SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION
:
Title: Rules Relating to the Operations
and Activities of Commodity Pool
Operators and Commodity Trading
Advisors and to Monthly Reporting by
Futures Commission Merchants (OMB
Control No. 3038–0005). This is a
request for extension of a currently
approved information collection.
Abstract: The various collections of
information required by part 4 of the
Commission’s regulations were
previously approved by OMB in
accordance with the PRA and assigned
OMB control number 3038–0005.
2
The
Commission offers the following
summary of the renewal and the
resulting impact on existing burden
hour estimates associated with this
information collection. The Commodity
Exchange Act (CEA) empowers the
Commission with the authority to
require commodity pool operators
(CPOs) and commodity trading advisors
(CTAs) to maintain books and records
and to file reports as required by the
Commission.
3
The Commission also has
the power to promulgate such
regulations as it deems necessary to
implement the purposes of the CEA.
4
It
is pursuant to this authority that the
Commission has promulgated the
various compliance requirements for
CPOs and CTAs in 17 CFR part 4. The
reporting, filing, and recordkeeping
requirements within part 4 of the
Commission’s regulations were adopted
to assist and inform customers, to
establish customer protection initiatives
for investors, to facilitate monitoring
intermediary compliance with part 4
regulations by the Commission and its
delegee, the National Futures
Association (NFA), and to enable the
Commission to better monitor the
market risks posed by its registrants.
The information collections are
necessary to enable the Commission and
NFA to accomplish the purposes of both
the CEA and the compliance regime set
forth in part 4 of the Commission’s
regulations.
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. On July 12, 2023, the
Commission published in the Federal
Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 88
FR 44280 (60-Day Notice). The
Commission did not receive any
relevant substantive comments on the
60-Day Notice.
Burden Statement: The respondent
burden for this collection is estimated to
be as follows:
Respondents/Affected Entities: (1) All
persons filing reports required by 17
CFR part 4, and (2) all principals of such
persons.
Estimated number of respondents:
49,083.
Estimated number of exempt pools/
reports per respondent: 8.8.
Estimated total annual burden on
respondents: 432,325 hours.
(Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.)
Dated: September 19, 2023.
