Presidential Declaration of a Major Disaster for Public Assistance Only for the State of Alabama, 31777-31778 [2021-12543]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 113 / Tuesday, June 15, 2021 / Notices SEC’s changes to Rule 15c2–11, is the addition of a modified Form 211 requirement that would be applicable to a Qualified IDQS that engages in the initial information review of a security. The Qualified IDQS would be required to submit the modified Form 211 to FINRA by the end of the next business day after the Qualified IDQS’s publicly available determination was made. Economic Baseline The economic baseline considers investor protection and members’ regulatory burden in the absence of the proposed rule change in light of the SEC’s amended rule. Among other things, amended Rule 15c2–11 permits a broker-dealer to rely on a Qualified IDQS to perform the initial information review required by the rule. Where a broker-dealer subscriber is not relying on the initial review of a Qualified IDQS, it must submit a standard Form 211 to FINRA and await notification that the form has been processed prior to initiating quotations in the security. SEA Rule 15c2–11 and FINRA Rule 6432 generally govern the quotation conduct of broker-dealers initiating quotes in equity securities in the OTC market.24 khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES Economic Impacts The proposed rule change would likely improve FINRA’s oversight of the OTC market given the amendments to Rule 15c2–11. Specifically, by requiring the Qualified IDQS to submit (i) an after-the-fact, modified Form 211 filing in connection with publicly available determinations related to an initial information review, and (ii) a daily security file containing summary Rule 15c2–11-related information for each security quoted on its system, FINRA would have data necessary to monitor for Rule 15c2–11 compliance by the Qualified IDQSs and other members. The daily security file also would enhance FINRA’s surveillance capabilities, which furthers investor protection. FINRA acknowledges that a Qualified IDQS could incur some operational costs in submitting the modified Form 211 filing and daily security file to FINRA. Where the Qualified IDQS decides to undertake an initial review, the costs of filing a Form 211 would be shifted from broker-dealer subscribers to the Qualified IDQS. 24 There were 3,435 FINRA member firms as of the end of 2020. Over the 2018 to 2020 period, an average 11,018 OTC equity securities were quoted with a price per year. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:02 Jun 14, 2021 Jkt 253001 Alternatives Considered FINRA considered not implementing a filing requirement for a Qualified IDQS. FINRA determined that the afterthe-fact submission requirement strikes an appropriate balance by providing FINRA with important information with which to oversee Qualified IDQS compliance without involving the delay of a FINRA processing time prior to the initiation of quoting, consistent with the SEC’s goals to reduce burdens on broker-dealers while maintaining investor protection. C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others Written comments were neither solicited nor received. III.
