SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Gross Collection of ExchangeSet Margins for Omnibus Accounts
(OMB Control No. 3038–0026). This is
a request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: Commission Regulation 1.58
requires futures commission merchants
to collect exchange-set margin for
omnibus accounts on a gross, rather
than a net, basis. The regulation
provides that the carrying future
commission merchant (FCM) need not
collect margin for positions traded by a
person through an omnibus account in
excess of the amount that would be
required if the same person, instead of
trading through an omnibus account,
maintained its own account with the
carrying FCM. To prevent abuse of this

exception to the regulation, a carrying
FCM must maintain a written
representation from the originating FCM
or foreign broker that the particular
positions held in the omnibus account
are part of a hedge or spread transaction.
This collection of information is
necessary in order to provide
documentation that can be inspected
with regard to questions of proper
compliance with gross margining
requirements. This rule is promulgated
pursuant to the Commission’s
rulemaking authority contained in
Sections 4c, 4d, 4f, 4g and 8a of the
Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C. 6c,
6d, 6f, 6g and 12a.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The Federal Register
notice with a 60-day comment period
soliciting comments on this collection
of information was published on
November 22, 2017 (82 FR 55591).
Burden statement: The Commission is
revising its estimate of the burden due
to the reduced number of futures
commission merchants in the industry.
The respondent burden for this
collection is estimated to be as follows:
Respondents/Affected Entities: 57.
Reports annually by each respondent:
4.
Estimated number of responses: 228.
Estimated average number of hours
per response: 0.08.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 18 hours.
Frequency of collection: On occasion.
There are no capital costs or operating
and maintenance costs associated with
this collection.
