Abstract:
Rule of Practice 194 provides a process for a registered security-based swap dealer or major security-based swap participant to make an application to the Commission for an order permitting an associated person that is a natural person who is subject to a statutory disqualification to effect or be involved in effecting security-based swaps on behalf of the security-based swap dealer or major security-based swap participant.
Emergency Justfication:
Due to an Internal Sharepoint Site Tracking filter error, the existing extension approval date of April 30, 2022 for this ICR will be missed. Therefore the SEC is seeking Emergency Extension Consideration. The Securities and Exchange Commission (“Commission”) is requesting emergency consideration of one collection of information pursuant to 44 U.S.C. 3507(j) as implemented at 5 CFR 1320.13. The collection of information is in 3235-0733, titled Rule of Practice 194. The collection of information in Rule of Practice Rule 194 is part of the regulatory structure that permits the Commission to regulate security-based swap dealers and major security-based swap participants (collectively, “SBS Entities”). Specifically, Rule of Practice 194 sets forth the process for an SBS Entity to make an application to the Commission for an order permitting an associated person who is subject to a statutory disqualification to effect or be involved in effecting security-based swaps on behalf of the SBS Entity. The information collected in an application under Rule of Practice 194 is necessary for the Commission to determine whether certain persons should be permitted to effect transactions in security-based swaps. It also assists the Commission with its examination function by identifying individuals that are subject to a statutory disqualification. The emergency extension would prevent the disruption of normal collection efforts pursuant to Rule 194. Emergency approval would allow the Commission to continue to evaluate and monitor the activities of SBS Entities, and would also prevent the expiration of the current approval.
