I. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Terms of Substance
of the Proposed Rule Change
Cboe BZX Exchange, Inc. (``BZX'' or the ``Exchange'') is filing
with the Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'' or ``SEC'')
a proposed rule change to amend the Fee Schedule applicable to Members
and non-members of the Exchange pursuant to BZX Rules 15.1(a) and (c)
in order to adopt a new Tier under footnote 13 (Tape B Volume and
Quoting) specific to Single-Stock Exchange Traded Funds (``Single-Stock
ETFs''). The text of the proposed rule change is provided in Exhibit 5.
The text of the proposed rule change is also available on the
Exchange's website (<a href="http://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/regulation/rule_filings/bzx/">http://markets.cboe.com/us/equities/regulation/rule_filings/bzx/</a>), at the Exchange's Office of the Secretary, and at
the Commission's Public Reference Room.
II. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
In its filing with the Commission, the Exchange included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. The Exchange has prepared summaries, set forth in
sections A, B, and C below, of the most significant aspects of such
statements.
A. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement of the Purpose of, and
Statutory Basis for, the Proposed Rule Change
1. Purpose
The Exchange proposes to amend its Fee Schedule applicable to its
equities trading platform (``BZX Equities'') to adopt a new Tier under
footnote 13 (Tape B Volume and Quoting) specific to Single-Stock
ETFs.\5\ The Exchange proposes to implement these amendments to its fee
schedule December 1, 2023.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\5\ Single-Stock ETFs are investment products that pay positive
or negative multiples of the market performance of the single
underlying security.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange first notes that it operates in a highly competitive
market in which market participants can readily direct order flow to
competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be
excessive or incentives to be insufficient. More specifically, the
Exchange is only one of 16 registered equities exchanges, as well as a
number of alternative trading systems and other off-exchange venues
that do not have similar self-regulatory responsibilities under the
Exchange Act, to which market participants may direct their order flow.
Based on publicly available information,\6\ no single registered
equities exchange has more than 17% of the market share. Thus, in such
a low-concentrated and highly competitive market, no single equities
exchange possesses significant pricing power in the execution of order
flow. The Exchange in particular operates a ``Maker-Taker'' model
whereby it pays credits to Members that add liquidity and assesses fees
to those that remove liquidity. The Exchange's fee schedule sets forth
the standard rebates and rates applied per share for orders that
provide and remove liquidity, respectively. Currently, for orders in
securities priced at or above $1.00, the Exchange provides a standard
rebate of $0.00160 per share for orders that add liquidity and assesses
a fee of $0.0030 per share for orders that remove liquidity.\7\ For
orders in securities priced below $1.00, the Exchange does not provide
a rebate or assess a fee for orders that add liquidity and assesses a
fee of 0.30% of total dollar value for orders that remove liquidity.\8\
Additionally, in response to the competitive environment, the Exchange
also offers Tiered pricing which provides Members opportunities to
qualify for higher rebates or reduced fees where certain volume
criteria and thresholds are met. Tiered pricing provides an incremental
incentive for Members to strive for higher Tier levels, which provides
increasingly higher benefits or discounts for satisfying increasingly
more stringent criteria.

\8\ Id.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, the Exchange proposes to adopt a new pricing Tier under
footnote 13 of the Fee Schedule. Specifically, for orders yielding fee
code B,\9\ the Exchange proposes to adopt LEP Tier 1 under footnote 13
of the Fee Schedule.\10\ The Exchange is proposing that a Member \11\
will qualify for the LEP Tier 1 where the Member is enrolled in a
minimum of five LEP Securities \12\ for which it meets certain required
criteria (the ``Required Criteria''). A Member must be enrolled in at
least the minimum number of LEP Securities for which it meets the
Required Criteria every day in a trading month in order to be eligible
for the proposed rebate. As proposed, the Exchange would count an LEP
Security toward the minimum number of LEP Securities requirement where
the Member meets the Required Criteria for at least 75% of the trading
days in a particular month. As noted above, these proposed requirements
are very similar to the existing LMP Tiers under footnote 13.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\9\ Fee code B is appended to displayed orders that add
liquidity to BZX in Tape B securities.
\10\ The existing tiers under footnote 13 were added in a fee
filing adopting a similar structure related to LMP securities on the
Exchange. See Securities Exchange Act No. 78338 (July 15, 2016) 81
FR 47458 (July 21, 2016) (SR-BatsBZX-2016-041) (Notice of Filing and
Immediate Effectiveness of a Proposed Rule Change Related to Fees
for Use of Bats BZX Exchange, Inc.).
\11\ See Exchange Rule 1.5(n).
\12\ As discussed further below, the Exchange proposes to adopt
the term ``LEP Securities'', which means a list of Single-Stock
ETFs, including options-based ETFs in a single underlying equity
security, for which the Exchange wants to incentivize Members to
provide enhanced market quality. The Exchange will not remove a
security from the list of LEP Securities without 30 days prior
notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
To qualify for proposed LEP Tier 1 a Member must be enrolled in at
least five BZX-listed LEP Securities and meet the following Required
Criteria,:
(1) The Member has an NBBO Time \13\ of equal or greater than 20%;
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\13\ ``NBBO Time'' means the average of the percentage of time
during regular trading hours during which the Member maintains at
least 100 shares at each of the NBB and NBO.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(2) Member has bids and offers with a ``Notional Depth'' \14\ of
$75,000 on each side for at least 90% of the trading day; and
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\14\ As discussed further below, the Exchange proposes to adopt
a new definition for ``Notional Depth'' which means the notional
value of bids of at least 100 shares that are within $0.05 of the
BZX NBB and offers of at least 100 shares that are within $0.05 of
the BZX NBO.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
(3) The difference in the NBBO spread of each LEP Security is less
than 0.50% for at least 95% of the trading day.
The Required Criteria for each LEP Security will each be evaluated
separately, and the Member does not need to meet the Required Criteria
for all applicable LEP Securities on the same 75% of trading days. For
example, in a month with 22 trading days, a Member would be eligible
for Tier 1 where the Member met the Required Criteria in five LEP
Securities in the first 11 trading days of the month and met the
Required Criteria for a different set of five LEP Securities in the
second 11 trading days of the month.
Members that meet proposed LEP Tier 1 would receive a rebate of
$0.0025 per share. In the event that a Member would receive a higher
rebate under a different Tier set forth in the Fee Schedule, the
[[Page 87478]]
Member would be entitled to the higher of the two rebates. As noted
above, the Exchange also proposes to adopt two new definitions to the
Fee Schedule. First, the Exchange proposes to adopt the term Notional
Depth which will mean the notional value of bids of at least 100 shares
that are within $0.05 of the NBB or offers of at least 100 shares that
are within $0.05 of the NBO. Second, the Exchange proposes to adopt the
term ``LEP Securities'' which will a list of Single-Stock ETFs,
including options-based ETFs in a single underlying equity security,
for which the Exchange wants to incentivize Members to provide enhanced
market quality.
All Members will be eligible to enroll in LEP Securities, there
will be no limit to the number of LEP Securities in which a Member may
enroll, and there will be no limit to the number of Members that can
enroll in each LEP Security.\15\ All Members enrolled in LMP Securities
will be eligible for the rebate where the Member meets the Tape B
Quoting LMP Tier 1 requirements. Such LEP Securities will include all
Cboe-listed Single-Stock ETFs for which the Exchange wants to
incentivize Members to provide enhanced market quality. The Exchange
will not remove a security from the list of LEP Securities without 30
days prior notice.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\15\ The Exchange anticipates that the initial list of LMP
Securities will include at least nine ETPs. A current list of LEP
Securities will be available on <a href="http://www.cboe.com">www.cboe.com</a>, which will be updated
as new securities are added to the list of LEP Securities. All Cboe-
listed LEP Securities will be enrolled in the program immediately
upon listing on the Exchange.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange also proposes to make a conforming change to the
existing Tiers under footnote 13 of the Fee Schedule. Specifically, the
Exchange proposes to rename existing Tiers 1 and 2 under footnote 13
``LMP Tier 1'' and ``LMP Tier 2'', respectively.
2. Statutory Basis
The Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the ``Act'') and the rules and
regulations thereunder applicable to the Exchange and, in particular,
the requirements of Section 6(b) of the Act.\16\ Specifically, the
Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section 6(b)(5) \17\ requirements that the rules of an exchange be
designed to prevent fraudulent and manipulative acts and practices, to
promote just and equitable principles of trade, to foster cooperation
and coordination with persons engaged in regulating, clearing,
settling, processing information with respect to, and facilitating
transactions in securities, to remove impediments to and perfect the
mechanism of a free and open market and a national market system, and,
in general, to protect investors and the public interest. Additionally,
the Exchange believes the proposed rule change is consistent with the
Section 6(b)(5) \18\ requirement that the rules of an exchange not be
designed to permit unfair discrimination between customers, issuers,
brokers, or dealers as well as Section 6(b)(4) \19\ as it is designed
to provide for the equitable allocation of reasonable dues, fees and
other charges among its Members and other persons using its facilities.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The proposed rule reflects a competitive pricing structure designed
to incent market participants to direct their order flow to the
Exchange and enhance market quality in LEP Securities and Tape B
securities. The Exchange notes that it operates in a highly competitive
market in which market participants can readily direct order flow to
competing venues if they deem fee levels at a particular venue to be
excessive. The Exchange believes that the proposed LEP Tier represents
an equitable allocation of rebates and are not unfairly discriminatory
because all Members are eligible for such LEP Tier and would have the
opportunity to meet the LEP Tier's criteria and would receive the
proposed rebate if such criteria is met. Further, the proposed rebates
are commensurate with the proposed criteria. That is, the rebates
reasonably reflect the difficulty in achieving the applicable criteria
as proposed. Without having a view of activity on other markets and
off-exchange venues, the Exchange has no way of knowing whether this
proposed rule change would definitely result in any Members qualifying
for the proposed LEP Tier. While the Exchange has no way of predicting
with certainty how the proposed LEP Tier will impact Member activity,
the Exchange reasonably expects four Members to compete for and reach
the proposed LEP Tier. The Exchange also notes that proposed Tier/
rebate will not adversely impact any Member's ability to qualify for
other reduced fee or enhanced rebate Tiers. Should a Member not meet
the proposed criteria under the proposed LEP Tier, the Member will
merely not receive that corresponding rebate.
The Exchange believes that the proposed new LEP Tier is reasonable
in that they will enhance market quality on the Exchange in two ways:
(i) by incentivizing Members to meet certain quoting standards in LEP
Securities designed to narrow spreads, increase size at the inside, and
increase liquidity depth; and (ii) providing a rebate for all of a
qualifying Member's orders that add liquidity in LEP Securities will
incentivize Members to increase their participation on the Exchange in
LEP Securities. Furthermore, the Exchange believes it is appropriate to
incentivize Members to meet the Required Criteria in LEP Securities as
such securities poses an enhanced risk to Members providing liquidity
in those securities. Therefore, the proposal offers an incentive to
Members providing liquidity in LEP Securities.
The Exchange believes that such incentives will promote price
discovery and market quality in such securities and, further, that the
tightened spreads and increased liquidity from the proposal will
benefit all investors by deepening the Exchange's liquidity pool,
offering additional flexibility for all investors to enjoy cost
savings, supporting the quality of price discovery, enhancing quoting
competition across exchanges, promoting market transparency, and
improving investor protection. Accordingly, the Exchange believes that
the proposal is reasonable, equitably allocated, and non-discriminatory
because it would apply uniformly to all Members and is consistent with
the overall goals of enhancing market quality.
The Exchange notes that the proposed pricing structure is not
dissimilar from volume-based rebates and fees (``Volume Tiers'') that
have been widely adopted by exchanges, including the Exchange, and are
equitable and not unfairly discriminatory because they are open to all
Members on an equal basis and provide higher rebates and lower fees
that are reasonably related to the value to an exchange's market
quality. Much like Volume Tiers are generally designed to incentivize
higher levels of liquidity provision and/or growth patterns on the
Exchange, the proposal is designed to incentivize enhanced market
quality on the Exchange through tighter spreads, greater size at the
inside, and greater quoting depth in LEP Securities by offering a
rebate in LEP Securities. Such rebates will simultaneously incentivize
higher levels of liquidity provision in all LEP Securities.
Accordingly, the Exchange believes that the proposal will act to
enhance liquidity and competition across exchanges in LEP Securities on
the Exchange by providing a rebate reasonably related to such enhanced
[[Page 87479]]
market quality to the benefit of all investors, thereby promoting the
principles discussed in Section 6(b)(5) of the Act.\20\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\20\ 15 U.S.C. 78f(b)(5).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Exchange also believes that the proposed definitions and name
changes to existing Tiers under footnote 13 are reasonable, fair and
equitable and non-discriminatory because it is designed to make sure
that the fee schedule is as clear and easily understandable as
possible.
B. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Burden on Competition
The Exchange does not believe that the proposed rule change will
impose any burden on competition that is not necessary or appropriate
in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. Particularly, the proposed
LEP Tier is available to all Members equally in that all Members are
eligible for the proposed LEP Tier, have a reasonable opportunity to
meet the LEP Tier's criteria and will receive the corresponding rebate
if such criteria is met. Additionally, the proposed LEP Tier is
designed to attract additional order flow to the Exchange. The Exchange
believes that the proposed LEP Tier criteria would incentivize market
participants to direct liquidity adding displayed order flow to the
Exchange, bringing with it additional execution opportunities for
market participants and improved price transparency. Greater overall
order flow, trading opportunities, and pricing transparency benefits
all market participants on the Exchange by enhancing market quality and
continuing to encourage Members to send orders, thereby contributing
towards a robust and well-balanced market ecosystem.
Next, the Exchange believes the proposed rule change does not
impose any burden on intermarket competition that is not necessary or
appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. As previously
discussed, the Exchange operates in a highly competitive market.
Members have numerous alternative venues that they may participate on
and direct their order flow, including 15 other equities exchanges and
off exchange venues and alternative trading systems. Additionally, the
Exchange represents a small percentage of the overall market. Based on
publicly available information, no single equities exchange has more
than 17% \21\ of the market share. Therefore, no exchange possesses
significant pricing power in the execution of order flow. Indeed,
participants can readily choose to send their orders to other exchange
and off-exchange venues if they deem fee levels at those other venues
to be more favorable. Moreover, the Commission has repeatedly expressed
its preference for competition over regulatory intervention in
determining prices, products, and services in the securities markets.
Specifically, in Regulation NMS, the Commission highlighted the
importance of market forces in determining prices and SRO revenues and,
also, recognized that current regulation of the market system ``has
been remarkably successful in promoting market competition in its
broader forms that are most important to investors and listed
companies.'' \22\ The fact that this market is competitive has also
long been recognized by the courts. In NetCoalition v. Securities and
Exchange Commission, the D.C. Circuit stated as follows: ``[n]o one
disputes that competition for order flow is `fierce.' . . . As the SEC
explained, `[i]n the U.S. national market system, buyers and sellers of
securities, and the broker-dealers that act as their order-routing
agents, have a wide range of choices of where to route orders for
execution'; [and] `no exchange can afford to take its market share
percentages for granted' because `no exchange possesses a monopoly,
regulatory or otherwise, in the execution of order flow from broker
dealers'. . . .''.\23\ Accordingly, the Exchange does not believe its
proposed fee change imposes any burden on competition that is not
necessary or appropriate in furtherance of the purposes of the Act.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
C. Self-Regulatory Organization's Statement on Comments on the Proposed
Rule Change Received From Members, Participants, or Others
The Exchange neither solicited nor received comments on the
proposed rule change.
III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action
Because the foregoing proposed rule change does not: (i)
significantly affect the protection of investors or the public
interest; (ii) impose any significant burden on competition; and (iii)
become operative for 30 days from the date on which it was filed, or
such shorter time as the Commission may designate, the proposed rule
change has become effective pursuant to Section 19(b)(3)(A) of the Act
\24\ and Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \25\ thereunder.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\24\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(3)(A).
\25\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
A proposed rule change filed under Rule 19b-4(f)(6) \26\ normally
does not become operative prior to 30 days after the date of the
filing. However, pursuant to Rule 19b-4(f)(6)(iii),\27\ the Commission
may designate a shorter time of such action is consistent with the
protection of investor and the public interest. The Exchange has asked
the Commission to waive the 30-day operative delay so that the proposed
rule change may become operative upon filing. The Exchange states that
waiving the operative delay would allow market participants to realize
the benefits of the proposal immediately and that such waiver is
consistent with the protection of investors and the public interest
because it would promote enhanced market quality and serve as an
additional safeguard against extreme price dislocation. Based on the
foregoing, the Commission believes that waiving the 30-day operative
delay is consistent with the protection of investors and the public
interest. Therefore, the Commission hereby waives the operative delay
and designates the proposal operative upon filing.\28\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\26\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6).
\27\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4(f)(6)(iii).
\28\ For purposes only of waiving the 30-day operative delay,
the Commission has considered the proposed rule's impact on
efficiency, competition, and capital formation. See 15 U.S.C.
78c(f).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
At any time within 60 days of the filing of the proposed rule
change, the Commission summarily may temporarily suspend such rule
change if it appears to the Commission that such action is necessary or
appropriate in the public interest, for the protection of investors, or
otherwise in furtherance of the purposes of the Act. If the Commission
takes such action, the Commission will institute proceedings to
determine whether the proposed rule change should be approved or
disapproved.

change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
