Administrative Declaration of an Economic Injury Disaster for the State of California, 77653-77654 [2023-24902]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 217 / Monday, November 13, 2023 / Notices examination staff uses these records to evaluate for compliance with the rule. While most funds do not commonly engage in transactions covered by rule 17a–7, the Commission staff estimates that nearly all funds have adopted procedures for complying with the rule.2 Of the approximately 2,768 currently active funds, the staff estimates that virtually all have already adopted procedures for compliance with rule 17a–7. This is a one-time burden, and the staff therefore does not estimate an ongoing burden related to the policies and procedures requirement of the rule for funds.3 The staff estimates that there are approximately 110new funds that register each year, and that each of these funds adopts the relevant policies and procedures. The staff estimates that it takes approximately 4 hours to develop and adopt these policies and procedures. Therefore, the total annual burden related to developing and adopting these policies and procedures would be approximately 360 hours.4 Of the 2,768 existing funds, the staff assumes that approximately 21%, (or 582) enter into transactions affected by rule 17a–7 each year (either by the fund directly or through one of the fund’s series), and that the same percentage (21%, or 23 funds) of the estimated 110 funds that newly register each year will also enter into these transactions, for a total of 605 5 companies that are affected by the recordkeeping requirements of rule 17a–7. These funds must keep records of each of these transactions, and the board of directors must quarterly determine that all relevant transactions were made in compliance with the company’s policies and procedures. The rule generally imposes a minimal burden of collecting and storing records already generated for other purposes.6 The staff estimates that the burden related to making these records and for the board to review all khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 2 Unless stated otherwise, these estimates are based on conversations with the examination and inspections staff of the Commission and fund representatives. 3 Based on our reviews and conversations with fund representatives, we understand that funds rarely, if ever, need to make changes to these policies and procedures once adopted, and therefore we do not estimate a paperwork burden for such updates. 4 This estimate is based on the following calculations: (4 hours ×110 new funds = 440 hours); ($6,045 × 110 = $664,950. 5 These estimates are based on the following calculations: (21% = 582 / 2,768); (605 = 582 + 23). 6 Commission staff believes that rule 17a–7 does not impose any costs associated with record preservation in addition to the costs that funds already incur to comply with the record preservation requirements of rule 31a–2 under the Act. Rule 31a–2 requires companies to preserve certain records for specified periods of time. VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:12 Nov 09, 2023 Jkt 262001 transactions would be 3 hours annually for each respondent, (2 hours spent by compliance attorneys and 1 hour spent by the board of directors) 7 or 1,815 total hours each year at cost of $3,400,100.8 Based on these estimates, the staff estimates the combined total annual burden hours associated with rule 17a– 7 is 2,225 hours at a cost of $4,065,050.9 The staff also estimates that there are approximately 605 respondents and 4,840 total responses.10 The estimate of average burden hours is made solely for the purposes of the Paperwork Reduction Act, and are not derived from a comprehensive or even a representative survey or study of the costs of Commission rules. The collection of information required by rule 17a–7 is necessary to obtain the benefits of the rule. Responses will not be kept confidential. An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid control number.

[FR Doc. 2023–24954 Filed 11–9–23; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE 8011–01–P 7 The staff estimates that funds that rely on rule 17a–7 annually enter into an average of 8 rule 17a– 7 transactions each year. The staff estimates that the compliance attorneys of the companies spend approximately 15 minutes per transaction on this recordkeeping, and the board of directors spends a total of 1 hour annually in determining that all transactions made that year were done in compliance with the company’s policies and procedures. This estimate is based on the following calculations: (2 hours × $425 = $850); ($850 + $4,770 = $5,620). 8 This estimate is based on the following calculation: (3 hours × 605 companies = 1,815 hours); ($5,620 × 605 companies = $3,400,100). 9 This estimate is based on the following calculation: (440 hours + 1,815 hours = 2,255 total hours); ($664,950 + $3,400,100 = $4,065,050). 10 This estimate is based on the following calculations: 605 funds that engage in rule 17a–7 transactions × 8 transactions per year = 4,840.
