Proposed Rule Change Relating to a 

Proposed Fee 

October 29, 2010. 

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

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 

(‘‘Act’’),1 notice is hereby given that on 

October 18, 2010 the Fixed Income 

Clearing Corporation (‘‘FICC’’) filed with 

the Securities and Exchange 

Commission (‘‘Commission’’) the 

proposed rule change as described in 

Items I and II below, which Items have 

been prepared primarily by FICC. FICC 

filed the proposed rule change pursuant 

to Section 19(b)(3)(A)(ii) of the Act 2 and 

Rule 19b–4(f)(2) 3 thereunder so that the 

proposal was effective upon filing with 

the Commission. 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 

The proposed rule change amends 

FICC’s Government Securities Division’s 

(‘‘GSD’’) Fee Structure to add a monthly 

fee of $250 for GCF participants with 

the exception of the GCF inter-dealer 

brokers for the development and 

maintenance of the DTCC GCF Repo 

Index. 

II. Self-Regulatory Organization’s 

Statement of the Purpose of, and 

Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule 

Change 

In its filing with the Commission, 

FICC 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. FICC 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 

The proposed rule change amends the 

GSD Fee Structure to add a monthly fee 

of $250 for GCF participants with the 

exception of the GCF inter-dealer 

brokers for the development and 

maintenance of the DTCC GCF Repo 

Index. This fee will become effective as 

of December 1, 2010. The index will 

provide the daily weighted average of 

the general collateral rate for each of the 

three most highly traded GCF Repo 

CUSIPs along with the total par value of 

all daily transactions in each CUSIP. 

FICC plans to post the index daily on 

FICC’s Web site.

requirements of Section 17A of the Act 4

or other charge applicable only to a 

member. At any time within 60 days of
