Form NRSRO
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'') is soliciting comments on the existing
collection of information provided for in Rule 17g-1, Form NRSRO and
Instructions to Form NRSRO under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).\1\ The Commission plans to submit this
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and
Budget for extension and approval.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ See 17 CFR 240.17g-1 and 17 CFR 249b.300.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rule 17g-1, Form NRSRO and the Instructions to Form NRSRO contain
certain recordkeeping and disclosure requirements for NRSROs.
Currently, there are 10 credit rating agencies registered as NRSROs
with the Commission. Based on staff experience the Commission estimates
that the revised ongoing annual burden for respondents to comply with
Rule 17g-1 and Form NRSRO is 2,750 hours. In addition, the Commission
estimates an industry-wide annual external cost to NRSROs of $4,000 to
comply with the requirements.
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
shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the Commission's
estimates of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information on
respondents; 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
writing within 60 days of this publication. August 11, 2023
The Commission may not conduct or sponsor a collection of
information unless it displays a currently valid control number. No
person shall be subject to any penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information subject to the PRA that does not display a
valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number.
Please direct your written comments to: Dave Bottom, Director/Chief
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o John
Pezzullo, 100 F St NE, Washington, DC 20549 or send an email to:
