SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[OMB Control No. 3235-0713]
Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;
Comment Request; Extension: Rule 15Fi-2
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. Sec. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC or ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the
proposed collection of information.
Rule 15Fi-2 requires security-based swaps (``SBS'') dealers and
major SBS participants (collectively, ``SBS Entities'') to provide to
their counterparties a trade acknowledgment, to provide prompt
verification of the terms provided in a trade acknowledgment of
transactions from other SBS Entities, and to have written policies and
procedures that are reasonably designed to obtain prompt verification
of the terms provided in a trade acknowledgment. The Rule promotes the
efficient operation of the SBS market and facilitate market
participants' management of their SBS-related risk.
The Commission estimates that approximately 48 entities fit within
the definition of SBS dealer, and zero entities fit within the
definition of major SBS participant. Thus, we expect that approximately
48 entities will be required to register with the Commission as SBS
Entities and will be subject to the trade acknowledgment provision and
verification requirements of Rule 15Fi-2. The total estimated annual
time burden of Rule 15Fi-2 is 22,848 hours.
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.
Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the SEC, including whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the SEC's estimate of the burden
imposed by the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and the assumptions used; (c) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated,
electronic collection techniques or other forms of information
technology.
Please direct your written comments on this 60-Day Collection

Exchange Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via email to
