SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposal to extend for three years without revision the following currently approved collections of informations: 1. Report Title: Report of Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks Form Number: FFIEC 002 OMB Number: 7100–0032 Fequency of Response: Quarterly Affected Public: U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks Number of Respondents: 275 Estimated Time per Response: 22.75 hours Estimated Total Annual Burden: 25,025 hours General Description of Report: This information collection is mandatory: 12 U.S.C. 3105(b)(2), 1817(a)(1) and (3), and 3102(b). Except for select sensitive items, this information collection is not given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)]. Abstract: On a quarterly basis, all U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks (U.S. branches) are required to file detailed schedules of assets and liabilities in the form of a condition report and a variety of supporting schedules. This information is used to fulfill the supervisory and regulatory requirements of the International Banking Act of 1978. The data are also used to augment the bank credit, loan, and deposit information needed for monetary policy and other public policy purposes. The Federal Reserve System collects and processes this report on behalf of all three agencies. 2. Report Title: Report of Assets and Liabilities of a Non–U.S. Branch that is Managed or Controlled by a U.S. Branch or Agency of a Foreign (Non–U.S.) Bank Form Number: FFIEC 002S OMB Number: 7100–0273 Frequency of Response: Quarterly Affected Public: U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks Estimated Number of Respondents: 74 Estimated Time per Response: 6 hours Estimated Total Annual Burden: 1,776 hours General Description of Report: This information collection is mandatory: 12 U.S.C. 3105(b)(2), 1817(a)(1) and (3), and 3102(b) and is given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)]. Abstract: On a quarterly basis, all U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks are required to file detailed schedules of their assets and liabilities in the form FFIEC 002. The FFIEC 002S is a separate supplement to the FFIEC 002 that VerDate jul<14>2003 15:00 Mar 01, 2005 Jkt 205001 collects information on assets and liabilities of any non–U.S. branch that is ‘‘managed or controlled’’ by a U.S. branch or agency of the foreign bank. Managed or controlled means that a majority of the responsibility for business decisions, including but not limited to decisions with regard to lending or asset management or funding or liability management, or the responsibility for recordkeeping in respect of assets or liabilities for that foreign branch resides at the U.S. branch or agency. A separate FFIEC 002S must be completed for each managed or controlled non–U.S. branch. The FFIEC 002S must be filed quarterly along with the U.S. branch’s or agency’s FFIEC 002. The data are used for: (1) monitoring deposit and credit transactions of U.S. residents; (2) monitoring the impact of policy changes; (3) analyzing structural issues concerning foreign bank activity in U.S. markets; (4) understanding flows of banking funds and indebtedness of developing countries in connection with data collected by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) that are used in economic analysis; and (5) assisting in the supervision of U.S. offices of foreign banks, which often are managed jointly with these branches. Request for Comment Comments are invited on: a. Whether the information collections are necessary for the proper performance of the agencies’ functions, including whether the information has practical utility; b. The accuracy of the agencies’ estimates of the burden of the information collections, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; c. Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; d. Ways to minimize the burden of information collections on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and e. Estimates of capital or start up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be shared among the agencies. All comments will become a matter of public record. Written comments should address the accuracy of the burden estimates and ways to minimize burden including the use of automated collection techniques or the use of other forms of information technology as well as other relevant PO 00000 Frm 00025 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10095 aspects of the information collection request.
