Immediate Effectiveness of Proposed
Rule Change To Amend Rule 7.37 To

Feeds From MEMX LLC

Pursuant to section 19(b)(1) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the

statements.

1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to update and
amend the use of data feeds table in
Rule 7.37(d), which sets forth on a
market-by-market basis the specific
securities information processor (‘‘SIP’’)
and proprietary data feeds that the
Exchange utilizes for the handling,
execution, and routing of orders, and for
performing the regulatory compliance
checks related to each of those
functions. Specifically, the Exchange
proposes to amend the table in Rule
7.37(d) to specify that, with respect to
MEMX, the Exchange will receive a
MEMX direct feed as its primary source
of data for order handling, order
execution, order routing, and regulatory
compliance, and will use the SIP Data
Feed as its secondary source for data
from MEMX.
The Exchange proposes to make this
change operative in the third quarter of
2023, and, in any event, before
September 30, 2023. The Exchange
proposes to announce the
implementation date of this change by
Trader Update.
2. Statutory Basis
The proposed rule change is
consistent with section 6(b) of the Act,3
in general, and furthers the objectives of
section 6(b)(5),4 in particular, because it
is designed to prevent fraudulent and
manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of
trade, to foster cooperation and
coordination with persons engaged in
facilitating transactions in securities, to
remove impediments to, and perfect the
mechanism of, a free and open market
and a national market system and, in
general, to protect investors and the
public interest. Additionally, the
Exchange believes that the proposed
rule change is consistent with the
section 6(b)(5) requirement that the
rules of an exchange not be designed to
permit unfair discrimination between
customers, issuers, brokers, or dealers.
The Exchange believes its proposal to
update the table in Rule 7.37(d) to
include the MEMX direct feed will
ensure that the Rule correctly identifies
and publicly states on a market-bymarket basis all of the specific SIP and
proprietary data feeds that the Exchange
utilizes for the handling, execution, and
routing of orders, and for performing the
regulatory compliance checks for each

of those functions. The proposed rule
change also removes impediments to
and perfects the mechanism of a free
and open market and protects investors
and the public interest by providing
additional specificity, clarity, and
transparency in the Exchange’s rules.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that
the proposed rule change will impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. Rather, the
Exchange believes that the proposal will
enhance competition because providing
the public and market participants with
up-to-date information about the data
feeds the Exchange will use for the
handling, execution, and routing of
orders, as well as for regulatory
compliance would enhance
transparency and enable investors to
better assess the quality of the
Exchange’s execution and routing
services. The Exchange also believes the
proposal would enhance competition
because it would potentially enhance
the performance of its order handling
and execution of orders in equity
securities by receiving market data
directly from MEMX. Finally, the
proposed rule change would not impact
competition between market
participants because it will affect all
market participants equally.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The Exchange has filed the proposed
rule change pursuant to section
19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 5 and Rule
19b–4(f)(6) thereunder.6 Because the
proposed rule change does not: (i)
significantly affect the protection of
investors or the public interest; (ii)
impose any significant burden on
competition; and (iii) become operative
prior to 30 days from the date on which
it was filed, or such shorter time as the
Commission may designate, if
consistent with the protection of
investors and the public interest, the
proposed rule change has become
effective pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A)

public interest, for the protection of
investors, or otherwise in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act. If the
Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings
under section 19(b)(2)(B) 9 of the Act to
determine whether the proposed rule
change should be approved or
disapproved.

change is consistent with the Act.
