14 17 CFR 240.19b–4(f)(6). As required under Rule 

19b–4(f)(6)(iii), the Exchange provided the 

Commission with written notice of its intent to file 

the proposed rule change, along with a brief 

description and the text of the proposed rule 

change, at least five business days prior to the date 

of filing of the proposed rule change, or such

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 for 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 13 and Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 

thereunder.14

A proposed rule change filed 

pursuant to Rule 19b–4(f)(6) under the 

Act 15 normally does not become 

operative for 30 days after the date of its 

filing. However, Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii) 16

permits the Commission to designate a 

shorter time if such action is consistent 

with the protection of investors and the 

public interest. The Exchange has asked 

the Commission to waive the 30-day 

operative delay so that the proposal may 

become operative immediately upon 

filing. The Exchange stated that waiver 

of the operative delay will permit the 

Exchange to immediately provide the 

enhanced transparency in Exchange 

rules. The Commission believes the 

waiver of the operative delay is 

consistent with the protection of 

investors and the public interest. 

Therefore, the Commission hereby 

waives the operative delay and 

designates the proposal operative upon 

filing.17

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. If the 

Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

should be approved or disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments

submit written data, views and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.

Self-Regulatory Organizations; BATS 

Y-Exchange, Inc.; Notice of Filing and 

Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed 

Rule Change To Amend Rule 11.22 To 

Update the Names of Certain Market 

Data Products 

March 2, 2015. 

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

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the 

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

notice is hereby given that on February 

18, 2015, BATS Y-Exchange, Inc. (the 

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

(‘‘Commission’’) the proposed rule 

change as described in Items I and II 

below, which Items have been prepared 

by the Exchange. The Exchange has 

designated this proposal as a ‘‘noncontroversial’’ 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 parts 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 

Rule 11.22, Data Products, to update the 

names of certain products to align with 

recent changes made to the names of the 

same products in the Exchange’s fee 

schedule. On February 3, 2015, the 

Exchange filed a proposed rule change 

with the Commission that, among other 

things, amended the Exchange’s fee 

schedule to rename ‘‘BZX Exchange 

PITCH Feed’’ as the ‘‘BZX Depth’’, 

‘‘BZX Exchange Top Feed’’ as ‘‘BZX 

Top’’, ‘‘BZX Exchange Historical TOP’’ 

as ‘‘BZX Historical Top’’, and 

‘‘Historical PITCH’’ as ‘‘Historical 

Depth.’’ The Exchange now proposes to 

rename the following data products 

under Rule 11.22 to align with these 

changes: (i) ‘‘TCP PITCH’’ under 

subparagraph (a) would be renamed 

‘‘TCP Depth’’; (ii) ‘‘Multicast PITCH’’ 

under subparagraph (c) would be 

renamed ‘‘Multicast Depth’’; and (iii) 

‘‘TOP’’ under subparagraph (d) would 

be renamed ‘‘Top’’. The Exchange does 

not propose to amend the content or any 

other aspect of these market data 

products. 

2. Statutory Basis 

The Exchange believes that its 

proposal is consistent with Section 6(b) 

of the Act 5 in general, and furthers the 

objectives of Section 6(b)(5) of the Act 6

in particular, in that it is designed to 

promote just and equitable principles of 

trade, to foster cooperation and 

coordination with persons engaged in 

facilitating transactions in securities, 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 does not 

believe that this proposal will permit 

unfair discrimination among customers, 

brokers, or dealers because it will apply 

to all Users. The proposed rule change 

does not propose to amend the content 

or any other aspect of these market data 

products. Rather, it is simply proposes 

to align the naming convention of the 

Exchange’s market data products across 

its rules and fee schedule, making the 

Exchange’s rules clearer and less 

confusing for investors. Therefore, the 

Exchange believes the proposed rule 

change removes impediments to and 

perfects the mechanism of a free and 

open market and a national market 

system, and, in general, protects 

investors and the public interest. 

B. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Burden on Competition 

The Exchange does not believe that 

the proposal will impose any burden on 

competition not necessary or 

appropriate in furtherance of the 

purposes of the Act. The proposed rule 

change is not designed to address any 

competitive issues but rather avoid 

investor confusion by providing 

consistency amongst the naming 

conventions used for the Exchange 

market data products. 

C. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement on Comments on the 

Proposed Rule Change Received From 

Members, Participants or Others 

The Exchange has neither solicited 

nor received written comments on the 

proposed rule change. 

III. Date of Effectiveness of the 

Proposed Rule Change and Timing for 

Commission Action 

Because the foregoing 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 for 30 days from the date on 

which it was filed, or such shorter time 

as the Commission may designate, it has 

become effective pursuant to Section 

19(b)(3)(A)(iii) of the Act 7 and 

subparagraph (f)(6) of Rule 19b–4 

thereunder.8

A proposed rule change filed under 

Rule 19b–4(f)(6) 9 normally does not 

become operative prior to 30 days after 

the date of the filing. However, pursuant 

to Rule 19b–4(f)(6)(iii),10 the 

Commission may designate a shorter 

time if such action is consistent with the 

protection of investors and the public 

interest. The Exchange has asked the 

Commission to waive the 30-day 

operative delay so the Exchange may 

clarify its rules by making them 

consistent throughout by reflecting a 

change in naming conventions used for 

Exchange market data products. The 

Commission believes that waiving the 

30-day operative delay is consistent 

with the protection of investors and the 

public interest because it will allow the 

Exchange to provide consistency within 

their rules and avoid potential investor 

confusion. Therefore, the Commission 

hereby waives the 30-day operative 

delay and designates the proposed rule 

change to be operative upon filing with 

the Commission.11

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: (i) Necessary or appropriate in 

the public interest; (ii) for the protection 

of investors; or (iii) otherwise in 

furtherance of the purposes of the Act. 

If the Commission takes such action, the 

Commission shall institute proceedings 

to determine whether the proposed rule 

should be approved or disapproved. 

IV. Solicitation of Comments 

Interested persons are invited to 

submit written data, views and 

arguments concerning the foregoing, 

including whether the proposed rule 

change is consistent with the Act.
