Establishing the Form and Manner with which Security-Based Swap Data Repositories Must Make Security-Based Swap Data Available to the Commission
The Securities and Exchange Commission (``SEC'' or ``Commission'') is publishing for comment a proposed amendment to specify the form and manner with which security-based swap data repositories (``SDRs'') will be required to make security-based swap (``SBS'') data available to the Commission under Exchange Act Rule 13n- 4(b)(5). The Commission is proposing to require SDRs to make these data available according to schemas that will be published on the Commission's Web site and that will reference the international industry standards Financial products Markup Language (``FpML'') and Financial Information eXchange Markup Language (``FIXML'').
Disclosure of Payments by Resource Extraction Issuers
We are proposing Rule 13q-1 and an amendment to Form SD to implement Section 1504 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act relating to disclosure of payments by resource extraction issuers. Rule 13q-1 was initially adopted by the Commission on August 22, 2012, but it was subsequently vacated by the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Section 1504 of the Dodd- Frank Act added Section 13(q) to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which directs the Commission to issue rules requiring resource extraction issuers to include in an annual report information relating to any payment made by the issuer, a subsidiary of the issuer, or an entity under the control of the issuer, to a foreign government or the Federal Government for the purpose of the commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals. Section 13(q) requires a resource extraction issuer to provide information about the type and total amount of such payments made for each project related to the commercial development of oil, natural gas, or minerals, and the type and total amount of payments made to each government. In addition, Section 13(q) requires a resource extraction issuer to provide information about those payments in an interactive data format.
