I am a foreign individual retail investor and would like to express my opinion regarding this new proposed rule SR-NSCC-2021-801. I believe this rule - if enacted- is a step in the right direction towards accountability for those who engage in the short selling/stock borrowing program. It is time for an update to the current RegSHO closeout requirements and I believe that this SLD change in process from Monthly to Daily settlement is good progress. I would like to see this rule passed and implemented immediately. Lastly on this ruling, I would like to see stronger penalties enacted for non compliance and violation of this rule. I believe failures to deliver and the systematic use of synthetic shares is tantamount to fraud. Thank you for your time & consideration in this matter. Sincerely, a concerned foreign retail investor. -Även Tyr
