Notice is hereby given that pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 17g-1, Form
NRSRO and Instructions to Form
NRSRO under the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).1 The
Commission plans to submit this
existing collection of information to the
Office of Management and Budget for
extension and approval.
Rule 17g–1, Form NRSRO and the
Instructions to Form NRSRO contain
certain recordkeeping and disclosure
requirements for NRSROs. Currently,
there are 9 credit rating agencies
registered as NRSROs with the
Commission. The Commission estimates
that the total burden for respondents to
comply with Rule 17g-1 and Form
NRSRO is 4,160 hours, which includes
one-time reporting burdens for new
registration applications, registration for
additional categories of credit ratings,
withdrawals of NRSRO applications,
and withdrawals of NRSRO registration.

Extension: Rule 0–2, Form ADV–NR SEC File
No. 270–214, OMB Control No. 3235–
0240

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities
and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget a
request for extension of the previously
approved collection of information
discussed below.
The title for the collection of
information is ‘‘Rule 0–2 and Form

PO 00000

Frm 00070

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

ADV–NR under the Investment Advisers
Act of 1940.’’ Rule 0–2 and Form ADV–
NR facilitate service of process on a
non-resident investment adviser, or on a
non-resident general partner or nonresident managing agent of an
investment adviser. Form ADV–NR
designates the Secretary of the
Commission, among others, as the nonresident general partner’s or nonresident managing agent’s agent for
service of process. The collection of
information is necessary for us to obtain
appropriate consent to permit the
Commission and other parties to bring
actions against non-resident partners
and agents for violations of the federal
securities laws and to enable the
commencement of legal and/or
regulatory actions against investment
advisers that are doing business in the
United States, but are not residents. The
respondents to this information
collection would be each non-resident
general partner or non-resident
managing agent of an SEC-registered
investment adviser and each nonresident general partner or non-resident
managing agent of an exempt reporting
adviser. The Commission has estimated
that compliance with the requirement to
complete Form ADV–NR imposes a total
burden of approximately 1.0 hour for an
adviser. Based on our experience with
these filings, we estimate that we will
receive 53 Form ADV–NR filings
annually. Based on the 1.0 hour per
respondent estimate, the Commission
staff estimates a total annual burden of
53 hours for this collection of
information.
Rule 0–2 and Form ADV–NR do not
require recordkeeping or records
retention. The collection of information
requirements under the rule and form is
mandatory. The information collected
pursuant to Rule 0–2 and Form ADV–
NR is a filing with the Commission.
This filing is not kept confidential and
must be preserved until at least three
years after termination of the enterprise.
An agency may not conduct or sponsor,
and a person is not required to respond
to, a collection of information unless it
displays a currently valid control
number.

collection at the following website:

information collection by selecting

information collection should be sent
