Rule 17a-4 requires certain records to be maintained by certain exchange members and registered brokers and dealers.
Partial Revision-- In November 2021, the Commission proposed amendments to the electronic recordkeeping requirements of broker-dealers in Rule 17a-4. This proposed revision addresses only the collections of information that are proposed to be revised or added as a result of the rule amendments proposed in November 2021 regarding the electronic recordkeeping requirements of broker-dealers.
The proposed amendments to the rule would result in new information collections related to electronic recordkeeping and would increase the burdens in this ICR.
