Federal Register / Vol. 71, No. 194 / Friday, October 6, 2006 / Notices
the FFIEC 030 have been approved by
the FFIEC as originally proposed and
are summarized below. The agencies
will implement the changes as of the
December 31, 2006, reporting date.
Listing of Revisions
cprice-sewell on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES
A. Revisions to the FFIEC 030
The agencies will reduce reporting
burden by eliminating five reporting
items for branches with total assets in
excess of $250 million because the
aggregate amounts reported in these
items have declined substantially to a
nominal amount. The five items being
eliminated are:
• Asset item 6.d, ‘‘Loans to foreign
governments and official institutions.’’
Amounts will be included in current
item 6.e, ‘‘Loans and lease financing
receivables: To all others.’’
• Asset item 7, ‘‘Customers’’ liability
to this bank on acceptances
outstanding.’’ Amounts will be included
in current item 13, ‘‘Other assets.’’
• Asset item 9, ‘‘Accrued interest
receivable.’’ Amounts will be included
in current item 13, ‘‘Other assets.’’
• Liability item 19, ‘‘Bank’s liability
on acceptances executed and
outstanding.’’ Amounts will be included
in current item 24, ‘‘Other liabilities.’’
• Liability item 20, ‘‘Accrued taxes
and other expenses.’’ Amounts will be
included in current item 24, ‘‘Other
liabilities.’’
B. Implementation of the FFIEC 030S
The agencies are creating an
abbreviated or ‘‘short’’ report (FFIEC
030S) containing five items that
branches with total assets between $50
million and $250 million will file on an
annual basis in lieu of the FFIEC 030
form. The scope of the FFIEC 030S is
comparable to a report filed with the
Federal Reserve by U.S. banking
organizations for their foreign
subsidiaries.1 The items for this report
are considered the minimum
information needed to serve as
indicators of higher business volume,
risk, and complexity in small-sized
foreign branches. The reported
information will also be used to monitor
potential developments that may pose
risks to the overall operations of the
parent bank. The items for the FFIEC
030S are:
• Gross due from related institutions
(a combination of current FFIEC 030
asset items 11 and 12)
• Total assets (current FFIEC 030
asset item 14)
1 Abbreviated Financial Statements of Foreign
Subsidiaries of U.S. Banking Organizations (FR
2314S; OMB No. 7100–0073), filed for subsidiaries
with assets between $50 million and $250 million.

Jkt 211001
• Gross due to related institutions (a
combination of current FFIEC 030
liability items 22 and 23)
• Total gross notional amount of
derivative contracts (a combination of
current FFIEC 030 derivative items 26,
27, 28, and 31)
• Commercial and similar letters of
credit, standby letters of credit, and
foreign office guarantees (a combination
of current FFIEC 030 off-balance sheet
items 29 and 30)
C. Exempt Entities
The agencies will exempt foreign
branches with total assets below $50
million from both the FFIEC 030 and
FFIEC 030S annual filing requirements.

collections are necessary for the
agencies’ duties and responsibilities,

practical utility;
b. The accuracy of the agencies’
estimates of the burden of 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 the
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 the
