Securities and Exchange Commission
(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments
on the existing collection of information
provided for in Rule 15c1–5 (17 CFR
240.15c1–5) under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.). The Commission plans to submit
this existing collection of information to
the Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval.
Rule 15c1–5 states that any brokerdealer controlled by, controlling, or
under common control with the issuer
of a security that the broker-dealer is
trying to sell to or buy from a customer
must give the customer written
notification disclosing the control
relationship at or before completion of
the transaction. The Commission
estimates that 175 respondents provide
notifications annually under Rule 15c1–
5 and that each respondent would
spend approximately 10 hours per year
complying with the requirements of the
rule for a total burden of approximately
1,750 hours per year. There is no
retention period requirement under
Rule 15c1–5. This Rule does not involve
the collection of confidential
information.
Written comments are invited on: (a)
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
Commission, including whether the
information shall have practical utility;
(b) the accuracy of the Commission’s
estimates of the burden of the proposed
collection of information; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.

comments and suggestions submitted by
September 25, 2023.
