Section 17(a)(1) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") provides that broker-dealers
must make and keep records, furnish copies of the records, and make
and disseminate reports as the Securities and Exchange Commission
("Commission"), by rule, prescribes. Section 17(e)(1)(A) of the
Exchange Act requires every broker-dealer registered with the
Commission to annually file with the Commission: a balance sheet
and income statement "certified by an independent public accounting
firm, or by a registered public accounting firm if the firm is
required to be registered under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002" and
such other financial statements (which shall, as the Commission
specifies, be certified) and information concerning its financial
condition as the Commission, by rule, may prescribe. A registered
public accounting firm means a public accounting firm registered
with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB").
Section 17(e)(2) provides that the Commission, by rule, may
prescribe the form and content of the financial statements and the
accounting principles and standards used in their preparation.
Partial Revision-- the Commission is revising this collection of
information in connection with a 2019 rulemaking that amended
several Commission rules. Although the amendments were adopted in
2019, they are not required to be complied with until October 6,
2021. The amendments, which established recordkeeping requirements
for broker-dealers' security-based swap activities, resulted in new
estimates to this collection of information. The proposed revisions
were submitted to OMB in 2016 (see ICR Ref. No. 201606-3235-015),
and this submission is for the final revisions.
