Rule Filings

From time to time, the CHX’s Board of Directors and its Executive Committee approve changes to the CHX rules or to the CHX’s bylaws and certificate of incorporation. The CHX then files these rule change proposals with the Securities and Exchange Commission, following the requirements set out in SEC Rule 19b-4. Some of these rule changes take effect immediately; others must be put out for public comment and approved by the Commission before they can be implemented.

The rule change proposals submitted by the CHX to the Commission are set out below.  When rule changes are approved or otherwise become effective, the changes typically are reflected in the on-line version of the CHX’s rules and announced in the Exchange’s weekly bulletin, which is distributed to participant firms.  (The weekly bulletins are also available in the Market Regulation section of the CHX’s website). The SEC’s proposing releases and approval orders for CHX rulemaking initiatives can be found at http://www.sec.gov/rules/sro/chx.shtml.
