The Exchange has prepared summaries,
set forth in sections A, B, and C below,
of the most significant parts of such
statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement of the Purpose of, and the
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule
Change
1. Purpose
The purpose of this proposed rule
change is to amend the Rule 6.6800
Series to be consistent with the
Allocation Exemption. The Commission
granted the relief conditioned upon the
Participants’ adoption of Compliance
Rules that implement the alternative
approach to reporting allocations to the
Central Repository described in the
Allocation Exemption (referred to as the
‘‘Allocation Alternative’’).
(1) Request for Exemptive Relief
Pursuant to Section 6.4(d)(ii)(A) of the
CAT NMS Plan, each Participant must,
through its Compliance Rule, require its
Industry Members to record and report
to the Central Repository, if the order is
executed, in whole or in part: (1) An
Allocation Report; 5 (2) the SROAssigned Market Participant Identifier
of the clearing broker or prime broker,
if applicable; and the (3) CAT-Order-ID
of any contra-side order(s). Accordingly,
the Exchange and the other Participants
implemented Compliance Rules that
require their Industry Members that are
executing brokers to submit to the
Central Repository, among other things,
Allocation Reports and the SROAssigned Market Participant Identifier
of the clearing broker or prime broker,
if applicable.
On August 27, 2020, the Participants
submitted to the Commission a request
for an exemption from certain allocation
reporting requirements set forth in
Sections 6.4(d)(ii)(A)(1) and (2) of the
CAT NMS Plan (‘‘Exemption
Request’’).6 In the Exemption Request,
the Participants requested that they be
permitted to implement the Allocation
Alternative, which, as noted above, is an
alternative approach to reporting
5 Section 1.1 of the CAT NMS Plan defines an
‘‘Allocation Report’’ as ‘‘a report made to the
Central Repository by an Industry Member that
identifies the Firm Designated ID for any account(s),
including subaccount(s), to which executed shares
are allocated and provides the security that has
been allocated, the identifier of the firm reporting
the allocation, the price per share of shares
allocated, the side of shares allocated, the number
of shares allocated to each account, and the time of
the allocation; provided for the avoidance of doubt,
any such Allocation Report shall not be required to
be linked to particular orders or executions.’’
6 See letter from the Participants to Vanessa
Countryman, Secretary, Commission, dated August
27, 2020 (the ‘‘Exemption Request’’).
