SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

[SEC File No. 270–418, OMB Control No. 

3235–0485] 

Submission for OMB Review; 

Comment Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 

100 F Street NE, Washington, DC 

20549–2736. 

Extension: 

Rule 15c2–1. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(‘‘PRA’’) (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the 

Securities and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) has submitted to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of 

extension of the previously approved 

collection of information provided for in 

Rule 15c2–1, (17 CFR 240.15c2–1), 

under the Securities Exchange Act of 

1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.). 

Rule 15c2–1 (17 CFR 240.15c2–1) 

prohibits the commingling under the 

same lien of securities of margin 

customers (a) with other customers 

without their written consent and (b) 

with the broker or dealer. The rule also 

prohibits the re-hypothecation of 

customers’ margin securities for a sum 

in excess of the customer’s aggregate 

indebtedness. Pursuant to Rule 15c2–1, 

respondents must collect information 

necessary to prevent the rehypothecation of customer securities in 

contravention of the rule, issue and 

retain copies of notices of hypothecation 

of customer securities in accordance 

with the rule, and collect written 

consents from customers in accordance 

with the rule. The information is 

necessary to ensure compliance with the 

rule and to advise customers of the 

rule’s protections. 

There are approximately 79 

respondents (i.e., broker-dealers that 

conducted business with the public, 

filed Part II or Part IICSE of the FOCUS 

Report, did not claim an exemption 

from the Rule 15c3–3 reserve formula 

computation, and reported that they had 

a bank loan during at least one quarter 

of the current year) that require an 

aggregate total of 1,778 hours to comply 

with the rule. Each of these 

approximately 79 registered brokerdealers makes an estimated 45 annual 

responses. Each response takes 

approximately 0.5 hours to complete. 

Thus, the total compliance burden per 

year is 1,778 burden hours. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

under the PRA unless it displays a 

currently valid OMB control number.

collection at the following website:
