Trading Halts When ETP NAV Not Disseminated
Proposed Rule 7.18(c)(2) would require NYSE Chicago to halt trading in a listed ETP if the Net Asset Value (NAV) or, for certain products, the Disclosed Portfolio is not being disseminated to all market participants at the same time. The proposed rule change was filed March 10, 2025 and published March 18, 2025.
NYSE Chicago to List Many ETP Types
The Exchange proposes to allow many more kinds of Exchange-Traded Products (ETPs) to be listed and traded on NYSE Chicago by adopting listing standards based on NYSE Arca. The filing to permit these listings was submitted on March 10, 2025 and was noticed in the Federal Register on March 18, 2025.
ETFs Added to UTP Derivative Definition
The Exchange proposes to amend Rule 1.1 to add Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) Shares listed pursuant to specified rules of NYSE Arca, NYSE, Cboe BZX, and Nasdaq to the definition of "UTP Derivative Securities Product." This change was filed March 10, 2025 and published in the Federal Register on March 18, 2025.
Firewalls and Procedures to Protect Index/Portfolio Information
The proposed rules require funds, index maintainers, and related persons to establish and maintain a "firewall" and procedures to prevent misuse or dissemination of material non-public information about index changes or fund portfolios. The Exchange cites the Rule 6c-11 Release and existing federal securities-law requirements in support of these measures.
