    Form ABS-15G, OMB Control No. 3235-0675, SEC File No. 270-620.


[[Page 863]]


    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 (``Commission'') is soliciting comments on the collection of 
information summarized below. The Commission plans to submit this 
existing collection of information to the Office of Management and 
Budget (``OMB'') for extension and approval.
    Form ABS-15G (17 CFR 249.1300) is used for reports of information 
required under Rule 15Ga-1 (17 CFR 240.15Ga-1) of the Exchange Act of 
1934 (``Exchange Act''). Exchange Act Rule 15Ga-1 requires asset-backed 
securitizers to provide disclosure regarding fulfilled and unfulfilled 
repurchase requests with respect to asset-backed securities. The 
purpose of the information collected on Form ABS-15G is to implement 
the disclosure requirements of Section 943 of the Dodd-Frank Wall 
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act to provide information 
regarding the use of representations and warranties in the asset-backed 
securities markets. We estimate that approximately 810 securitizers 
will file Form ABS-15G annually at estimated 311.223 burden hours per 
response. In addition, we estimate that 75% of the 311.223 hours per 
response (233.417 hours) is carried internally by the securitizers for 
a total annual reporting burden of 189,068 hours (233.417 hours per 
response x 810 responses).
    Written comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
the functions of the agency, including whether the information will 
have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of 
the burden imposed by the collection of information; (c) ways to 
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information collected; 
and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology. Consideration will 
be given to comments and suggestions submitted in writing within 60 
days of this publication.
    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.
    Please direct your written comment to Thomas Bayer, Director/Chief 
Information Officer, Securities and Exchange Commission, c/o Remi 
Pavlik-Simon, 100 F Street NE., Washington, DC 20549 or send an email 
to: PRA_Mailbox@sec.gov.

    Dated: December 31, 2013.
Elizabeth M. Murphy,
 Secretary.
