SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[Release No. 34-69666; File No. SR-DTC-2013-04]

Self-Regulatory Organizations; The Depository Trust Company;
Notice of Filing of Proposed Rule Change in Connection With the
Modifications to Receiver Authorized Delivery and Reclaim Processing
Value Limits by Transaction

May 30, 2013.
    Pursuant to Section 19(b)(1) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934
(``Act'') \1\ and Rule 19b-4 thereunder,\2\ notice is hereby given that
on May 17, 2013, The Depository Trust Company (``DTC'') filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (``Commission'') the proposed rule
change as described in Items I, II and III below, which Items have been
prepared primarily by DTC. The Commission is publishing this notice to
solicit comments on the proposed rule change from interested persons.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 15 U.S.C. 78s(b)(1).
    \2\ 17 CFR 240.19b-4.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Terms of Substance of the
Proposed Rule Change

    The proposed rule change modifies DTC's Rules & Procedures
(``Rules''), as described below, with respect to Receiver Authorized
Delivery (``RAD'') and reclaim transactions, to: (i) Lower limits
against which valued Deliver Orders (``DO'') and Payment Orders
(``PO'') will be required to be accepted for receipt (i.e., ``matched''
for settlement), (ii) lower limits for same day reclaim transactions,
and (iii) revise the process for RAD matching of stock loans and
returns, each as more fully described below.\3\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \3\ A Deliver Order is a book-entry movement of a particular
security between two DTC participants. A Payment Order is a method
for settling funds amounts related to transactions and payments not
associated with a Deliver Order. The defined term ``DO'' as used in
this proposed rule change filing includes all valued Deliver Orders
except for Deliver Orders of: (i) Money Market Instruments and (ii)
Institutional Deliveries affirmed through Omgeo, both of which are
not impacted by the proposed Rule change.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

II. Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis
for, the Proposed Rule Change

    In its filing with the Commission, DTC included statements
concerning the purpose of and basis for the proposed rule change and
discussed any comments it received on the proposed rule change. The
text of these statements may be examined at the places specified in
Item IV below. DTC has prepared summaries, set forth in sections (A),
(B), and (C) below, of the most significant aspects of these
statements.\4\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \4\ The Commission has modified the text of the summaries
prepared by DTC.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

(A) Clearing Agency's Statement of the Purpose of, and Statutory Basis
for, the Proposed Rule Change

    (i) By this filing, DTC seeks to modify the RAD functionality as
more fully described below to reduce the intraday uncertainty that may
arise from reclaim transactions and any potential credit and liquidity
risk from such reclaims.
    All valued DOs and POs valued in amounts above $15 million and $1
million, respectively, are subject to the RAD process, which allows
receivers to review and reject transactions that they do not recognize
prior to processing for delivery. In contrast, lower value DOs and POs
do not require the receiver's acceptance prior to processing in
accordance with DTC's Rules; instead, such transactions may be returned
by the receiver in a reclaim transaction, if the receiver does not
recognize the DO or PO. While both the reclaim and RAD functionalities
allow receiving DTC participants (``Participants'') to exercise control
over which transactions to accept, reclaims tend to create uncertainty
because transactions can be returned late in the day, when the original
deliverer may have limited options to respond. Because such reclaims
are permitted without regard to risk management controls, the
Participant that initiated the original delivery versus payment may
then incur a greater settlement obligation, increasing credit and
liquidity risk to that Participant and to the Corporation.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ DTC's risk management controls, including Collateral Monitor
and Net Debit Cap (as defined in DTC Rule 1), are designed so that
DTC can effect system-wide settlement notwithstanding the failure to
settle of its largest Participant or affiliated family of
Participants. Net Debit Cap limits the net debit balance a
Participant can incur so that the unpaid settlement obligation of
the Participant, if any, cannot exceed DTC liquidity resources. The
Collateral Monitor tests that a receiver has adequate collateral to
secure the amount of its net debit balance so that DTC may borrow
funds to cover that amount for system-wide settlement if the
Participant defaults.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    For these reasons, DTC states that pre-settlement matching through
RAD is a preferable approach, without the uncertainty and credit and
liquidity implications of reclaims. Under this proposal, DTC will
change RAD to require Participants to match all settlement-related
transactions valued greater than $7.5 million for valued DOs and
$500,000 for POs, prior to processing. Matched transactions will be
processed through DTC subject to risk management controls.\6\
Concurrently, the value of reclaims that may bypass risk management
controls will be reduced to $7.5 million for valued DOs and $500,000
for POs.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ Each reclaim of a matched transaction that is attempted will
be processed as an original instruction and be subject to risk
management controls and receiver approval (the original deliverer)
via RAD.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    DTC is also proposing a further revision to RAD for stock loan and
stock loan return transactions. Currently, Participants may set
bilateral and global limits for transactions subject to RAD which allow
transactions with settlement values that are greater than DTC's default
limits, but less than the Participant's defined bilateral and/or global
limits, to be passively approved.\7\ Any established limits apply to
all transactions with the applicable counterparties (on either a
bilateral or global basis) for all transaction types subject to RAD.
However, stock loan transactions (and stock loan returns) are often
different from ordinary buys and sells, because stock loans are often
agreed upon on a same-day basis (as opposed to T+3 settlement of
purchases and sales). Taking this difference into account, in addition
to the revisions described above, the proposed Rule changes will allow
receiving Participants to establish bilateral and global RAD limits for
stock loans and stock loan returns that are different from other
transaction types.\8\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \7\ A bilateral limit established by a Participant applies to
transactions from a specified deliverer. A global limit established
by a Participant is applied to all valued DOs and POs to the
Participant not otherwise subject to a bilateral limit. Transactions
passively approved under such limits may not be reclaimed.
    \8\ The use of a stock lending and return profile will be
voluntary and, absent a profile, the Participant's transactions will
be subject to RAD as applicable to ordinary DOs, including the
established DTC limits as well as Participant established bilateral
and global limits as described above.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The DTC Settlement Services Guide will be revised to reflect the
changes discussed above.
    The effective date of the proposed rule change will be announced
via a DTC Important Notice.
    (ii) Section 17A(b)(3)(F) of the Act requires that the rules of the
clearing agency be designed, inter alia, to

promote the prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of securities
transactions. The proposed rule change is designed to promote the
prompt and accurate clearance and settlement of securities transactions
by increasing the number of deliveries which will be required to be
approved by the receiving Participant prior to DTC processing, which
will enhance settlement certainty.

(B) Clearing Agency's Statement on Burden on Competition

    DTC does not believe that the proposed rule change will have any
impact or impose any burden on competition.

(C) Clearing Agency's Statement on Comments on the Proposed Rule Change
Received From Members, Participants or Others

    Written comments relating to the proposed rule change have not been
solicited or received. DTC will notify the Commission of any written
comments received by DTC.

III. Date of Effectiveness of the Proposed Rule Change and Timing for
Commission Action

    Within 45 days of the date of publication of this notice in the
Federal Register or within such longer period up to 90 days (i) as the
Commission may designate if it finds such longer period to be
appropriate and publishes its reasons for so finding or (ii) as to
which the self-regulatory organization consents, the Commission will:
    (A) by order approve or disapprove the proposed rule change or
    (B) institute proceedings to determine whether the proposed rule
change should be disapproved.

IV. Solicitation of Comments

arguments concerning the foregoing, including whether the proposed rule
change is consistent with the Act. Comments may be submitted by any of
the following methods:

    Comment Date: 5 p.m. Eastern Time on Monday, September 17, 2008.
    Any person desiring to intervene or to protest in any of the above
proceedings must file in accordance with Rules 211 and 214 of the
Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (18 CFR 385.211 and
385.214) on or before 5 p.m. Eastern time on the specified comment
date. It is not necessary to separately intervene again in a subdocket
related to a compliance filing if you have previously intervened in the
same docket. Protests will be considered by the Commission in
determining the appropriate action to be taken, but will not serve to
make protestants parties to the proceeding. Anyone filing a motion to
intervene or protest must serve a copy of that document on the
Applicant. In reference to filings initiating a new proceeding,
interventions or protests submitted on or before the comment deadline
need not be served on persons other than the Applicant.
    The Commission encourages electronic submission of protests and
interventions in lieu of paper, using the FERC Online links at http://
www.ferc.gov. To facilitate electronic service, persons with Internet
access who will eFile a document and/or be listed as a contact for an
intervenor must create and validate an eRegistration account using the
eRegistration link. Select the eFiling link to log on and submit the
intervention or protests.
    Persons unable to file electronically should submit an original and
14 copies of the intervention or protest to the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission, 888 First St., NE., Washington, DC 20426.
    The filings in the above proceedings are accessible in the
Commission's eLibrary system by clicking on the appropriate link in the
above list. They are also available for review in the Commission's
Public Reference Room in Washington, DC. There is an eSubscription link
on the Web site that enables subscribers to receive e-mail notification
