SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0713]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB 
Review; 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. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange 
Commission (SEC or ``Commission'') is submitting to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) this request for an extension of the 
previously approved collection of information in Rule 15Fi-2 (17 CFR 
240.15Fi-2) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Exchange 
Act'') (15 U.S.C. 78a et seq.).
    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 facilitates 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.
    The public may view and comment on this information collection

Sherry R. Haywood,
Assistant Secretary.
