Abstract: Regulation S-ID, and the information collection it requires, is designed to better protect consumers from the risks of identity theft. The regulation requires entities that are subject to the Commission's jurisdiction to address identity theft in two ways. First, the proposed rules and guidelines would require financial institutions and creditors to develop and implement a written identity theft prevention program designed to detect, prevent, and mitigate identity theft in connection with certain existing accounts or the opening of new accounts. Second, the proposed rules would establish special requirements for any credit and debit card issuers that are subject to the Commissions' jurisdiction, to assess the validity of notifications of changes of address under certain circumstances.

Short Statement: This request transfers a PRA burden from another agency to the SEC. The SEC is issuing proposed rules and guidelines to implement new statutory provisions enacted by Title X of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. These provisions transfer identity theft and card issuer rulemaking responsibility and enforcement authority to the SEC with respect to entities under its jurisdiction. The proposed rules and guidelines are substantially similar to those already adopted jointly by several agencies in 2007. SEC-regulated entities currently incur these burdens and will continue to do so regardless of whether the SEC adopts proposed Regulation S-ID.
