1Rule 17a–5(c) requires a broker or dealer to

(OMB Control Number 3235–0199). 

SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[SEC File No. 270–155, OMB Control No. 

3235–0123] 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request; Extension: Rule 

17a–5 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 

100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 

20549–2736 

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(‘‘OMB’’) a request for extension of the 

previously approved collection of 

information discussed below. 

Rule 17a–5 (17 CFR 240.17a–5) under 

the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

U.S.C. 78a et seq.) is the basic financial 

reporting rule for brokers and dealers.1

The rule requires the filing of Form X– 

17A–5, the Financial and Operational 

Combined Uniform Single Report 

(‘‘FOCUS Report’’), which was the result 

of years of study and comments by 

representatives of the securities industry 

through advisory committees and 

through the normal rule proposal 

methods. The FOCUS Report was 

designed to eliminate the overlapping 

regulatory reports required by various 

self-regulatory organizations and the 

Commission and to reduce reporting 

burdens as much as possible. The rule 

also requires the filing of annual reports, 

which include a financial report and a 

compliance or exemption report as well 

as reports of an independent public 

accountant covering the financial report 

and the compliance or exemption 

report. In addition, the rule requires a 

broker-dealer that computes certain 

capital charges in accordance with 

Appendix E to Exchange Act Rule 15c3– 

1 (17 CFR 240.15c3–1e) to file 

additional monthly or quarterly reports 

and a supplemental report on 

management controls concurrently with 

its annual reports. 

The Commission estimates that the 

total hour burden under Rule 17a–5 is 

approximately 397,467 hours per year, 

and the total cost burden is 

approximately $31,295,048 per year. 

Since the last approval of this 

information collection, the estimated 

total burden hours per year has 

increased due to more respondents 

filing monthly reports rather than 

quarterly reports under Rule 17a–5; the 

estimated total cost burden per year has 

decreased due to more filings being 

submitted electronically. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

under the PRA unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number. 

The public may view background 

documentation for this information 

collection at the following website: 

www.reginfo.gov. Find this particular 

information collection by selecting 

‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open 

for Public Comments’’ or by using the 

search function. Written comments and 

recommendations for the proposed 

information collection should be sent by 

November 15, 2023 to (i) 

www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain

Information Officer, Securities and 

Exchange Commission, c/o John
