Federal Cost: $64,801.80 ($51.43 × 630 × 2). Authority for Information Collection: Sections 231, 234(a), 239(d), and 240A of the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, as amended. Abstract (Needs and Uses): The information provided in the OPIC–129 is used by OPIC as a part of the Character Risk Due Diligence/ background check procedure (similar to a commercial bank’s Know Your Customer procedure) that it performs on each party that has a significant relationship (10% or more beneficial ownership, provision of significant credit support, significant managerial relationship) to the projects that OPIC finances. The only change being made is to adjust the threshold from 5% to 10% in order to make OPIC’s due diligence process more efficient and less resource intensive without significantly increasing the reputational and project risks associated with OPIC transactions.
