Rule 17f-2(c) allows persons required
to be fingerprinted pursuant to Section 17(f)(2) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 to submit their fingerprints through a
registered securities exchange or a national securities association
in accordance with a plan submitted to and approved by the
Commission.
The total reporting burden
hours has decreased from 76,500 to 72,000 due to an average annual
decrease in the number of fingerprint sets submitted by FINRA to
the FBI over the past three years. The total costs burden has
increased from $9,250,100 to $9,987,300 due to the increased cost
of processing hard copy fingerprint cards submitted by FINRA to the
FBI over the past three years.
