As required by Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act, the new section 15F(h) of the Exchange Act will establish business
conduct standards for security-based swap ("SBS") dealers and major security-based swap participants in their
dealings with counterparties, including special entities. The proposed rules also establish regulations for the chief
compliance officer functions within an SBS dealer or major SBS participant. The Commission has also included
certain other business conduct requirements for SBS dealers that we believe further the principles that underlie the
Dodd-Frank Act.
The estimated annual hour burden has decreased from 554,823 hours to 486,535 hours and the estimated annual cost burden has decreased from $2,138,000 to $1,812,800, a decrease of approximately 68,288 hours and $325,200 respectively. The primary reason for the reduction in burdens is the reduction in the estimated number of respondents (e.g., the estimated number of SBS Entities decreased from 55 to 44). Decreases in the estimates of the number of certain entities and transactions have also contributed to the reduction in burdens.
