collect information necessary to
prevent the re-hypothecation of
customer securities in contravention of
the rule, issue and retain copies of
notices of hypothecation of customer
securities in accordance with the rule,
and collect written consents from
customers in accordance with the rule.
The information is necessary to ensure
compliance with the rule, and to advise
customers of the rule’s protections.
There are approximately 48
respondents (i.e., broker-dealers that
conducted business with the public,
filed Part II or Part IICSE of the FOCUS
Report, did not claim an exemption
from the Rule 15c3–3 reserve formula
computation, and reported that they had
a bank loan during at least one quarter
of the current year) that require an
aggregate total of approximately 1,080
hours to comply with the rule. Each of
these approximately 48 registered
broker-dealers makes an estimated 45
annual responses. Each response takes
approximately 0.5 hours to complete.
Thus, the total burden per year is
approximately 1,080 hours.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
Whether the proposed collection of

Jkt 253001
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimates of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Consideration will be given to
comments and suggestions submitted in
writing within 60 days of this
publication.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
