The Securities and Exchange Commission has extended its decision deadline concerning a rule change proposed by the Fixed Income Clearing Corporation (FICC). Originally submitted on June 12, 2024, the proposal involves a trade submission requirement, and comments on it have been received. After a partial amendment by FICC on September 24, 2024, the Commission decided to delay its decision to allow more time for consideration. The new deadline for the decision is set for February 26, 2025.
Simple Explanation
The government group that looks after how money trades are made wants more time to think about a change in the rules for how trades are reported. They now have until the end of February to make a decision.
