81968 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 196 / Wednesday, October 9, 2024 / Notices 

12For purposes only of waiving the 30-day 

operative delay, the Commission has considered the 

proposed rule’s impact on efficiency, competition, 

and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C. 78c(f). 

13 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2)(B). 14 17 CFR 200.30–3(a)(12), (59). 

provide Exchange with such additional 

time. As such, the Commission believes 

that waiver of the operative delay is 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest 

because it would ensure that the 

Exchange has extra time to properly 

deploy these new aggregate credit risk 

functionalities, which is to the benefit of 

market participants that will eventually 

utilize the Aggregate Credit Risk Checks. 

Accordingly, the Commission hereby 

waives the 30-day operative delay and 

designates the proposal operative upon 

filing.12

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of this proposed rule change, the 

Commission summarily may 

temporarily suspend such rule change if 

it appears to the Commission that such 

action is necessary or appropriate in the 

public interest, for the protection of 

investors, or otherwise in furtherance of 

the purposes of the Act. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

under Section 19(b)(2)(B) 13 of the Act to 

determine whether the proposed rule 

change should be approved or 

disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views, and

change is consistent with the Act.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; Cboe

and Immediate Effectiveness of a 

Proposed Rule Change To Extend the 

Implementation Date of Functionality 

That Will Provide Members and 

Clearing Members With the Option To 

Utilize Additional Credit Risk Settings 

Under Interpretation and Policy .03 of 

Rule 11.10 (‘‘Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks’’) 

October 3, 2024. 

Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’),1 and Rule 19b–4 thereunder,2

notice is hereby given that on 

September 26, 2024, Cboe EDGA 

Exchange, Inc. (the ‘‘Exchange’’ or 

‘‘EDGA’’) filed with the Securities and 

Exchange Commission (‘‘SEC’’ or 

‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule 

change as described in Items I and II 

below, which Items have been prepared 

by the Exchange. The Commission is 

publishing this notice to solicit 

comments on the proposed rule change 

from interested persons. 

I. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Terms of Substance of 

the Proposed Rule Change 

Cboe EDGA Exchange, Inc. (the 

‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘EDGA’’) proposes to 

extend the implementation date of 

functionality that will provide Members 

and Clearing Members with the option 

to utilize additional credit risk settings 

under Interpretation and Policy .03 or 

Rule 11.10 (‘‘Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks’’). 

The text of the proposed rule change 

is also available on the Exchange’s 

website (http://markets.cboe.com/us/ 

equities/regulation/rule_filings/edga/), 

at the Exchange’s Office of the 

Secretary, and at the Commission’s 

Public Reference Room. 

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

In its filing with the Commission, the 

Exchange included statements 

concerning the purpose of and basis for 

the proposed rule change and discussed 

any comments it received on the 

proposed rule change. The text of these 

statements may be examined at the 

places specified in Item IV below. The 

Exchange has prepared summaries, set 

forth in sections A, B, and C below, of 

the most significant aspects of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

The Exchange is filing this proposal to 

extend the implementation date of 

functionality providing Members and 

Clearing Members with the option to 

utilize additional Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks. The functionality relating to 

these additional risk settings was 

submitted by the Exchange on an 

immediately effective basis on May 29, 

2024.3

The Aggregate Credit Risk Checks 

offered under Interpretation and Policy 

.03 or Rule 11.10, provide Members and 

Clearing Members with additional, 

optional credit risk settings, at the 

Market Participant Identifier (‘‘MPID’’) 

level and/or to a subset of orders 

identified within the MPID level (the 

‘‘risk group identifier’’ level) that 

authorizes the Exchange to take 

automated action if a designated limit 

for a Member is breached. These risk 

settings will provide Members and 

Clearing Members with enhanced 

abilities to manage their risk with 

respect to orders on the Exchange. 

Specifically, the Exchange intends to 

offer two aggregate credit risk settings as 

follows: 

• The ‘‘Aggregate Gross Credit 

Exposure Limit’’, which refers to a preestablished maximum daily dollar 

amount for purchases and sales across 

all symbols, where both purchases and 

sales are counted as positive values. For 

purposes of calculating the Aggregate 

Gross Credit Exposure Limit, both 

executed and open orders are included; 

and 

• The ‘‘Aggregate Net Credit Exposure 

Limit’’, which refers to a pre-established 

maximum daily dollar amount for 

purchases and sales across all symbols, 

where purchases are counted as positive 

values and sales are counted as negative 

values. For purposes of calculating the 

Aggregate Net Credit Exposure Limit, 

both executed and open orders are 

included. 

The Exchange initially proposed to 

implement the Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks by October 31, 2024. While this 

date is not included in the relevant rule 

text codifying the Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks, the Exchange separately notates 

in its rulebook when it plans to 

implement new functionality that was 

either immediately effective upon rule 

filing, or approved by the SEC. 

Estimated implementation dates are 

sometimes necessary so because 

implementing new functionality 

sometimes requires additional time to 

develop, test, and deploy, and such 

timeline may not always coincide with 

the statutory rule filing process. As 

such, the Exchange provides estimated 

implementation dates to make Members 

aware that certain rule text is subject to 

amendment post implementation of the 

new functionality, as well as to provide 

Members with sufficient notice so that 

they can make any necessary 

technological or operational 

adjustments to their systems (if 

applicable). However, more time is 

needed to design, test, and implement 

the Aggregate Credit Risk Checks. 

Accordingly, the Exchange proposes to 

implement the Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks on or after November 22, 2024. 

The Exchange would issue a Trade Desk 

Notice announcing the exact 

implementation date to Users. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes the proposed 

rule change is consistent with the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

‘‘Act’’), in general, and furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b) of the Act 4 in 

particular, in that it is designed to 

promote just and equitable principles of 

trade, to remove impediments to and 

perfect the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system, and, in general to protect 

investors and the public interest. The 

Exchange’s proposal to delay the 

implementation of Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks to on or after November 22, 

2024, is consistent with the Act and 

protection of investors and general 

public because it will permit the 

Exchange additional time to ensure the 

Exchange can properly develop, test, 

and deploy the Aggregate Credit Risk 

Checks. Moreover, the Aggregate Credit 

Risk Checks themselves were previously
