From Its Listed Companies Publicly 

Available

of the most significant parts of such 

statements. 

A. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and the 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

1. Purpose 

Pursuant to the Exchange’s role as a 

listing venue, NYSE receives certain 

information from listed companies. This 

information may include action items 

such as stock splits, new listings, spinoffs, suspensions and delistings, name 

or trading symbol changes, and 

information about mergers and 

acquisitions, among other data. NYSE 

currently publishes this information on 

its website and makes it publicly 

available to investors and market 

participants.4 NYSE also receives from 

listed companies certain information 

related to dividends which NYSE also 

currently publishes on its website and 

makes publicly available to investors 

and market participants.5 Both data sets 

are currently published on the NYSE’s 

website prior to, or at approximately the 

same time as, that information is sent to 

NYSE market data systems, which 

ultimately sends the information to the 

NYSE’s market data subscribers 

throughout the trading day.6

The purpose of this proposed rule 

change is to describe an enhancement to 

how NYSE would publicly disseminate 

information received by the Exchange in 

its role as a listing venue. More 

specifically, in addition to the two 

places the NYSE currently publishes the 

information described above, NYSE 

proposes to contemporaneously publish 

a file that contains information received 

by the Exchange in its role as a listing 

venue and any new information it may 

receive in the future in its role as a 

listing venue in another format on a 

separate portion of its website.7 The 

proposed new file would be available to 

all market participants and would serve 

as the sole source of this information for 

NYSE market data systems. The 

proposed change would ensure that 

NYSE market data systems would only 

be able to access information NYSE 

receives in its role as a listing venue 

through publicly-available sources at 

the same time as, or later than, other 

market participants. The information 

described above will be made available 

on the Exchange’s public website for 

free to any party, for any purpose 

(including redistribution). 

Because of the technology changes 

associated with this proposed rule 

change, the Exchange will announce the 

implementation date by Trader Update, 

which, subject to effectiveness of this 

proposed rule change, will be no later 

than in the fourth quarter of 2024. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The basis under the Act for this 

proposed rule change is the requirement 

under Section 6(b)(5) 8 that an exchange 

have rules that are designed to prevent 

fraudulent and manipulative acts and 

practices, to promote just and equitable 

principles of trade, to remove 

impediments to, and perfect the 

mechanism of a free and open market 

and, in general, to protect investors and 

the public interest. 

NYSE believes that the proposed rule 

change is designed to prevent 

fraudulent and manipulative acts and 

practices, and is designed to promote 

just and equitable principles of trade 

and to protect investors and the public 

interest. The information provided by 

NYSE on its public website is 

disseminated by NYSE in its capacity as 

a provider of financial data for the 

benefit of investors and market 

participants, not in its capacity as an 

exchange. With this proposal, NYSE 

market data systems would not have 

unique access to any information, 

including information provided to the 

Exchange in its role as a listing venue 

and any new information the Exchange 

may receive in the future in its role as 

a listing venue, and therefore NYSE 

would not have any competitive 

advantage relative to any market 

participant with respect to the gathering 

and dissemination of such information. 

The information described above will be 

made available on the Exchange’s public 

website for free to any party, for any 

purpose (including redistribution). 

Consequently, the publication of 

information the Exchange receives from 

listed companies in its role as a listing 

venue, together with the information 

published by listed companies that is 

generally available in the public 

domain, including on the Commission’s 

website and other sources, would enable 

any market participant to 

contemporaneously assemble its own 

set of market data products containing 

the same information. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Exchange does not believe that 

the proposed rule change will impose 

any burden on competition that is not 

necessary or appropriate in furtherance 

of the purpose of the Act. NYSE believes 

the proposal will benefit investors and 

the marketplace because information the 

Exchange receives from listed 

companies in its role as a listing venue 

that NYSE provides to its subscribers, 

would be exclusively sourced from 

publicly available files. Because the 

information would be made publicly 

available on its website, and the NYSE 

market data systems would be a 

consumer of these publicly available 

files, NYSE would have no material 

advantage in the gathering and 

processing of the information relative to 

any other market participant that 

chooses to gather and process the same 

information. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants, or Others 

No written comments were solicited 

or received with respect to the proposed 

rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the proposed rule change 

does not: (i) significantly affect the 

protection of investors or the public 

interest; (ii) impose any significant 

burden on competition; and (iii) become 

operative prior to 30 days from the date 

on which it was filed, or such shorter 

time as the Commission may designate, 

the proposed rule change has become 

effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) 

of the Act 9 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 

thereunder.10

At any time within 60 days of the 

filing of the 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.

notice is hereby given that on October 

28, 2024, Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the 

‘‘Exchange’’ or ‘‘BZX’’) filed with the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule

III below, which Items have been

Commission is publishing this notice to

Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (the

The text of the proposed rule change is

The text of the proposed rule change

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 proposes to amend its 

fee schedule relating to physical 

connectivity fees.3

By way of background, a physical port 

is utilized by a Member or non-Member 

to connect to the Exchange at the data 

centers where the Exchange’s servers are 

located. The Exchange currently 

assesses the following physical 

connectivity fees for Members and nonMembers on a monthly basis: $2,500 per 

physical port for a 1 gigabit (‘‘Gb’’) 

circuit and $7,500 per physical port for 

a 10 Gb circuit. The Exchange proposes 

to increase the monthly fee for 10 Gb 

physical ports from $7,500 to $8,500 per 

port. The Exchange notes the proposed 

fee change better enables it to continue 

to maintain and improve its market 

technology and services and also notes 

that the proposed fee amount, even as 

amended, continues to be in line with, 

or even lower than, amounts assessed by 

other exchanges for similar 

connections.4 The Exchange also notes
