market may impose any burden on 

competition is extremely limited. 

In this instance, the proposed changes 

to the credits available to members for 

execution of securities in securities of 

all three Tapes do not impose a burden 

on competition because the Exchange’s 

execution services are completely 

voluntary and subject to extensive 

competition both from other exchanges 

and from off-exchange venues. The 

Exchange is proposing to decrease the 

amount of credit provided, increase the 

qualification requirement to receive a 

credit, eliminate a credit that has been 

unsuccessful at improving market 

quality significantly, and ease the 

criteria of a credit in an effort to 

improve market quality in the Nasdaq 

Closing Cross. These changes are 

reflective of the Exchange’s need to 

balance the incentives that it provides 

in return for the market improving 

behavior it seeks to incentivize. As 

discussed above, the Exchange has 

limited funds to apply toward 

incentives, and therefore must adjust 

the amount of credit provided, change 

credit tier qualification criteria, and in 

some cases discontinue credits 

altogether, to ensure that it has applied 

those limited funds most efficiently. 

In sum, if the changes proposed 

herein are unattractive to market 

participants, it is likely that the 

Exchange will lose market share as a 

result. Accordingly, the Exchange does 

not believe that the proposed changes 

will impair the ability of members or 

competing order execution venues to 

maintain their competitive standing in 

the financial markets.

SMALL BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 

Data Collection Available for Public 

Comments 

ACTION: 60-Day notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: As required by the Paperwork 

Reduction Act (PRA) the Small Business 

Administration (SBA) announces its 

intention to request approval from the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) of the reporting requirements 

described below. Under the PRA federal 

agencies are required to publish a notice 

in the Federal Register concerning each 

collection of information before it is 

submitted to OMB for review and 

approval, and to allow 60 days for 

public comment on the notice. This 

notice complies with that requirement. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

March 15, 2018. 

ADDRESSES: Send all comments to 

Michael Donadieu, Director, Office of 

SBIC Examinations, Office of 

Investment and Innovation, Small 

Business Administration, 409 3rd Street,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Small 

Business Investment Act of 1958, as 

amended, requires SBA to examine 

small business investment companies, 

(‘‘SBICs’’ or ‘‘Licensees’’). The statute 

requires examination at least every two 

years; however, generally SBA aims to 

examine SBICs more frequently. 

Specifically, SBA’s goal is to examine 

Leveraged licensees (SBICs with 

outstanding leverage, commitments, or 

earmarked assets) on a 12-month cycle 

and Non-leveraged licensees on a 18- 

month cycle. For newly licensed SBICs, 

the initial examination generally is 

conducted within six months of 

licensing. 

At the time SBA notifies the SBIC of 

the pending examination, the agency 

also identifies certain information the 

SBIC will be required to submit at the 

commencement of the examination 

process to assist examiners in planning 

the examination. Additionally, the 

information will provide a basis for: (a) 


daltland on DSKBBV9HB2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 13 / Friday, January 19, 2018 / Notices 2863 

Determining SBIC compliance with the 

Small Business Investment Act of 1958, 

as amended (‘‘Act’’) and implementing 

regulations; (b) assessing the financial 

condition of SBICs and SBA’s 

vulnerability; and (c) ensuring the 

accuracy of information that SBICs 

submit to SBA. 

The information to be collected 

consists of documentation falling into 

three broad categories: Portfolio 

information, Licensee documents, and 

accountant workpapers. Portfolio 

information covers investments made by 

the SBIC during the period covered by 

the examination, including, but not 

limited to, organizational and financial 

information, schedules of balances and 

repayments, and financing legal 

documents. Licensee documents deal 

with the SBIC’s organization and 

operations, including, but not limited 

to, banking and financial information, 

corporate governance, and capital 

documentation. Finally, accountant 

workpapers relate to the engagement of 

an independent public accountant, 

including, but not limited to 

engagement letters and management 

representation letters. 

Comments are invited on (a) whether 

this reporting requirement is necessary 

for the agency to properly perform its 

functions; (b) whether the burden 

estimates are accurate; (c) whether there 

are ways to minimize the burden, 

including through the use of automated 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology; and (d) whether there are 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the requested information.
