SIFMA, the Investment Company Institute (ICI), and Managed Funds Association (MFA) (collectively, the associations) wrote a letter to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in support of efforts to improve the transparency of the equity markets.

Additionally, the associations prepared an order routing disclosure template for the minimum disclosure of order routing and execution quality information that institutional investors could request from their broker-dealers.

The associations hope the template will inform any potential rulemaking by the SEC staff as it prepares a recommendation for a rule that would require, upon institutional investor request, disclosure of useful, reliable, and uniformly available customer-specific order routing information.
