SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION

[OMB Control No. 3235-0628]

Agency Information Collection Activities; Proposed Collection;

Comment Request; Extension: Rule 17g-2

Upon Written Request, Copies Available From: Securities and Exchange

Commission, Office of FOIA Services, 100 F Street NE, Washington, DC

20549-2736

Notice is hereby given that, pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), the Securities and Exchange

Commission (SEC or ``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the

proposed collection of information. Rule 17g-2 requires NRSROs to make

and retain certain records relating to their business and to retain

certain other business records if made. The rule also prescribes the

time periods and manner in which the records must be retained.

Currently, there are 11 credit rating agencies registered as NRSROs

with the Commission. Based on staff experience, the Commission

estimates that the ongoing annual burden for respondents to comply with

Rule 17g-2 is 3,883 hours.

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.

Written comments are invited on: (a) whether this proposed

collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of

the functions of the SEC, including whether the information will have

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the SEC's estimate of the burden

imposed by the proposed collection of information, including the

validity of the methodology and the assumptions used; (c) ways to

enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of

information on respondents, including through the use of automated,

electronic collection techniques or other forms of information

technology.

Please direct your written comments on this 60-Day Collection

Notice to Austin Gerig, Director/Chief Data Officer, Securities and

Exchange Commission, c/o Tanya Ruttenberg via email to

[email protected] by August 7, 2026. There will be a second

opportunity to comment on this SEC request following the Federal

Register publishing a 30-Day Submission Notice.

Dated: June 4, 2026.

Sherry R. Haywood,

Assistant Secretary.
