APPENDIX 663 (XVIh) The following provisions of the Stock Exchange Consti- ution (Rules, Chapter XV) cover periodic examination of securities held in safekeeping by Stock Exchange firms: Sec. 2. Members of the Exchange and firms registered thereon carrying margin accounts for customers shall, as of the date of their answer to each questionnaire, cause to be made a complete audit of their accounts and assets, including securities held for safekeeping, in accordance with such regula- tions as shail be prescribed by the Committee on Business Conduct, and shall file with said Committee a statement to the effect that such audit has been made and whether it is in accord with the answers to the questionnaire. Such statement shall, in the case of each member of the Exchange not a member of a registered firm, be signed by such member of the Exchange, and in the case of each registered firm shall be signed by each member of such firm unless, for good cause shown, the signature of one or more mem- hers is waived by the Committee on Business Conduct. Such statement shall in all cases be attested by the auditors, and the original report of the audit, signed by the auditors, shall be retained as part of the books and records of the member or firm. Sec. 3. Each member of the Exchange and firm registered thereon, not carrying margin accounts for customers, shall, at least once a year and whenever called upon so to do by the Committee on Business Conduct, ceport to said Committee whether such member or firm holds securities for safekeeping. Each of such members or firms holding securities for safe- keeping shall, at least once in each year, file with the Committee on Busi- ress Conduct a statement that all securities held for safekeeping have been -hecked and found to be intact, which statement shall also show in what manner the verification of the securities has been made and the date thereof.
