SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-81414; File No. SR-ICC-2017-009]


Self-Regulatory Organizations; ICE Clear Credit LLC; Notice of 
Designation of Longer Period for Commission Action on Proposed Rule 
Change To Provide for the Clearance of Additional Credit Default Swap 
Contracts

August 17, 2017.
    On June 13, 2017, ICE Clear Credit LLC (``ICC'') filed with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to 
Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act (``Act'') \1\ and Rule 
19b-4 thereunder,\2\ a proposed rule change to provide for the 
clearance of additional credit default swap contracts (File No. SR-ICC-
2017-009). The proposed rule change was published for comment in the 
Federal Register on July 3, 2017.\3\ To date, the Commission has not 
received comments on the proposed rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
    \3\ Securities Exchange Act Release No. 34-81029 (June 27, 
2017), 82 FR 30931 (July 3, 2017) (SR-ICC-2017-008) (``Notice'').
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 19(b)(2) of the Act \4\ provides that within 45 days of the 
publication of notice of the filing of a proposed rule change, or 
within such longer period up to 90 days as the Commission may designate 
if it finds such longer period

[[Page 40051]]

to be appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or as to 
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission shall 
either approve the proposed rule change, disapprove the proposed rule 
change, or institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule 
change should be disapproved. The 45th day from the publication of 
notice of filing of this proposed rule change is August 17, 2017.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Commission is extending the 45-day time period for Commission 
action on the proposed rule change. ICC's proposes to revise the ICC 
Rulebook to provide for the clearance of Standard Asia Corporate Single 
Name CDS contracts, Standard Asia Financial Corporate Single Name CDS 
contracts, and Standard Emerging Market Corporate Single Name CDS 
contracts. The Commission finds it is appropriate to designate a longer 
period within which to take action on the proposed rule change so that 
it has sufficient time to consider ICC's proposed rule change.
    Accordingly, the Commission, pursuant to Section 19(b)(2) \5\ of 
the Act, designates October 1, 2017, as the date by which the 
Commission should either approve or disapprove, or institute 
proceedings to determine whether to disapprove, the proposed rule 
change (File No. SR-ICC-2017-009).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(2).

    For the Commission, by the Division of Trading and Markets, 
pursuant to delegated authority.\6\

    \6\ 17 CFR 200.30-3(a)(31).

Assistant Secretary.
