30 Day Notice

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 15 / Tuesday, January 26, 2021 / Notices
obsolete rule text would promote clarity
to the Fee Schedule and reduce
confusion to ETP Holders as to which
fees and credits are applicable to their
trading activity on the Exchange. The
Exchange believes it is reasonable to
delete the obsolete fees and credits from
the Fee Schedule and thereby,
streamline the Fee Schedule, to promote
clarity and reduce confusion as to the
applicability of fees and credits that ETP
Holders would be subject to. The
Exchange believes deleting obsolete fees
and credits would also simplify the Fee
Schedule.
The Exchange believes that deleting
obsolete fees and credits from the Fee
Schedule is equitable and not unfairly
discriminatory because the resulting
streamlined Fee Schedule would
continue to apply to ETP Holders as it
does currently because the Exchange is
not adopting any new fees or credits or
removing any current fees or credits
from the Fee Schedule that impact ETP
Holders. All ETP Holders would
continue to be subject to the same fees
and credits that currently apply to them.
For the foregoing reasons, the
Exchange believes that the proposal is
consistent with the Act.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Burden on Competition
In accordance with Section 6(b)(8) of
the Act,12 the Exchange believes that the
proposed rule change would not impose
any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act.
Intramarket Competition. The
Exchange’s proposal to delete obsolete
fees and credits from the Fee Schedule
will not place any undue burden on
intramarket competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act because all
ETP Holders would continue to be
subject to the same fees and credits that
currently apply to them. To the extent
the proposed rule change places a
burden on competition, any such
burden would be outweighed by the fact
that a streamlined Fee Schedule would
promote clarity and reduce confusion
with respect to the fees and credits that
ETP Holders would be subject to.
Intermarket Competition. The
Exchange believes the proposed rule
change does not impose any burden on
intermarket competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance
of the purposes of the Act. The
Exchange operates in a highly
competitive market in which market
participants can readily choose to send
their orders to other exchanges and off12 15

exchange venues if they deem fee levels
at those other venues to be more
favorable. Market share statistics
provide ample evidence that price
competition between exchanges is
fierce, with liquidity and market share
moving freely from one execution venue
to another in reaction to pricing
changes.
C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s
Statement on Comments on the
Proposed Rule Change Received From
Members, Participants, or Others
No written comments were solicited
or received with respect to the proposed
rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the
Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
The foregoing rule change is effective
upon filing pursuant to Section
19(b)(3)(A) 13 of the Act and
subparagraph (f)(2) of Rule 19b–4 14
thereunder, because it establishes a due,
fee, or other charge imposed by the
Exchange.
At any time within 60 days of the
filing of such proposed rule change, the
Commission summarily may
temporarily suspend such rule change if
it appears to the Commission that such
action is necessary or appropriate in the
public interest, for the protection of
investors, or otherwise in furtherance of
the purposes of the Act. If the
Commission takes such action, the
Commission shall institute proceedings
under Section 19(b)(2)(B) 15 of the Act to
determine whether the proposed rule
change should be approved or
disapproved.
IV. Solicitation of Comments
Interested persons are invited to
submit written data, views, and
arguments concerning the foregoing,
including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act.
Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 15 / Tuesday, January 26, 2021 / Notices

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant
to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(‘‘Paperwork Reduction Act’’) (44 U.S.C.
3501–3520), the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the
‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the
previously approved collection of
information discussed below.
Rule 30b1–8 under the Act [17 CFR
270.30b1–8], entitled ‘‘Current Report
for Money Market Funds,’’ provides that
every registered open-end management
investment company, or series thereof,
that is regulated as a money market fund
under rule 2a–7 [17 CFR 270.2a–7], that
experiences any of the events specified
on Form N–CR [17 CFR 274.222], must
file with the Commission a current
report on Form N–CR within the time
period specified in that form. The
information collection requirements for
rule 30b1–8 and Form N–CR are
designed to assist Commission staff in
its oversight of money market funds and
its ability to respond to market events.
It also provides investors with better
and timelier disclosure of potentially
important events. Finally, the
Commission is able to use the
information provided on Form N–CR in
its regulatory, disclosure review,
inspection, and policymaking roles. The
rule imposes a burden per report of
approximately 8.5 hours and $1018.5, so
that the total annual burden for the
estimated 6 reports filed per year on
Form N–CR is 51 hours and $19,839.
The estimate of average burden hours
is made solely for the purposes of the
Paperwork Reduction Act. The estimate
is based on communications with
industry representatives, and is not
derived from a comprehensive or even
a representative survey or study.
The collection of information on Form
N–CR is mandatory for any fund that
holds itself out as a money market fund
in reliance on rule 2a–7. Responses will
not be kept confidential. 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 OMB control number.
The public may view the background
documentation for this information
collection at the following website,
www.reginfo.gov. Comments should be
directed to: (i) Desk Officer for the
Securities and Exchange Commission,
Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Office of Management and
