141 17 CFR 240.17Ad–22(e)(3). 

142 15 U.S.C. 78q–1(b)(3)(I). 143 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12). 

managing legal, credit, liquidity, 

operational, general business, 

investment, custody, and other risks 

that arise in or are borne by OCC 

consistent with Rule 17Ad–22(e)(3).141

Finally, OCC notes that the proposed 

rule change is not inconsistent with the 

existing rules of OCC, including any 

other rules proposed to be amended. 

(B) Clearing Agency’s Statement on 

Burden on Competition 

Section 17A(b)(3)(I) of the Act 142

requires that the rules of a clearing 

agency not impose any burden on 

competition not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act. OCC does not 

believe that the proposed rule change 

would impact or impose any burden on 

competition. The proposed rule change 

addresses the charters used in OCC’s 

governance structure, and all Clearing 

Members would be equally subject to 

these governance arrangements. 

Consequently, the amended charters 

would not provide any Clearing Member 

with a competitive advantage over any 

other Clearing Member. Further, the 

proposed rule change would not affect 

Clearing Member’s access to OCC’s 

services or impose any direct burdens 

on Clearing Members. Accordingly, the 

proposed rule change would not 

unfairly inhibit access to OCC’s services 

or disadvantage or favor any particular 

user in relationship to another user. 

For the foregoing reasons, OCC 

believes that the proposed rule change 

is in the public interest, would be 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act applicable to clearing agencies, and 

would not impact or impose a burden 

on competition. 

(C) Clearing Agency’s Statement on 

Comments on the Proposed Rule 

Change Received From Members, 

Participants or Others 

Written comments on the proposed 

rule change were not and are not 

intended to be solicited with respect to 

the proposed rule change and none have 

been received. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Within 45 days of the date of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register or within such longer period 

up to 90 days (i) as the Commission may 

designate if it finds such longer period 

to be appropriate and publishes its 

reasons for so finding or (ii) as to which 

the self-regulatory organization 

consents, the Commission will: 

(A) By order approve or disapprove 

the proposed rule change, or 

(B) institute proceedings to determine 

whether the proposed rule change 

should be disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments
