SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE
COMMISSION
[SEC File No. 270–771, OMB Control No.
3235–0752]

Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request; Extension: Rule
18a–9
Upon Written Request, Copies Available
From: Securities and Exchange
Commission, Office of FOIA Services,
100 F Street NE, Washington, DC
20549–2736.
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’’) has submitted to the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) a request for approval of
extension of the previously approved

collection of information provided for in
Rule 18a–9, under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78a et
seq.).
Rule 18a–9, which is modeled on
Exchange Act Rule 17a–13, establishes a
securities count program for securitybased swap dealers not dually registered
as a broker-dealer or regulated by a
prudential regulator (‘‘stand-alone
SBSDs’’). Specifically, Rule 18a–9
requires stand-alone SBSDs to examine
and count the securities they physically
hold, account for the securities that are
subject to their control and direction but
are not in their physical possession,
verify the locations of securities under
certain circumstances, and compare the
results of the count and verification
with their records.
Stand-alone SBSDs are required to
perform a securities count each quarter,
either as of a date certain or on a
cyclical basis. Rule 18a–9 requires
stand-alone SBSDs to note any
discrepancies between the count and
the firm’s records, and to record in the
firm’s record any discrepancies that
remain unresolved seven business days
after the date of the examination, count,
and verification.
The Commission estimates that the
total hour burden under Rule 18a–9 is
approximately 1,100 hours per year.
Since the last approval of this
information collection, the estimated
total burden hours per year has
increased due to an increase in the
estimated number of respondents
subject to the requirements of the Rule.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
under the PRA unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The public may view background
documentation for this information
collection at the following website:
www.reginfo.gov. Find this particular
information collection by selecting
‘‘Currently under 30-day Review—Open
for Public Comments’’ or by using the
search function. Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent by
July 15, 2024 to (i) www.reginfo.gov/
public/do/PRAMain and (ii) David
Bottom, Director/Chief Information
Officer, Securities and Exchange
Commission, c/o John Pezzullo, 100 F
Street NE, Washington, DC 20549, or by
sending an email to PRA_Mailbox@
sec.gov.
Dated: June 11, 2024.
Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
