Rule 604 requires, with certain
exceptions, specialists and market makers to display customer limit
orders that are priced superior to the quote that the specialist or
market maker is currently displaying. Customer limit orders that
match the bid or offer being displayed by the specialist or market
maker must be reflected in the quote if the limit order price also
matches the national best bid or offer when the size of the
customer limit order is more than de minimis. Regarding the
emergency reinstatement: The Commission and staff participate in
ongoing dialogue with representatives of various market
participants through public conferences, meetings, and informal
exchanges. However, because the Commission is requesting a
reinstatement of a previously approved information collection on an
emergency basis, the Commission has not yet specifically solicited
comments on this information collection. If reinstatement is
granted, the Commission will publish a notice soliciting comments
in the Federal Register prior to seeking an extension of the term
of the information collection.
This OMB number was
previously reinstated just last year. However, due to an issue with
our internal tracking system, it was inadvertently allowed to
expire. We are requesting emergency approval so that the number may
be reinstated while we work on the extension. We have reviewed the
burden estimates and Supporting Statement that were previously
submitted and we do not have any changes. In addition, we have
attached a separate memo to request the emergency
reinstatement.
