The regulations require government securities broker/dealers to make and keep certain records concerning government securities activities, to submit financial reports, and make certain disclosures to investors. The regulations also require depository institutions to keep certain records of non-fiduciary custodial holdings of government securities. The regulations and associated collections are fundamental to customer protection and financial responsibility.

The 104 hour annual burden increase is due to an increase in the estimated number of reporting entities that may be required to submit reports under the December 2014 final rule amendments to Treasury's large position reporting rules. Treasury estimates an increase from 12 to 20 respondents and an increase from 8 to 10 hours per respondent. Because the final rule amendments would also require more detailed information to be provided by entities that file reports, Treasury is increasing the annual reporting burden by 104 hours.
