In order to monitor compliance with financial standards including capital and margin for commodity intermediaries including futures commission merchants, retail forex dealers, swap dealers, and introducing brokers, the Commission has required such intermediaries as respondents to maintain certain records and file financial and other notices and reports with the Commission, or in lieu thereof, seek a comparability determination if available. The information is used to monitor financial condition of the intermediaries at regular intervals and be responsive to changes in such registrants' condition and customer protection.

The aggregate burden actually has decreased for this renewal. The estimated number of responses per year for certain interval reports, as well as the estimated number of respondents, has been updated, based on the most currently available estimates of the number of registered entities to which each reporting or recordkeeping regulatory matter pertains. As a result of fewer respondents, the overall aggregate burden for the collection has decreased.
