LCH SA has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements. A. Clearing Agency’s Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change 1. Purpose The purpose of the Proposed Rule Change is for LCH SA to extend to CDSClear the Fee Grid currently applicable to the Triparty Collateral mechanism for the Non-U.S. Business. As part of the process to further enhance its triparty collateral solution with Euroclear Bank and Euroclear France 7 and to align the triparty collateral service offering across LCH SA clearing services, to include CDSClear, LCH SA is proposing to adopt the Fee Grid upon filing with the SEC, following the Commission’s order approving the proposed rule change relating to the Triparty Collateral mechanism.8 5 Self-Regulatory Organizations; LCH SA; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change Relating to Triparty Collateral Mechanism; Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34–98009 (July 27, 2023); 88 FR 50923 (August 2, 2023) (File No. SR–LCH SA– 2023–004). 6 All capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the same definition as in the Rule Book or Procedures, as applicable. 7 https://my.euroclear.com/dam/EB/ Tariff%20information/MA0007_General_Fees.pdf (See Collateral management fees, p. 11). 8 See Self-Regulatory Organizations; LCH SA; Order Approving Proposed Rule Change Relating to Triparty Collateral Mechanism; Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34–98009 (July 27, 2023); 88 FR PO 00000 Frm 00102 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 LCH SA is proposing to adopt for CDSClear the following triparty fees currently applicable to the LCH SA Non-U.S. Business: —For Government Securities from Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain, the applicable fee is 9.5bps; —For Supranational entities and Agencies, the applicable fee is 11.5bps LCH SA will reflect this change by amending the footnote applicable to triparty collateral fees in the Fee Grid to state the triparty collateral fees are also applicable to CDSClear. Specifically, the amended footnote will state: ‘‘** Effective 1 April 2023 for EquityClear, CommodityClear, RepoClear and ÖGCPlus (House & Clients activities). Effective 23 August 2023 for CDSClear.’’ The applicable Fee Grid has been annexed as Exhibit 5 [sic]. No amendments to the Rule Book or Procedures are required for these changes to become effective. 2. Statutory Basis LCH SA believes that the Proposed Rule Change is consistent with the requirements of section 17A of the Act 9 and the regulations thereunder. section 17A(b)(3)(D) of the Act 10 requires that the rules of a clearing agency provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among Clearing Members and market participants by ensuring that Clearing Members and clients pay reasonable fees and dues for the services provided by LCH SA, within the meaning of section 17A(b)(3)(D) of the Act. The wider offering of eligible collateral through the triparty collateral solution with the relevant proposed applicable fees will provide greater collateral optimization opportunities for LCH SA Clearing Members. In addition, the spread between the triparty collateral solution and the bilateral Full Transfer of Title deposit option will be 1.5bps and is consistent with the Euroclear Triparty service paid by Clearing Members.11 LCH SA does not anticipate the Proposed Rule Change to result in any material increase in Clearing Members fees and expenses or result in any material changes to CDSClear revenue. For these reasons, LCH SA believes that the Proposed Rule Change is 50923 (August 2, 2023) (File No. SR–LCH SA– 2023–004). 9 15 U.S.C. 78q–1. 10 15 U.S.C. 78q–1(b)(D)(3). 11 https://my.euroclear.com/dam/EB/ Tariff%20information/MA0007_General_Fees.pdf (See Collateral management fees, p. 11).

Specifically, LCH SA believes the adoption of the Fee Grid is reasonable and has been set up at an appropriate level given the costs, expenses and revenues generated to LCH SA. ddrumheller on DSK120RN23PROD with NOTICES1 B. Clearing Agency’s Statement on Burden on Competition Section 17A(b)(3)(I) of the Act 13 requires that the rules of a clearing agency not impose any burden on competition not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.14 LCH SA does not believe that the proposed rule change would impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. LCH SA is proposing to extend to CDSClear members the Fee Grid already applicable to the clearing members of LCH SA Non-U.S. Business. This proposed change will also apply equally to all CDSClear Clearing Members and is not expected to have any potential disparate impact on any Clearing Members. LCH SA also believes the adoption of the Fee Grid by CDSClear will not adversely affect the ability of such Clearing Members or other market participants generally to engage in cleared transactions or to access LCH SA’s clearing services. LCH SA is further enhancing its triparty collateral solution with Euroclear Bank and Euroclear France and aligning the triparty collateral service offering across LCH SA clearing services following the extension of the triparty collateral solution. The triparty collateral solution provides Clearing Members additional options and greater operational efficiency for posting collateral to cover margin requirements and thus, to access LCH SA’s clearing services.

text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in 
Item IV below. LCH SA has prepared summaries, set forth in sections A, 
B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such statements.

A. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis 
for, the Proposed Rule Change

1. Purpose
    The purpose of the Proposed Rule Change is for LCH SA to extend to 
CDSClear the Fee Grid currently applicable to the Triparty Collateral 
mechanism for the Non-U.S. Business.
    As part of the process to further enhance its triparty collateral 
solution with Euroclear Bank and Euroclear France \7\ and to align the 
triparty collateral service offering across LCH SA clearing services, 
to include CDSClear, LCH SA is proposing to adopt the Fee Grid upon 
filing with the SEC, following the Commission's order approving the 
proposed rule change relating to the Triparty Collateral mechanism.\8\

Proposed Rule Change Relating to Triparty Collateral Mechanism; 
Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-98009 (July 27, 2023); 88 FR 
50923 (August 2, 2023) (File No. SR-LCH SA-2023-004).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    LCH SA is proposing to adopt for CDSClear the following triparty 
fees currently applicable to the LCH SA Non-U.S. Business:

--For Government Securities from Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, 
Germany, Italy, Netherlands, Portugal and Spain, the applicable fee is 
9.5bps;
--For Supranational entities and Agencies, the applicable fee is 
11.5bps

    LCH SA will reflect this change by amending the footnote applicable 
to triparty collateral fees in the Fee Grid to state the triparty 
collateral fees are also applicable to CDSClear. Specifically, the 
amended footnote will state: ``** Effective 1 April 2023 for 
EquityClear, CommodityClear, RepoClear and [euro]GCPlus (House & 
Clients activities). Effective 23 August 2023 for CDSClear.'' The 
applicable Fee Grid has been annexed as Exhibit 5 [sic].
    No amendments to the Rule Book or Procedures are required for these 
changes to become effective.
2. Statutory Basis
    LCH SA believes that the Proposed Rule Change is consistent with 
the requirements of section 17A of the Act \9\ and the regulations 
thereunder. section 17A(b)(3)(D) of the Act \10\ requires that the 
rules of a clearing agency provide for the equitable allocation of 
reasonable dues, fees, and other charges among Clearing Members and 
market participants by ensuring that Clearing Members and clients pay 
reasonable fees and dues for the services provided by LCH SA, within 
the meaning of section 17A(b)(3)(D) of the Act.

    \10\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(D)(3).

    The wider offering of eligible collateral through the triparty 
collateral solution with the relevant proposed applicable fees will 
provide greater collateral optimization opportunities for LCH SA 
Clearing Members. In addition, the spread between the triparty 
collateral solution and the bilateral Full Transfer of Title deposit 
option will be 1.5bps and is consistent with the Euroclear Triparty 
service paid by Clearing Members.\11\ LCH SA does not anticipate the 
Proposed Rule Change to result in any material increase in Clearing 
Members fees and expenses or result in any material changes to CDSClear 
revenue.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For these reasons, LCH SA believes that the Proposed Rule Change is

[[Page 62417]]

consistent with the requirements of section 17A of the Act \12\ and the 
regulations thereunder. Specifically, LCH SA believes the adoption of 
the Fee Grid is reasonable and has been set up at an appropriate level 
given the costs, expenses and revenues generated to LCH SA.

    \12\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

B. Clearing Agency's Statement on Burden on Competition

    Section 17A(b)(3)(I) of the Act \13\ requires that the rules of a 
clearing agency not impose any burden on competition not necessary or 
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.\14\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \13\ 15 U.S.C. 78q-1(b)(3)(I).
    \14\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    LCH SA does not believe that the proposed rule change would impose 
any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate in 
furtherance of the purposes of the Act.
    LCH SA is proposing to extend to CDSClear members the Fee Grid 
already applicable to the clearing members of LCH SA Non-U.S. Business. 
This proposed change will also apply equally to all CDSClear Clearing 
Members and is not expected to have any potential disparate impact on 
any Clearing Members.
    LCH SA also believes the adoption of the Fee Grid by CDSClear will 
not adversely affect the ability of such Clearing Members or other 
market participants generally to engage in cleared transactions or to 
access LCH SA's clearing services. LCH SA is further enhancing its 
triparty collateral solution with Euroclear Bank and Euroclear France 
and aligning the triparty collateral service offering across LCH SA 
clearing services following the extension of the triparty collateral 
solution. The triparty collateral solution provides Clearing Members 
additional options and greater operational efficiency for posting 
collateral to cover margin requirements and thus, to access LCH SA's 
clearing services.
    Finally, LCH SA believes that the adoption of the Fee Grid is 
appropriate given the costs and expenses to LCH SA.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 
Commission Action

    Pursuant to section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act, and Rule 19b-
4(f)(2) thereunder, the proposed rule change is filed for immediate 
effectiveness because the proposed rule establishes or changes a fee or 
other charge imposed by LCH SA on its Clearing Members, within the 
meaning of Rule 19b-4(f)(2). At any time within 60 days of the filing 
of the proposed rule change, the Commission summarily may temporarily 
suspend such rule change if it appears to the Commission that such 
action is necessary or appropriate in the public interest, for the 
protection of investors, or otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of 
the Act.
    The proposal shall not take effect until all regulatory actions 
required with respect to the proposal are completed.
