Rule 17f-1(c) requires reporting
institutions to report, lost, stolen, missing, or counterfeit
securities to a central data base. Form X-17F-1A facilitates the
accurate reporting and precise and immediate data entry into the
computerized database. Exchanges, securities associations and the
members, broker-dealers, transfer agents, and clearing agencies and
their participants, FDIC banks, and Federal Reserve member banks
must comply with the rule.
The number of institutions that
submitted reports has decreased. The previous reports assumed every
reporting institution submitted reports. New data has shown that
only 115 institutions submitted reports on average. The Commission
is increasing the total burden hour estimate due to the change in
vendor operating the Program. Accenture Federal Services LLC
(“Accenture”) will begin operating the Program on January 1, 2025.
To establish connectivity with Accenture’s platform, 50 reporting
institutions will incur a onetime hourly burden and an annual
burden to maintain connectivity.
