Abstract: Regulation SCI would update and formalize a regulatory framework for ensuring that the U.S. securities trading markets develop and maintain systems with adequate capacity, integrity, resiliency, availability, and security, and reinforce the requirement that such systems operate in compliance with relevant laws and rules. Regulation SCI is intended to advance the goals of the national market system by enhancing the capacity, integrity, resiliency, availability, and security of the automated systems of entities important to the functioning of the U.S. securities markets, and reinforce the requirement that such systems operate in compliance with the Exchange Act and relevant rules. The Commission recently proposed to update the national market system for the collection, consolidation, and dissemination of information with respect to quotations for and transactions in national market system (“NMS”) stocks. Specifically, the Proposal would expand the content of the information with respect to quotations for and transactions in NMS stocks that must be made available under Regulation NMS and introduce a decentralized consolidation model whereby “competing consolidators” would assume responsibility for the collection, consolidation, and dissemination functions currently performed by the exclusive Securities Information Processors (“SIPs”). Among other things, the Proposal would expand the definition of “SCI entity” to include competing consolidators, so that all competing consolidators would be subject to Regulation SCI.
