Download as PDF 59112 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. VerDate Aug<31>2005 14:52 Oct 05, 2006 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. Request for Comment Comments are invited on: a. Whether the information collections are necessary for the agencies’ duties and responsibilities, 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 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 requested 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 aspects of the information collection request.
