Statement Of SEC Commissioner Michael S. Piwowar At Open Meeting Regarding The Consolidated Audit Trail NMS Plan

Date 27/04/2016

I am happy to support the publication of the NMS Plan filed pursuant to Rule 613 (the “Plan”), which would create, implement, and maintain a consolidated audit trail (“CAT”), as well as the related economic analysis.  I want to commend the Staff for your doggedness in pursuit of the CAT.  You have toiled over the proposal, the final rule, the selection plan, an exemptive request, and now the Plan itself.  At this phase of the process, members of the Division of Economic and Risk Analysis deserve the lion’s share of praise; their task was substantial, since an economic analysis was deferred until now.  But, as with any Commission action, Staff members in various divisions and offices have contributed to a strong recommendation.  Thanks to you all.
