Abstract: The information is needed to ensure that the Commission and other regulators have access to complete data concerning swaps, as required by the Commodity Exchange Act as amended by the Dodd-Frank Act. The information is for use by government entities to provide oversight and supervision and to ensure compliance with statutes and regulations relating to swaps. Respondents are entities or persons who trade swaps, clear swaps, provide a swap execution platform, or collect swap data repository. The regulations establish swap reporting and recordkeeping requirements for swap execution facilities (“SEFs”), designated contract markets (“DCMs”), swap data repositories (“SDRs”), derivatives clearing organizations (“DCOs”), swap dealers (“SDs”), major swap participants (“MSPs”), and non-SD/MSP/DCO counterparties. The Commission’s regulations in part 45 require SEFs, DCMs, and reporting counterparties to report swap data to SDRs. The SDRs provide this data to the Commission directly. The Commission uses swap data in connection with fulfilling its regulatory duties. The new information collection under this control number relates specifically to the Commission’s changes to Part 39 of its regulations to establish a regulatory framework for the clearing of swaps by exempt derivatives clearing organizations (“DCOs”), pursuant to Section 5b(h) of the CEA (7 U.S.C. 7a-1(h)). Although Part 45 applies to a number of registered entities and market participants, including registered DCOs, the proposed changes would affect only the reporting burden for exempt DCOs. The information collection is necessary to fulfill the Commission’s statutory and regulatory mandates, including systemic risk mitigation, market monitoring, and market abuse prevention. The information is used to provide oversight and supervision and to ensure compliance with statutes and regulations relating to swaps. The Commission’s regulations in part 45 require SEFs, DCMs, and reporting counterparties to report swap data to SDRs. The SDRs provide this data to the Commission directly. The Commission uses swap data in connection with fulfilling its regulatory duties.
