Abstract:
Until October 1, 2003, 31 CFR 1023.410(a) required a broker or dealer in securities to make a record of certain information. Until October 1, 2008, a broker or dealer in securities was required to maintain all such records, as well as a list containing the names, addresses, and account or credit line numbers of those persons from whom it had been unable to secure the required information despite reasonable efforts. The customer identification program requirement for brokers or dealers in securities has effectively superseded these requirements. 31 CFR 1023.410(b) requires every broker or dealer in securities to retain an original or a copy of the following: (1) each document granting signature or trading authority over each customer’s account; (2) a record of each remittance or transfer of funds, currency, checks, other monetary instruments, investment securities, or credit, of more than $10,000 to a person, account, or place outside the United States; (3) a record of each receipt of currency, other monetary instruments, investment securities, or checks, and of each transfer of funds or credit, of more than $10,000 on any one occasion, not through a domestic financial institution, from any person, account, or place outside the United States; and (4) each record described in paragraphs (1), (2), (3), (5), (6), (7), (8), and (9) of 17 CFR 240.17a-3(a), covering records to be made by certain exchange members, brokers and dealers as identified in 17 CFR 240.17a-3.

Short Statement:
The estimated total annual burden hours decreased by 466,000 hours from 830,000 hours in 2017 to 364,000 hours in 2020, although the annual hourly burden estimate for these recordkeeping requirements remained the same as in 2017. The reduction is solely a result of a decrease in the estimated number of brokers or dealers in securities from 8,300 in 2017 to 3,640 in 2020.
