SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE 

COMMISSION 

Proposed Extension of Existing 

Collection; Comment Request 

Upon Written Request, Copies Available 

From: U.S. Securities and Exchange 

Commission, Office of Investor 

Education and Advocacy, 

Washington, DC 20549–0213. 

Extension: 

Rule 17a–11; OMB Control No. 3235–0085; 

SEC File No. 270–94. 

Notice is hereby given that pursuant 

to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities 

and Exchange Commission 

(‘‘Commission’’) is soliciting comments 

on the existing collection of information 

provided for in the following rule: Rule 

17a–11 (17 CFR 240.17a–11) under the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 

U.S.C. 78a et seq.) (‘‘Exchange Act’’). 

The Commission plans to submit this 

existing collection of information to the 

Office of Management and Budget 

(‘‘OMB’’) for extension and approval. 

In response to an operational crisis in 

the securities industry between 1967 

and 1970, the Commission adopted Rule 

17a–11 (17 CFR 240.17a–11) under the 

Exchange Act on July 11, 1971. The 

Rule requires broker-dealers that are 

experiencing financial or operational 

difficulties to provide notice to the 

Commission, the broker-dealer’s 

designated examining authority 

(‘‘DEA’’), and the Commodity Futures 

Trading Commission (‘‘CFTC’’) if the 

broker-dealer is registered with the 

CFTC as a futures commission 

merchant. Rule 17a–11 is an integral 

part of the Commission’s financial 

responsibility program which enables 

the Commission, a broker-dealer’s DEA, 

and the CFTC to increase surveillance of 

a broker-dealer experiencing difficulties 

and to obtain any additional 

information necessary to gauge the 

broker-dealer’s financial or operational 

condition. 

Rule 17a–11 also requires over-thecounter (‘‘OTC’’) derivatives dealers and 

broker-dealers that are permitted to 

compute net capital pursuant to 

Appendix E to Exchange Act Rule 15c3– 

1 to notify the Commission when their 

tentative net capital drops below certain 

levels. OTC derivatives dealers must 

also provide notice to the Commission 

of backtesting exceptions identified 

pursuant to Appendix F of Rule 15c3– 

1 (17 CFR 15c3–1f). 

Compliance with the Rule is 

mandatory. The Commission will 

generally not publish or make available 

to any person notice or reports received 

pursuant to Rule 17a–11. The 

Commission believes that information 

obtained under Rule 17a–11 relates to a 

condition report prepared for the use of 

the Commission, other federal 

governmental authorities, and securities 

industry self-regulatory organizations 

responsible for the regulation or 

supervision of financial institutions. 

Only broker-dealers whose capital 

declines below certain specified levels 

or who are otherwise experiencing 

financial or operational problems have a 

reporting burden under Rule 17a–11. In 

2008, the Commission received 

approximately 400 notices under this 

Rule. The Commission did not receive 

any Rule 17a–11 notices from OTC 

derivatives dealers or broker-dealers 

that are permitted to compute net 

capital pursuant to Appendix E to 

Exchange Act Rule 15c3–1. 

Each broker-dealer reporting pursuant 

to Rule 17a–11 will spend 

approximately one hour preparing and 

transmitting the notice required by the 

rule. Accordingly, the total estimated 

annualized burden under Rule 17a–11 is 

400 hours. 

Written comments are invited on: (a) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

Commission, including whether the 

information has practical utility; (b) the 

accuracy of the Commission’s estimate 

of the burden of the proposed collection 

of information; (c) ways to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on 

respondents, including through the use 

of automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

Consideration will be given to 

comments and suggestions submitted in
