IV. Commission’s Findings and Order 

Granting Accelerated Approval of 

Proposed Rule Change 

Section 19(b) of the Act 5 directs the 

Commission to approve a proposed rule 

change of a self-regulatory organization 

if it finds that such proposed rule 

change is consistent with the 

requirements of the Act and the rules 

and regulations thereunder applicable to 

such organization. The Commission 

finds that the proposed rule change is 

consistent with the requirements of the 

Act, in particular the requirements of 

Section 17A of the Act,6 and the rules 

and regulations thereunder applicable to 

ICE Clear Europe. Specifically, the 

Commission finds that the proposed 

rule change is consistent with Section 

17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act,7 which requires, 

among other things, that the rules of a 

registered clearing agency be designed 

to promote the prompt and accurate 

clearance and settlement of derivative 

agreements, contracts, and transactions 

because it will contribute to ICE Clear 

Europe ensuring settlement finality of 

certain transfer, clearing, and settlement 

orders under the Settlement Finality 

Legislation. 

ICE Clear Europe has requested that 

the Commission approve the proposed 

rule change on an accelerated basis for 

good cause shown. The Commission 

finds good cause for accelerating 

approval because these changes are 

required pursuant to the Settlement 

Finality Legislation. Specifically, these 

changes reflect modifications to ICE 

Clear Europe’s clearing and payment 

systems that have been proposed 

following designation by U.K. 

authorities as a ‘‘designated system’’ for 

purposes of such legislation; the 

proposed changes follow various 

meetings and discussions with the 

relevant U.K. authorities. If ICE Clear 

Europe does not make the changes 

described in this rule proposal, ICE 

Clear Europe may be in contravention of 

home country and home region 

legislation. 

V. Conclusion 

It is therefore ordered pursuant to 

Section 19(b)(2) of the Act that the 

proposed rule change (SR–ICEEU–2012– 

03) be, and hereby is, approved on an 

accelerated basis. 

For the Commission by the Division of 

Trading and Markets, pursuant to delegated 

authority.8
