Short Statement: The number of firms registered with the Commission as OTC derivatives dealers has changed from four firms to three firms. The staff now expects that three more firms will register with the Commission as an OTC derivatives dealer within the next three years. Formerly, the staff estimated that one more firm would register as an OTC derivatives dealer. Therefore, the total number of respondents has changed from five to six. As a result, the total annual hour reporting burden and the annual industry-wide reporting cost have increased.
