DEPARTMENT OF THE TREASURY
Office of Thrift Supervision
Submission for OMB Review;
Comment Request—Thrift Financial
Report: Schedules SC, SO, VA, PD, LD,
CC, CF, DI, SI, FV, FS, HC, CSS, and
CCR
AGENCY: Office of Thrift Supervision
(OTS), Treasury.
ACTION: Notice and request for comment.
SUMMARY: In accordance with the
requirements of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507),
OTS may not conduct or sponsor, and
the respondent is not required to
respond to, an information collection
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. On October 1, 2008,
OTS requested public comment for 60
days (73 FR 57205) on a proposal to
extend, with revisions, the Thrift
Financial Report (TFR), which is
currently an approved collection of
information. The notice described
regulatory reporting revisions proposed
for the TFR, Schedule SC—Consolidated
Statement of Condition, Schedule SO—
Consolidated Statement of Operations,
Schedule VA—Consolidated Valuation
Allowances and Related Data, Schedule
PD—Consolidated Past Due and
Nonaccrual, Schedule LD—Loan Data,
Schedule CC—Consolidated
Commitments and Contingencies,
Schedule CF—Consolidated Cash Flow
Information, Schedule DI—Consolidated
Deposit Information, Schedule SI—
Supplemental Information, Schedule
FS—Fiduciary and Related Services,
Schedule HC—Thrift Holding Company,
Schedule CSS—Subordinate
Organization Schedule, and Schedule
CCR—Consolidated Capital
Requirement, and on a proposed new
schedule, Schedule FV—Consolidated
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair
Value on a Recurring Basis. The changes
were proposed on a phased-in basis over
2009.
The revisions would eliminate 3 lines
from the TFR, eliminate Schedule CSS
in its entirety, revise 24 existing items,
add 240 new items (including a new
Schedule FV), and eliminate
confidential treatment of Schedule FS
and Schedule HC data.
After considering the comments
received on the proposal, OTS has
adopted most of the proposed revisions,
with limited exceptions in response to
certain comments, on the phased-in
basis that had been proposed. OTS
continues to evaluate certain other
proposed revisions in light of the
comments received thereon and will not

implement these revisions on their
proposed effective dates. OTS is
submitting the adopted revisions to
OMB for review and approval.
DATES: Submit written comments on or
before March 6, 2009. The regulatory
reporting revisions described herein
take effect on a phased-in basis on
March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009, and
December 31, 2009.

types of activities or transactions to
which the proposed changes apply. OTS
estimates that implementation of these
reporting changes will result in a small
increase in the current reporting burden
imposed by the TFR. The following
burden estimates include the effect of
the proposed revisions.
Title: Thrift Financial Report.
OMB Number: 1550–0023.
Form Number: OTS 1313.
Statutory Requirement: 12 U.S.C.
1464(v) imposes reporting requirements
for savings associations. Except for
selected items, these information
collections are not given confidential
treatment.
Type of Review: Revision of currently
approved collections.
Affected Public: Savings associations.
Estimated Number of Respondents
and Recordkeepers: 811.
Estimated Burden Hours per
Respondent: 54.68 burden hours on
average.
Estimated Frequency of Response:
Quarterly.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
177,398 burden hours.
Abstract: All OTS-regulated savings
associations must comply with the
information collections described in this
notice. OTS collects this information
each calendar quarter or less frequently
if so stated. OTS uses this information
to monitor the condition, performance,
and risk profile of individual
institutions and systemic risk among
groups of institutions and the industry
as a whole. Except for selected items,
these information collections are not
given confidential treatment.
I. Background
OTS last revised the form and content
of the TFR in a manner that significantly
affected a substantial percentage of
institutions in March 2007. Revisions
since March 2007 focused on specific
activities and were primarily made in
response to changes in generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP).
These focused revisions meant that the
new or revised TFR items were minor or
applicable to only a small percentage of
institutions.
During the past year OTS has
evaluated its ongoing information
needs. OTS recognizes that the TFR
imposes reporting requirements, which
are a component of the regulatory
burden facing institutions. Another
contributor to this regulatory burden is
the examination process, particularly
on-site examinations during which
institution staff spend time and effort
responding to inquiries and requests for
information designed to assist
examiners in evaluating the condition
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
and risk profile of the institution. The
amount of attention that examiners
direct to risk areas of the institution
under examination is, in large part,
determined from TFR data. These data,
and analytical reports including the
Uniform Thrift Performance Report,
assist examiners in scoping and making
their preliminary assessments of risks
during the planning phase of the
examination.
A risk-focused review of the
information from an institution’s TFR
allows examiners to make preliminary
risk assessments prior to on-site work.
The degree of perceived risk determines
the extent of the examination
procedures that examiners initially plan
for each risk area. If the outcome of
these procedures reveals a higher level
of risk in a particular area, the examiner
adjusts the examination scope and
procedures accordingly.
TFR data are also a vital source of
information for the monitoring and
regulatory activities of OTS. Among
their benefits, these activities aid in
determining whether the frequency of
an institution’s examination cycle
should remain at maximum allowed
time intervals, thereby lessening overall
regulatory burden. More risk-focused
TFR data enhance the ability of OTS to
assess whether an institution is
experiencing changes in its risk profile
that warrant immediate follow-up,
which may include accelerating the
timing of an on-site examination.
In developing this proposal, OTS
considered a range of potential
information needs, particularly in the
areas of credit risk, liquidity, and
liabilities, and identified those
additions to the TFR that are most
critical and relevant to OTS in fulfilling
its supervisory responsibilities. At the
same time, OTS identified certain
existing TFR line items that are no
longer sufficiently critical or useful to
warrant their continued collection. OTS
recognizes that the reporting burden
that would result from the addition to
the TFR of the new items discussed in
this proposal would not be fully offset
by the proposed elimination of, or
establishment of reporting thresholds
for, a limited number of other TFR
items, thereby resulting in a net increase
in reporting burden. After savings
associations make any necessary
changes to their systems and records,
OTS estimated that these reporting
changes would produce an average net
increase of 2.0 hours per institution per
year in the ongoing reporting burden of
the TFR. Nevertheless, when viewing
these proposed revisions to the TFR
within a larger context, they are
intended to maintain the effectiveness
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
of the on- and off-site supervision
activities of the OTS, which should help
to control the overall regulatory burden
on institutions.
II. Current Actions
On October 1, 2008, OTS requested
comment on proposed revisions to the
Thrift Financial Report (73 FR 57205).
The proposed changes were to be
implemented on a phased-in basis
during 2009. A limited group of changes
was proposed to take effect March 31,
2009; most revisions were proposed to
take effect June 30, 2009; and a final
group of revisions was proposed to take
effect December 31, 2009.1
OTS received one comment letter on
the proposed revisions from a trade
group representing banks and savings
associations of all sizes. The trade group
noted the added burden the proposed
revisions would place on institutions
filing the TFR and asked that OTS adopt
only those changes essential to its
mission. The trade group commented on
a reporting issue that was not addressed
in the original proposal and
recommended a revision requiring
institutions to report ‘‘reciprocal
deposits’’ 2 separately from brokered
deposits. OTS will consider this
recommendation concerning reciprocal
deposits when it next assesses the need
and basis for possible future revisions to
the TFR. This commenter also
commented on the reporting of sweep
accounts from other institutions,
including affiliated institutions, noting
that the TFR may need to be revised
1 In addition, on November 26, 2008, OMB
approved the Federal banking agencies’ joint
emergency clearance requests to add two items to
Call Report Schedule RC–O, Other Data for Deposit
Insurance and FICO Assessments, and to TFR
Schedule DI—Consolidated Deposit Information—
that are effective December 31, 2008, and that are
applicable to all institutions participating in the
FDIC’s Transaction Account Guarantee Program. A
participating institution must report the amount
and number of its noninterest-bearing transaction
accounts, as defined in the FDIC’s regulations
governing the program, of more than $250,000 in
Call Report Schedule RC–O, Memorandum items
4.a and 4.b, or in TFR Schedule DI, lines DI570 and
DI575. The FDIC will use this information to
calculate assessments for participants in the
Transaction Account Guarantee Program. Because
OMB’s approval of the agencies’ emergency
clearance request expires on May 31, 2009, the
agencies proposed on December 23, 2008, under
OMB’s normal clearance procedures to collect these
two items each quarter until the Transaction
Account Guarantee Program ends. See 73 FR 78794.
2 The trade group also recommended that
‘‘reciprocal deposit’’ be defined as a deposit
‘‘obtained when an insured depository institution
exchanges funds, dollar-for-dollar, with members of
a network of other insured depository institutions,
where each member of the network sets the interest
rate to be paid on the entire amount of funds it
places with other network members, and all funds
placed through the network are fully insured by the
FDIC.’’
PO 00000
Frm 00076
Fmt 4703

depending on the resolution of how
such accounts are treated for deposit
insurance assessment purposes.
After considering the comments
received on the proposal, OTS has
decided to move forward with most of
the reporting changes, with limited
modifications in response to certain
comments, on the phased-in basis that
had been proposed. Sections III, IV, and
V of this notice identify the changes
proposed to take effect March 31, June
30, and December 31, 2009,
respectively; and discuss the comments
received on the proposed TFR revisions
that OTS has decided to implement, as
modified.
OTS recognizes institutions’ need for
lead time to prepare for reporting
changes, and thus proposed the phasedin implementation schedule for 2009.
TFR items that will be new or revised
effective March 31, 2009, are limited in
number and most are linked to changes
in generally accepted accounting
principles taking effect at the same time.
For the March 31, 2009, report date,
thrifts may provide reasonable estimates
for any new or revised TFR item
initially required to be reported as of
that date for which the requested
information is not readily available.
This same policy on the use of
reasonable estimates will apply to the
reporting of other new or revised items
when they are first implemented
effective June 30 and December 31,
2009. The specific wording of the
captions for the new or revised TFR line
items discussed in this notice and the
numbering of these items should be
regarded as preliminary.
III. TFR Revisions Proposed for March
2009
OTS received no comments on
revisions proposed in response to
accounting changes applicable to
noncontrolling (minority) interests in
consolidated subsidiaries; and to a
reporting addition for other-thantemporary impairment charges on debt
and equity securities. Therefore, these
revisions will be implemented in March
2009 as proposed.
A. Background
In December 2007, the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 160, ‘‘Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial
Statements’’ (FAS 160). Under this
Statement, a noncontrolling interest,
formerly referred to as a minority
interest, is that portion of total
stockholders’ equity and total net
income or loss that is not attributable,
directly or indirectly, to the parent; that
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
6088
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
is, to the controlling interest. FAS 160
changes the placement of the
noncontrolling interest on the balance
sheet and income statement. For savings
associations and holding companies
with a calendar year-end, the Statement
becomes effective in the first quarter of
2009. Accordingly, OTS proposes to
make certain changes to Schedules SC,
SO, HC, and CCR.
B. Elimination of Existing Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS
160 (see Background above), OTS will
eliminate line CCR190, Minority Interest
in Includable Subsidiaries.
C. Revision of Existing Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS
160 (see Background above), OTS will
revise the captions of lines SC80 from
‘‘Total Equity Capital’’ to ‘‘Total Savings
Association Equity Capital’’, SC800
from ‘‘Minority Interest’’ to
‘‘Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Subsidiaries’’, SC90 from
‘‘Total Liabilities, Minority Interest, and
Equity Capital’’ to ‘‘Total Liabilities and
Equity Capital’’, SO 91 from ‘‘Net
Income (Loss)’’ to ‘‘Net Income (Loss)
Attributable to Savings Association’’,
HC620 from ‘‘Minority Interest’’ to
‘‘Noncontrolling Interests in
Consolidated Subsidiaries’’, HC640 from
‘‘Consolidated Net Income for the
Quarter’’ to ‘‘Consolidated Net Income
(Loss) Attributable to Holding
Company’’, CCR100 from ‘‘Total Equity
Capital (SC80)’’ to ‘‘Total Equity Capital
(SC84)’’, and CCR105 from ‘‘Minority
Interest in Nonincludable Subsidiaries’’
to ‘‘Investments in, Advances to, and
Noncontrolling Interests in
Nonincludable Subsidiaries’’.
D. New Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS
160 (see Background above), OTS
proposes to add lines SC84, Total Equity
Capital; SO88, Net Income (Loss)
Attributable to Savings Association and
Noncontrolling Interests; SO880, Net
Income (Loss) Attributable to
Noncontrolling Interests; and HC635,
Consolidated Net Income (Loss)
Attributable to Holding Company and
Noncontrolling Interests.
2. To separately capture impairment
charges on debt and equity securities,
OTS proposes to add line SO441, Otherthan-Temporary Impairment Charges on
Debt and Equity Securities.
E. Eliminating Confidential Treatment
of Schedule FS and Schedule HC Data
OTS has, to this point, provided
confidential treatment to some of the
information that certain institutions
report in Schedule FS—Fiduciary and
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
Related Services, on fiduciary and
related services income, settlements,
surcharges and other losses reported on
lines FS310 through FS35, and FS710
through FS70. OTS also accords
confidential treatment to all of the
information that certain institutions
report in Schedule HC—Thrift Holding
Company.
An important public policy issue for
the federal banking regulatory agencies
has been how to use market discipline
to complement supervisory resources.
Market discipline relies on market
participants having sufficient
appropriate information about the
financial condition and risks of banks,
thrifts, and their holding companies.
The TFR is widely used by securities
analysts, rating agencies, and large
institutional investors as sources of
thrift-specific data. Disclosure that
increases transparency should lead to
more accurate market assessments of
individual banks’ performance and
risks. This, in turn, should result in
more effective market discipline on
thrifts. For these reasons, we proposed
eliminating the confidential treatment of
data reported on schedules FS and HC.
1. Eliminating Confidential Treatment of
Schedule FS Data
The trade group commenting on the
proposed revisions opposed eliminating
the confidential treatment of fiduciary
income and loss data, stating that the
agencies’ original reason for according
confidential treatment to these data, i.e.,
that these data generally pertain to only
a portion of a reporting institution’s
total operations and not to the
institution as a whole, still holds true.
This commenter also cited significant
competitive concerns with the proposed
elimination of confidential treatment
because making income and loss data
publicly available ‘‘may make it
possible for competitors to deduce’’ an
individual institution’s fee schedules. In
addition, this commenter believed that
these publicly disclosed data may be
subject to misinterpretation by market
participants who would lack a proper
understanding of the scope of the
income and loss data reported in
Schedule FS because fiduciary income
and loss data are presented differently
in institutions’ audited financial
statements prepared in accordance with
GAAP. Therefore, this commenter
believes that institutions’ financial
statements can satisfy market
participants’ needs for fiduciary income
and loss data. Finally, this commenter
stated that market participants may be
confused or misled by the fiduciary
income and loss information because
they would be unable to determine the
PO 00000
Frm 00077
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
source or specific fiduciary activity
giving rise to the income or loss.
Data on fiduciary and related services
income and losses is treated as
confidential on an individual institution
basis. Nevertheless, OTS publishes
aggregate data derived from these
confidential items. OTS does not
preclude institutions from publicly
disclosing the fiduciary and related
services income and loss data that the
agencies treat as confidential.
In addition, under the Uniform
Interagency Trust Rating System, the
agencies assign a rating to the earnings
of an institution’s fiduciary activities at
those institutions with fiduciary assets
of more than $100 million, which are
also the institutions that report their
fiduciary and related services income
and losses in Call Report Schedule RC–
T and TFR Schedule FS. The agencies’
evaluation of an institution’s trust
earnings considers such factors as the
profitability of fiduciary activities in
relation to the size and scope of those
activities and the institution’s overall
business, taking this into account by
functions and product lines. Although
the agencies’ ratings for individual
institutions are not publicly available,
the reason for rating the trust earnings
of institutions with more than $100
million in fiduciary assets—its effect on
the financial condition of the
institution—means that fiduciary and
related services income and loss
information for these institutions is also
relevant to market participants and
others in the public as they seek to
evaluate the financial condition and
performance of individual institutions.
Increasing the transparency of
institutions’ fiduciary activities by
making individual institutions’
fiduciary income and loss data available
to the public should improve the
market’s ability to assess these
institutions’ performance and risks and
thereby enhance market discipline.
Although the fiduciary income and
loss data currently reported in Schedule
FS and afforded confidential treatment
apply only to a portion of an institution
rather than an entire institution, all
other data collected in Schedule FS of
the TFR is publicly available, even
when the data relates only to portions
of an institution’s activities.
OTS continues to believe that the
benefit of increased transparency from
the full disclosure of fiduciary income
and loss data will improve market
discipline by enhancing the market’s
ability to assess institution-specific
performance and risks. After carefully
considering the comments on the public
availability of fiduciary income and loss
data reported in Schedule FS, OTS is
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
adopting the proposal to eliminate the
confidential treatment of such data
beginning with the data reported as of
March 31, 2009.
2. Eliminating Confidential Treatment of
Schedule HC Data
The trade group commenting on the
proposed revisions recommended a
bifurcated approach to eliminating the
confidential treatment of Schedule HC
data filed by holding companies. The
commenter felt that eliminating
confidential treatment of Schedule HC
data is appropriate for publicly-held
thrift holding companies, but should not
be eliminated for privately-held thrift
holding companies. However, many
public requests are received for these
data. In addition, some rating agencies
have indicated thrift holding company
debt ratings suffer due to the lack of
publicly available data. Additionally,
Federal Reserve Board Schedule Y–9
filed by bank holding companies is
publicly available on consolidated and
unconsolidated bases for both publicly
and privately owned bank holding
companies. It is reasonable that OTS
should be consistent with the FRB’s
treatment of holding company financial
information.
Thus, after carefully considering the
comments on the public availability of
Schedule HC data, OTS is adopting the
proposal to eliminate the confidential
treatment of such data beginning with
the data reported as of March 31, 2009.
IV. TFR Revisions Proposed for June
2009
OTS received no comments related to
the following revisions proposed to be
effective as of June 2009. Accordingly,
these revisions are adopted as proposed.
A. Elimination of Existing Items
1. Schedule SI—Consolidated
Supplemental Information
SI805, Do you sell private-label or
third-party mutual funds and
annuities?; and
SI860, Fee Income from the Sale and
Servicing of Mutual Funds and
Annuities.
Line SI805 is a yes/no question
regarding the sale of private label or
third party mutual funds and annuities.
Line SI860 reports the amount of fee
income from the sale and servicing of
mutual funds and annuities. Institutions
that provided a yes response to line
SI805 will now provide the same
response to new line SI910. OTS
believes the data reported in line SI860
can be collected independently of the
TFR reporting system during the
examination process.
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
B. Revisions of Existing Items
1. Revising the caption for line SO430
from ‘‘Noninterest Income—Net Income
(Loss) from Other—Sale of Assets Held
for Sale and Available-for-Sale
Securities’’ to ‘‘Noninterest Income—
Net Income (Loss) from Other—Sale of
Available-for-Sale Securities’’ to
separately report gains and losses on the
sale of available-for-sale securities from
gains and losses on loans and leases
held for sale and on other assets held for
sale. Gains and losses on loans and
leases held for sale and on other assets
held for sale would be reported in new
lines SO431 and SO432 described
below; and
2. Revising the language for question
HC840 from ‘‘Is the holding company or
any of its subsidiaries regulated by a
foreign financial services regulator?’’ to
‘‘Is the holding company or any of its
affiliates conducting operations outside
of the U.S. through a foreign branch or
subsidiary?’’ This line is being revised
to more fully identify holding
companies with foreign operations,
including parallel banking operations. A
parallel banking organization exists
when at least one U.S. bank and one
foreign financial institution are
controlled either directly or indirectly
by the same person or group of persons
who are closely associated in their
business dealings or otherwise acting
together, but are not subject to
consolidated supervision by a single
home country supervisor. A foreign
financial institution includes a holding
company of the foreign bank and any
U.S. or foreign affiliates of the foreign
bank.
C. New Items
1. Noninterest Income
OTS proposes to add two lines related
to gains and losses on the sale of loans
and leases held for sale and on other
assets held for sale:
SO431, Noninterest Income—Net
Income (Loss) from Other—Sale of
Loans and Leases Held for Sale; and
SO432, Noninterest Income—Net
Income (Loss) from Other—Sale of
Other Assets Held for Sale.
These new lines, in conjunction with
the revised line SO430 described above,
will allow thrifts to separately report
gains and losses on the sale of availablefor-sale securities, on loans and leases
held for sale, and on other assets held
for sale.
2. Loans in Process of Foreclosure
OTS proposes to add a series of eight
lines to Schedule PD related to loans in
the process of foreclosure:
PO 00000
Frm 00078
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6089
PD40, Total Loans in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD415, Construction Loans in Process

PD421, 1–4 Dwelling Units Secured
by Revolving Open-End Loans in
Process of Foreclosure;
PD423, 1–4 Dwelling Units Secured
by First Liens in Process of Foreclosure;
PD424, 1–4 Dwelling Units Secured
by Junior Liens in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD425, Multifamily (5 or more)
Dwelling Units in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD435, Nonresidential Property
(Except Land) in Process of Foreclosure;
and
PD438, Land Loans in Process of
Foreclosure.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on the
various types of real estate loans in the
process of foreclosure. With these new
data items, OTS will be better able to
monitor the asset quality and risk
profiles of thrifts.
Thrifts would report total unpaid
principal balance of loans secured by
the various types of real estate for which
formal foreclosure proceedings to seize
the real estate collateral have started
and are ongoing as of quarter-end,
regardless of the date the foreclosure
procedure was initiated. Loans would
be classified as in process of foreclosure
according to local requirements.
3. Construction Loans With Capitalized
Interest
OTS proposes to add a series of six
lines to Schedule LD related to
construction loans with capitalized
interest:
LD710, Construction Loans on 1—4
Dwelling Units with Capitalized
Interest;
LD715, Capitalized Interest on
Construction Loans on 1—4 Dwelling
Units Included in Current Quarter
Income;
LD720, Construction Loans on
Multifamily (5 or More) Dwelling Units
with Capitalized Interest;
LD725, Capitalized Interest on
Construction Loans on Multifamily (5 or
More) Dwelling Units Included in
Current Quarter Income;
LD730, Construction Loans on
Nonresidential Property (Except Land)
with Capitalized Interest; and
LD735, Capitalized Interest on
Construction Loans on Nonresidential
Property (Except Land) Included in
Current Quarter Income.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on the use
of capitalized interest in connection
with various types of construction

loans. With these new data items, OTS
will be better able to monitor the risk
profiles of thrifts with concentrations of
construction loans.
4. Collateralized Debt Obligations,
Collateralized Loan Obligations, and
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities
(CMBSs)
OTS proposes to add a series of six
lines to Schedule LD to provide
additional reporting detail on
collateralized debt obligations (CDOs),
collateralized loan obligations (CLOs),
and commercial mortgage-backed
securities (CMBSs):
LD750, Collateralized Debt
Obligations: Carrying Value;
LD755, Collateralized Debt
Obligations: Market Value;
LD760, Collateralized Loan
Obligations: Carrying Value;
LD765, Collateralized Loan
Obligations: Market Value;
LD770, Commercial Mortgage-Backed
Securities: Carrying Value; and
LD775, Commercial Mortgage-Backed
Securities: Market Value.
CDOs are a type of asset-backed
security and structured credit product.
CDOs are constructed from a portfolio of
fixed-income assets that are pooled
together and passed on to different
classes of owners.
CLOs are a type of asset-backed
security and structured credit product.
CLOs are structured from a portfolio of
nonmortgage business loans that are
pooled together and passed on to
different classes of owners.
CMBSs are a type of asset-backed
security and structured credit product.
CMBSs are structured from a portfolio of
commercial mortgage loans that are
pooled together and passed on to
different classes of owners.
5. Recourse Obligations on Loans in
Line CC468
OTS proposes to add two lines to
Schedule CC related to recourse
obligations on loans in CC468, Amount
of Recourse Obligations on Assets in
CC455 (Line CC455 is the Total
Principal Amount of Assets Covered by
Recourse Obligations or Direct Credit
Substitutes):
CC469, Amount of Recourse
Obligations on Loans in CC468 where
Recourse Is Limited to 120 Days or Less;
and
CC471, Amount of Recourse
Obligations on Loans in CC468 where
Recourse Extends Beyond 120 Days.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on the
amount of assets with recourse
obligations held by thrifts.
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
6. Loans Sold With Recourse
OTS proposes to add two lines to
Schedule CF related to loans sold
during the current reporting period with
recourse obligations:
CF365, Memo—Loans Sold with
Recourse of 120 Days or Less; and
CF366, Memo—Loans Sold with
Recourse Greater Than 120 Days.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on the
quarterly amount of loans sold with
recourse obligations held by thrifts.
7. Additions for Deposit AssessmentRelated Purposes
At the request of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation for deposit
assessment-related purposes, the OTS
proposes to add the following seven
lines to Schedule DI:
DI630, Unsecured Federal Funds
Purchased;
DI635, Secured Federal Funds
Purchased;
DI641, Securities Sold Under
Agreements to Repurchase;
DI645, Unsecured ‘‘Other
Borrowings’’—With a Remaining
Maturity of One Year or Less;
DI651, Unsecured ‘‘Other
Borrowings’’—With a Remaining
Maturity of Over One Year;
DI655, Subordinated Debentures—
With a Remaining Maturity of One Year
or Less; and
DI660, Subordinated Debentures—
With a Remaining Maturity of Over One
Year.
The additional reporting detail by
maturity is proposed as the FDIC plans
to provide a reduction in assessment
rates to institutions with longer-term
unsecured borrowings and subordinated
debt. The FDIC believes that such
borrowing and debt will likely remain
when an institution fails, thus providing
a cushion to help protect the Deposit
Insurance Fund.
The trade group commenting on the
proposed revisions expressed support
for the reporting of maturity
distributions of unsecured other
borrowings and subordinated debt on
Schedule DI, stating that the data would
enable the FDIC to implement an
adjustment to the risk-based assessment
system so that insured depository
institutions with greater amounts of
general unsecured long-term liabilities
could be rewarded with a lower
assessment rate.
8. Pledged Loans and Securities
OTS proposes to add two lines to
Schedule SI related to loans and
securities pledged as collateral for loans:
SI394, Pledged Loans; and
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
SI395, Pledged Trading Assets.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on the
amount of loans and securities pledged
by thrifts as collateral for loans. These
data items will permit OTS to better
monitor the risk profiles of thrifts with
concentrations of pledged loans and
securities and are consistent with
reporting being added to the Call Report
in 2009.
9. Questions Relating to Thrift Activities
OTS proposes to add the following
four new questions to Schedule SI:
SI900, ‘‘Does the institution, without
trust powers, act as trustee or custodian
for Individual Retirement Accounts,
Health Savings Accounts, and other
similar accounts that are invested in
non-deposit products?’’;
SI905, ‘‘Does the institution provide
custody, safekeeping or other services
involving the acceptance of orders for
the sale or purchase of securities?’’;
SI910, ‘‘Does the institution engage in
third party broker arrangements,
commonly referred to as ‘‘networking’’,
to sell securities products or services to
thrift customers?’’; and
SI915, ‘‘Does the institution sweep
deposit funds into any open-end
investment management company
registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 that holds itself
out as a money market fund?’’.
The questions relate to certain
brokerage activities such as whether a
thrift is a trustee or custodian for certain
types of accounts or provides certain
services in connection with orders for
securities transactions regardless of
whether the thrift exercises trust
powers.
10. Holding Company Data
OTS proposes to add a series of 30
lines to Schedule HC to provide
additional detailed data on the thrift
holding company parent and on a
consolidated basis:
HC221, Parent Only Perpetual
Preferred Stock: Cumulative;
HC222, Parent Only Perpetual
Preferred Stock: Noncumulative;
HC223, Parent Only Common Stock:
Par Value;
HC224, Parent Only Common Stock:
Paid in Excess of Par;
HC225, Parent Only Accumulated
Other Comprehensive Income:

HC705, Consolidated Interest Income;
HC709, Consolidated Total Income;
HC770, Consolidated Total Expense;
HC771, Consolidated Total Income
Taxes; and
HC775, Consolidated Dividends Paid.
OTS believes these new line items
will provide additional detail on thrift
holding companies. With these new
data items, OTS will be better able to
monitor the risk profiles of thrift
holding companies.
D. Comments Addressing June 30, 2009,
Proposed Revisions
OTS received comments addressing
each of the following proposed June 30,
2009, revisions:
1. Credit Card Charge-Offs Related to
Accrued Interest
OTS proposes to add a line, VA979,
Credit Card Charge-Offs Related to
Accrued Interest, to capture data on the
amount of credit card charge-offs that
are due to accrued interest. This change
is being made at the request of the FDIC
to improve their deposit insurance
premium assessment process.
The commenter noted that
compliance with this new line item
would be difficult for those thrift
institutions (including those that use a
third-party processor for servicing credit
cards) that do not presently capture data
on the amount of credit card charge-offs
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
that are due to accrued interest. Since
that specific charge-off data is not
currently required to be reported on the
TFR, the accrued interest is sometimes
added to the credit card loan amount
and is not tracked as a separate line
item. Not all thrift institutions that offer
credit cards to their customers have the
proposed data readily available within
the thrift institution or from their thirdparty processor to separately report the
accrued interest portion of the chargeoff.
The commenter expressed concern
that third-party credit card processors
may not be able to readily provide the
new data on the amount of credit card
charge-offs that are due to accrued
interest.
After considering these comments,
OTS has decided to move forward with
the addition as proposed. OTS believes
that the data to be added should
presently be available within an
institution’s accounting systems.
2. High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by
Multifamily Properties Without PMI or
Government Guarantee
The commenter noted generally the
need for OTS to provide clear
instructions for the revisions to be
implemented in 2009. Specifically, the
commenter recommended that OTS
provide clear instructions for the 16
new line items presented below being
added to Schedule LD related to high
loan-to-value loans secured by
multifamily properties without private
mortgage insurance (PMI) or
government guarantee:
LD111, High Loan-to-Value Loans
Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee:
Balances at Quarter-End: 90% up to
100% LTV;

LD461, High Loan-to-Value Loans

without PMI or Government Guarantee:
Sales: 100% and greater LTV.
OTS has decided to add these lines as
proposed. OTS believes these new line
items will provide additional detail on
high loan-to-value loans secured by
multifamily properties held by thrifts,
including detail on delinquencies,
nonaccruals, and net charge-offs, and
data on such loans originated,
purchased, or sold during the reporting
period. With these new data items, OTS
will be better able to monitor the risk
profiles of thrifts with concentrations of
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
6092
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
high loan-to-value multifamily mortgage
loans.
3. Deposits Gathered Through CDARS
OTS proposes to add a line to
Schedule DI related to deposits gathered
through the Certificate of Deposit
Account Registry Service (CDARS):
DI230, Deposits Gathered through
CDARS.
CDARS member institutions accept
depositor funds and place these into
certificates of deposit issued by
financial institutions in the network.
This occurs in amounts that ensure that
both principal and interest are eligible
for full FDIC insurance. OTS believes
this new line item will provide
additional detail on the deposit funding
sources used by thrifts.
The commenter recommended that
the TFR be amended to break out
‘‘reciprocal’’ deposits in a separate line
item from broker-originated deposits
that are currently reported on Schedule
DI. A reciprocal deposit is obtained
when an insured depository institution
exchanges funds, dollar-for-dollar, with
members of a network of other insured
depository institutions, where each
member of the network sets the interest
rate to be paid on the entire amount of
funds it places with other network
members, and all funds placed through
the network are fully insured by the
FDIC. Such an arrangement enables a
member of the network to offer its
customers a convenient means to obtain
access to FDIC insurance on large
deposits by working solely with the
bank or thrift with which the customer
has a relationship. As a result, the bank
or thrift is able to accept the large
deposits without having to post
collateral, which in turn makes more
funds available to meet the credit needs
of the community.
OTS will consider this
recommendation concerning reciprocal
deposits when it next assesses the need
and basis for possible future revisions to
the TFR. OTS has decided to add this
line as proposed.
V. TFR Revisions Proposed for
December 2009
OTS received no comments related to
the following revisions proposed to be
effective as of December 2009.
Accordingly, these revisions are
adopted as proposed.
A. Burden-Reducing Revision
1. Eliminating Schedule CSS—
Subordinate Organization Schedule
OTS proposes to eliminate Schedule
CSS from the TFR. Twenty-three line
items are presently collected annually
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
as of December 31, for each and every
required subordinate organization
owned directly or indirectly by the
savings association. OTS believes these
data can be collected independently of
the TFR reporting system during the
normal onsite or offsite examination
process. In the most recent Schedule
CSS filing for the reporting period
ending December 31, 2007, 337 thrifts
reported data for 666 subsidiary
organizations and 492 thrifts reported
no Schedule CSS data.
B. New Items
1. Schedule FV—Consolidated Assets
and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value
on a Recurring Basis
Effective for the March 31, 2007,
report date, OTS began collecting
information on certain assets and
liabilities measured at fair value in
Schedule SI. The data collected on
Schedule SI are intended to be
consistent with the fair value
disclosures and other requirements in
FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (FAS 157).
Based on the OTS’s ongoing review of
industry reporting and disclosure
practices since the inception of this
standard, and the reporting of items at
fair value on Schedule SI, OTS is
proposing to expand the data collected
from thrifts with total assets greater than
$10 billion.
To improve the consistency of data
collected with the FAS 157 disclosure
requirements and industry disclosure
practices, OTS is proposing to add a
new Schedule FV for thrifts with total
assets greater than $10 billion to the
TFR to expand the detail of fair value
data collected on Schedule SI in a
manner consistent with the asset and
liability breakdowns on Schedule RC,
Balance Sheet, as proposed by the
banking agencies for the Call Report.
OTS has determined that the
proposed information is necessary to
more accurately assess the impact of fair
value accounting and fair value
measurements for safety and soundness
purposes at the largest thrifts. The
collection of the information as
proposed will facilitate and enhance
OTS’s ability to monitor the extent of
fair value accounting in thrifts’ Reports
of Condition pursuant to the disclosure
requirements of FAS 157. The
information to be collected is consistent
with the disclosures required by FAS
157 and consistent with industry
practice for reporting fair value
measurements and should, therefore,
not impose significant incremental
burden on thrifts with total assets
greater than $10 billion. The following
PO 00000
Frm 00081

FS
OTS received comments addressing
the following proposed December 31,
2009, revisions to Schedule FS:
1. Fiduciary and Related Services Data
The revisions to Schedule FS include
breaking out foundations and
endowments as well as investment
advisory agency accounts as separate

One trade association submitted
comments on the proposed changes to
Schedule FS. This commenter requested
that the effective date for the proposed
changes to Schedule FS be extended
from December 31, 2009, to December
31, 2010, in order to provide vendors
whose systems track the data reported
in this schedule additional time for
system programming revisions. The
commenter indicated that vendors are
currently devoting programming
resources to changes necessitated by the
joint Securities and Exchange
Commission and Federal Reserve Board
Regulation R—Exceptions for Banks
from the Definition of Broker in the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This
commenter also stated that some banks
use multiple systems to track the default
status of debt issues under corporate
trusteeships and that moving to a single
system of record for tracking these debt
issues would impose significant costs
and require a longer implementation
period than proposed.
After carefully considering these
comments, OTS has decided to retain
the December 31, 2009, effective date for
the proposed changes. OTS is not
requiring that trust institutions change
from their use of multiple systems for
corporate trusteeships or that they
develop a single system of record for
such trusteeships. In addition, OTS
notes that institutions are to start
complying with Regulation R beginning
the first day of their fiscal year
commencing after September 30, 2008
(i.e., January 1, 2009, for most
institutions), which implies that
programming changes should be
complete or nearing completion.
Furthermore, as previously stated, the
agencies’ policy is to permit institutions
to provide reasonable estimates for any
new or revised TFR item as of the report
date for which the new or revised item
is initially required to be reported. The
ability to report reasonable estimates
applies to the Schedule FS revisions
that will be implemented as of
December 31, 2009, which will afford
trust institutions and their vendors
additional time—either one quarter or
one year, depending on the item and
frequency with which a particular
institution must submit Schedule FS—
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
to complete any necessary system
changes.
A. IRAs, HSAs, and Other Similar
Accounts
IRAs, HSAs, and other similar
accounts represent a large category of
individual benefit and retirementrelated accounts administered by trust
institutions for which OTS does not
collect specific data. At present, data for
retirement-related accounts is included
in the totals reported for ‘‘Other
retirement accounts’’ and ‘‘Custody and
safekeeping accounts’’ in the Fiduciary
and Related Assets section of Schedule
FS (FS240 through 243 and FS280 and
281). Significant growth in IRAs and
HSAs administered by trust institutions
is expected. IRAs, HSAs, and other
similar accounts for individuals have
risk characteristics that differ from
employee benefit plans covered by the
Employee Retirement Income Security
Act (ERISA). To identify trust
institutions experiencing significant
changes in the number of and market
value of assets in these types of
accounts for supervisory follow-up and
to monitor both aggregate and
individual trust institution growth
trends involving these accounts, OTS
proposes to add four new line items
(FS234 through FS237, ‘‘IRAs, HSAs,
and other similar accounts’’) to the
Fiduciary and Related Assets section of
Schedule FS to capture data on IRAs,
HSAs, and other similar accounts.
The commenter recommended that
the data proposed to be reported in new
lines FS234 through FS237 should be
reported instead in a new separate
subitem of Retirement-related Trust and
Agency Accounts: Employee Benefits, in
the Fiduciary and Related Assets section
of Schedule FS. In addition, the
commenter requested clarification of
how IRAs, HSAs, and other similar
accounts held outside the trust
department on the retail side of an
institution should be reported in
Schedule FS, recommending that these
accounts be excluded.
At present, IRAs, HSAs, and similar
accounts that are solely custody and
safekeeping accounts are reported in
existing items FS280 and FS281,
‘‘Custody and safekeeping accounts.’’
Custody and safekeeping accounts are
not considered fiduciary accounts per se
and are excluded from ‘‘Total fiduciary
accounts’’ reported in items FS20
through FS23 of Schedule FS. For this
reason, OTS does not believe that IRAs,
HSAs, and similar accounts should be
aggregated and reported in a new
subitem of Retirement-related Trust and
Agency Accounts: Employee Benefits, in
the Fiduciary and Related Assets section
PO 00000
Frm 00084
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6095
of Schedule FS, which is reserved for
fiduciary accounts. Therefore, OTS is
implementing new item FS223 though
FS237, ‘‘IRAs, HSAs, and other similar
accounts,’’ as proposed.
Regarding the reporting of IRAs,
HSAs, and other similar accounts
maintained outside the trust department
in the retail side of the institution, OTS
reiterates that only those activities
offered through a fiduciary business
unit should be reported on Schedule FS.
Therefore, IRAs, HSAs, and other
similar accounts not offered through a
fiduciary business unit of an institution
should not be reported on Schedule FS.
These institutions should review new
line item SI900 which inquires whether
an institution, without trust powers,
acts as trustee or custodian for
individual retirement accounts, health
savings accounts, and other similar
accounts that are invested in nondeposit products.
B. Changes to the Type of Assets
Reported in the Breakdown of Managed
Assets Held in Fiduciary Accounts by
Asset Types
OTS reviewed the types of managed
assets for which trust institutions
currently report a breakdown of such
assets by market value in Memoranda—
Managed Assets held in Personal Trust
and Agency Accounts of Schedule FS.
In this regard, discretionary investments
in common trust funds (CTFs) and
collective investment funds (CIFs) are
not separately reported at present in this
Memoranda section. Instead, trust
institutions currently are required to
allocate the underlying assets of each
CTF and CIF attributable to managed
accounts to the individual line items for
the various types of assets reported in
this Memorandum section. OTS has
found this current method of reporting
investments in CTFs and CIFs to be
misleading, confusing, and burdensome
for trust institutions. It requires
institutions to segregate the underlying
assets of each CTF and CIF by asset
type, rather than following the more
straightforward approach of reporting
the total value of managed accounts’
holdings of investments in CTFs and
CIFs. Therefore, OTS proposed to end
the current method of reporting these
investments in this Memorandum
section by adding four new line items
(FS430 through FS433) for investments
in CTFs and CIFs. These new line items
will enable OTS to collect data that
actually reflects the investment choices
of discretionary fiduciaries, i.e.,
investing in a fund rather than an
individual asset, while simplifying the
reporting of these investments.
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
6096
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
In its comment on this proposed
change, the commenter asked whether
both the accounts holding units of CTFs
and CIFs and the CTFs and CIFs
themselves should be reported in the
Fiduciary and Related Assets section of
Schedule FS and whether double
counting of CTF and CIF units and CTFs
and CIFs will result. OTS notes that
only the value of units in CTFs and CIFs
held in fiduciary accounts should be
reported in the Fiduciary and Related
Assets section of Schedule FS. When
such units are held by a managed
fiduciary account, the value of the units
will be reported in new line items
FS430 through FS433. Look-through
reporting of the underlying assets of
CTFs and CIFs in this Memorandum
section is being eliminated. Double
counting of CTF and CIF assets will be
avoided by limiting the reporting of the
underlying assets of CTFs and CIFs to
the existing Memorandum section on
Collective Investment Funds and
Common Trust Funds in Schedule FS.
At present, the asset type for
‘‘common and preferred stocks’’ in
Memoranda-Managed Assets held in
Personal Trust and Agency Accounts,
includes not only these stocks, but also
all investments in mutual funds (other
than money market mutual funds,
which are reported separately), private
equity investments, and investments in
unregistered and hedge funds.
Investments in mutual funds (other than
money market mutual funds) have long
been reported with common and
preferred stocks. However, over time,
these investments have gone from being
a relatively minor investment option for
managed fiduciary accounts to being
one of the most significant asset types
for managed fiduciary accounts.
As a consequence, OTS lacks specific
data on discretionary investments in
mutual funds (other than money market
mutual funds) despite their distinctive
differences from investments in
individual common stocks. Given these
differences and the growth in mutual
fund holdings in managed fiduciary
accounts, OTS proposed to add two new
subitems in this Memorandum section
to collect data on investments in equity
mutual funds and in other (non-money
market) mutual funds separately from
common and preferred stocks. None of
the comments OTS received specifically
addressed the proposed new subitems
for mutual funds in this Memorandum
section. OTS will implement the
changes as proposed.
Investments in hedge funds and
private equity have grown rapidly since
the implementation of Schedule FS,
with large institutional investors, e.g.,
large pension plans, increasing their
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
allocation to these types of investments
in order to increase portfolio returns
and pursue absolute return strategies.
As mentioned above, these types of
investments are currently reported as
‘‘common and preferred stocks’’ in
Memoranda-Managed Assets Held in
Personal Trust and Agency Accounts.
However, given their unique
characteristics and risks, the increasing
role such investments are having in
managed fiduciary portfolios, and the
agencies’ need to monitor the volume of
these investments across the trust
industry and at individual trust
institutions, OTS also proposed to
modify this Memoranda section by
adding four new line items (FS480
through FS483) in which trust
institutions would report investments in
unregistered funds and private equity
held in managed accounts.
The commenter suggested that
investments in unregistered funds and
private equity and investments in
common and preferred stocks be
reported as separate components of
‘‘Total managed assets held in fiduciary
accounts,’’ which would eliminate the
need for the former type of investments
to be included in two subitems of this
Memoranda section. OTS agrees with
this suggestion and is revising this
Memoranda section to exclude
investments in unregistered funds and
private equity from the subitems for
investments in common and preferred
stocks. Instead, each type of investment
will be reported as a separate
component of ‘‘Total managed assets
held in fiduciary accounts.’’
The commenter also requested that
OTS clarify the definition of ‘‘private
equity investments’’ for purposes of
reporting such investments within this
Memoranda section and explain
whether investments in closely-held
family businesses should be reported as
‘‘private equity investments.’’ In
general, for the purposes of this
Memoranda section, private equity
investments is an asset class consisting
of purchased equity securities in
operating companies that are not
publicly traded on a stock exchange or
otherwise registered with the SEC under
the federal securities laws. Investments
in closely-held family businesses,
however, would not be reported as
‘‘private equity investments’’ if such
investments represented in-kind
transfers to a fiduciary account of
securities in a closely-held family
business or an increase in a fiduciary
account’s percentage ownership of an
existing closely-held family business
whose securities are held in the
account. Such investments in closelyheld family businesses would be

Frm 00085

Sfmt 4703
reported in the subitem for
miscellaneous assets within this
Memoranda section.
C. Corporate Trust and Agency
Accounts
Trust institutions currently report the
number of corporate and municipal debt
issues for which the institution serves as
trustee and the outstanding principal
amount of these debt issues in
Memoranda—Corporate Trust and
Agency Accounts. One of the major
risks in the area of corporate trust
administration involves debt issues that
are in substantive default. A substantive
default occurs when the issuer fails to
make a required payment of interest or
principal, defaults on a required
payment into a sinking fund, files for
bankruptcy, or is declared insolvent.
The occurrence of a substantive
default significantly raises the risk
profile for an indenture trustee of a
defaulted issue. Thus, to monitor and
better understand the risk profile of
trust institutions serving as an indenture
trustee for debt securities and changes
therein, OTS proposed to require trust
institutions to report the number of such
issues that are in substantive default
and the principal amount outstanding
for these issues.
The commenter suggested
clarifications to the scope of the
proposed new reporting requirements
for debt securities in substantive default
for which an institution is serving as
indenture trustee. The commenter
recommended that the term
‘‘substantive default’’ should mean than
an event of default for an issue of
securities has actually been declared by
the trustee with notice to investors. In
addition, the commenter recommended
that events of default should include
both technical and payment defaults.
The commenter also proposed that
issues in a cure period should not be
reported as being in substantive default
and, in the case of private placement
leases, no substantive default should be
reported when the trustee is required to
delay or waive the declaration of an
event of default unless requested to do
so in writing and no such request has
been made. The commenter further
suggested that, once the trustee’s duty
with respect to a defaulted issue is
completed, the issue no longer should
be reported as defaulted. Finally, the
commenter requested that OTS confirm
that ‘‘amount outstanding’’ means the
unpaid principal balance or certificate
balance.
After considering these
recommendations, OTS agrees that
issues should not be reported as being
in substantive default until such default
E:\FR\FM\04FEN1.SGM
04FEN1
Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 22 / Wednesday, February 4, 2009 / Notices
has been declared by the trustee.
Similarly, issues should not be reported
as being in substantive default during a
cure period, provided the bond
indenture provides for a cure period.
Private placement leases where the
trustee is required to delay or waive the
declaration of an event of default, unless
requested in writing to make such
declaration, should not be reported as
being in substantive default, provided
such written request has not been made.
Once a trustee’s duties with respect to
an issue in substantive default have
been completed, the issue should no
longer be reported as being in default.
As for the meaning of the term ‘‘amount
outstanding,’’ the instructions for this
Memoranda section currently refer to
the par value of outstanding debt
securities, except for zero-coupon bonds
for which ‘‘amount outstanding’’ is
described as the maturity amount. As
suggested by the commenter, the
instructions for this Memorandum
section will be revised to clarify that
‘‘amount outstanding’’ for debt
instruments means the unpaid principal
balance. For trust preferred securities,
the ‘‘amount outstanding’’ would be the
redemption price.
OTS, however, has decided not to
treat events of technical default as
falling within the scope of the proposed
new line items (FS516 and FS517) on
debt issues in default for which the
institution serves as trustee. As
previously stated, OTS believes that a
substantive default significantly raises
the risk profile for an indenture trustee
of a defaulted issue. In such cases, every
action or failure to act by the trustee is
intensely scrutinized by bondholders of
the defaulted issue. Moreover, an event
of substantive default often results in
the incurrence of significant expense
and the distraction of managerial time.
For these reasons, OTS proposed to
collect data on substantive defaults on
issues for which the reporting trust
institution serves as trustee under a
VerDate Nov<24>2008
14:33 Feb 03, 2009
Jkt 217001
bond indenture. OTS does not believe
that events of technical default
necessarily entail the heightened degree
of risk that substantive defaults do.
Therefore, OTS does not consider it
necessary to monitor such events on a
system-wide basis. The agencies will
continue to monitor the occurrence of
events of technical default and an
institution’s administration of such
events during periodic on-site
examinations.
In addition, OTS proposed to revise
the instructions for reporting on
corporate trust accounts to state that
issues of trust preferred stock for which
the institution is trustee should be
included in the amounts reported for
corporate and municipal trusteeships.
No comments were received on this
aspect of the corporate trust reporting
proposal and OTS will implement this
instructional change as proposed.
D. Instructional Clarifications
OTS proposed to clarify the
instructions for reporting:
• The managed and non-managed
assets and number of managed and nonmanaged accounts for defined
contribution plans and defined benefit
plans in items FS220 through FS233, by
indicating that employee benefit
accounts for which the trust institution
serves as directed trustee should be
reported as non-managed accounts; and
• The number of, and market value of
assets held in, collective investment
funds and common trust funds in
Memoranda—Collective Investment
Funds and Common Trust Funds by
stating that the number of funds should
be reported, not the number of assets
held by these funds, the number of
participants, or the number of accounts
invested in the funds.
No comments were received on these
proposed instructional clarifications,
which will be implemented as
proposed.
However, the commenter requested
clarification of the term ‘‘managed
PO 00000
Frm 00086
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6097
assets’’ used in Schedule FS. The
commenter asked whether discretionary
accounts in which the management of
all or a portion of the account is
delegated to a registered investment
advisor, whether affiliated or
unaffiliated with the reporting trust
institution, should be considered
managed or non-managed assets. The
commenter also sought clarification as
to whether non-discretionary accounts
that are managed by a registered
investment adviser would be reported as
custody or non-managed accounts.
The current instructions for Schedule
FS state that an account is considered
managed if the institution has
investment discretion over the assets of
the account. Investment discretion is
defined as the sole or shared authority
(whether or not that authority is
exercised) to determine what securities
or other assets to purchase or sell on
behalf of a fiduciary related account. An
institution that delegates its authority
over investments and an institution that
receives delegated authority over
investments are both deemed to have
investment discretion. Therefore,
whether an account where investment
discretion has been delegated to a
registered investment adviser, whether
affiliated or unaffiliated with the
reporting institution, should be reported
as a managed account depends on
whether the delegation of investment
authority to the registered investment
adviser was made pursuant to the
exercise of investment discretion by the
reporting institution. If so, the account
is deemed to be a managed account by
the reporting institution. Otherwise, the
account would be a non-managed
account for purposes of Schedule FS.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3507), OTS may not conduct or sponsor, and the
respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection
unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. On October 1,
2008, OTS requested public comment for 60 days (73 FR 57205) on a
proposal to extend, with revisions, the Thrift Financial Report (TFR),
which is currently an approved collection of information. The notice
described regulatory reporting revisions proposed for the TFR, Schedule
SC--Consolidated Statement of Condition, Schedule SO--Consolidated
Statement of Operations, Schedule VA--Consolidated Valuation Allowances
and Related Data, Schedule PD--Consolidated Past Due and Nonaccrual,
Schedule LD--Loan Data, Schedule CC--Consolidated Commitments and
Contingencies, Schedule CF--Consolidated Cash Flow Information,
Schedule DI--Consolidated Deposit Information, Schedule SI--
Supplemental Information, Schedule FS--Fiduciary and Related Services,
Schedule HC--Thrift Holding Company, Schedule CSS--Subordinate
Organization Schedule, and Schedule CCR--Consolidated Capital
Requirement, and on a proposed new schedule, Schedule FV--Consolidated
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis. The
changes were proposed on a phased-in basis over 2009.
The revisions would eliminate 3 lines from the TFR, eliminate
Schedule CSS in its entirety, revise 24 existing items, add 240 new
items (including a new Schedule FV), and eliminate confidential
treatment of Schedule FS and Schedule HC data.
After considering the comments received on the proposal, OTS has
adopted most of the proposed revisions, with limited exceptions in
response to certain comments, on the phased-in basis that had been
proposed. OTS continues to evaluate certain other proposed revisions in
light of the comments received thereon and will not implement these
revisions on their proposed effective dates. OTS is submitting the
adopted revisions to OMB for review and approval.
DATES: Submit written comments on or before March 6, 2009. The
regulatory reporting revisions described herein take effect on a
phased-in basis on March 31, 2009, June 30, 2009, and December 31,
2009.

about this proposed information collection from James Caton, Director,
Financial Monitoring and Analysis Division, (202) 906-5680, Office of
Thrift Supervision, 1700 G Street, NW., Washington, DC 20552.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The effect of the proposed revisions to the
reporting requirements of these information collections will vary from
institution to institution, depending on the institution's involvement
with the types of activities or transactions to which the proposed
changes apply. OTS estimates that implementation of these reporting
changes will result in a small increase in the current reporting burden
imposed by the TFR. The following burden estimates include the effect
of the proposed revisions.
Title: Thrift Financial Report.
OMB Number: 1550-0023.
Form Number: OTS 1313.
Statutory Requirement: 12 U.S.C. 1464(v) imposes reporting
requirements for savings associations. Except for selected items, these
information collections are not given confidential treatment.
Type of Review: Revision of currently approved collections.
Affected Public: Savings associations.
Estimated Number of Respondents and Recordkeepers: 811.
Estimated Burden Hours per Respondent: 54.68 burden hours on
average.
Estimated Frequency of Response: Quarterly.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 177,398 burden hours.
Abstract: All OTS-regulated savings associations must comply with
the information collections described in this notice. OTS collects this
information each calendar quarter or less frequently if so stated. OTS
uses this information to monitor the condition, performance, and risk
profile of individual institutions and systemic risk among groups of
institutions and the industry as a whole. Except for selected items,
these information collections are not given confidential treatment.
I. Background
OTS last revised the form and content of the TFR in a manner that
significantly affected a substantial percentage of institutions in
March 2007. Revisions since March 2007 focused on specific activities
and were primarily made in response to changes in generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP). These focused revisions meant that the
new or revised TFR items were minor or applicable to only a small
percentage of institutions.
During the past year OTS has evaluated its ongoing information
needs. OTS recognizes that the TFR imposes reporting requirements,
which are a component of the regulatory burden facing institutions.
Another contributor to this regulatory burden is the examination
process, particularly on-site examinations during which institution
staff spend time and effort responding to inquiries and requests for
information designed to assist examiners in evaluating the condition
[[Page 6087]]
and risk profile of the institution. The amount of attention that
examiners direct to risk areas of the institution under examination is,
in large part, determined from TFR data. These data, and analytical
reports including the Uniform Thrift Performance Report, assist
examiners in scoping and making their preliminary assessments of risks
during the planning phase of the examination.
A risk-focused review of the information from an institution's TFR
allows examiners to make preliminary risk assessments prior to on-site
work. The degree of perceived risk determines the extent of the
examination procedures that examiners initially plan for each risk
area. If the outcome of these procedures reveals a higher level of risk
in a particular area, the examiner adjusts the examination scope and
procedures accordingly.
TFR data are also a vital source of information for the monitoring
and regulatory activities of OTS. Among their benefits, these
activities aid in determining whether the frequency of an institution's
examination cycle should remain at maximum allowed time intervals,
thereby lessening overall regulatory burden. More risk-focused TFR data
enhance the ability of OTS to assess whether an institution is
experiencing changes in its risk profile that warrant immediate follow-
up, which may include accelerating the timing of an on-site
examination.
In developing this proposal, OTS considered a range of potential
information needs, particularly in the areas of credit risk, liquidity,
and liabilities, and identified those additions to the TFR that are
most critical and relevant to OTS in fulfilling its supervisory
responsibilities. At the same time, OTS identified certain existing TFR
line items that are no longer sufficiently critical or useful to
warrant their continued collection. OTS recognizes that the reporting
burden that would result from the addition to the TFR of the new items
discussed in this proposal would not be fully offset by the proposed
elimination of, or establishment of reporting thresholds for, a limited
number of other TFR items, thereby resulting in a net increase in
reporting burden. After savings associations make any necessary changes
to their systems and records, OTS estimated that these reporting
changes would produce an average net increase of 2.0 hours per
institution per year in the ongoing reporting burden of the TFR.
Nevertheless, when viewing these proposed revisions to the TFR within a
larger context, they are intended to maintain the effectiveness of the
on- and off-site supervision activities of the OTS, which should help
to control the overall regulatory burden on institutions.
II. Current Actions
On October 1, 2008, OTS requested comment on proposed revisions to
the Thrift Financial Report (73 FR 57205). The proposed changes were to
be implemented on a phased-in basis during 2009. A limited group of
changes was proposed to take effect March 31, 2009; most revisions were
proposed to take effect June 30, 2009; and a final group of revisions
was proposed to take effect December 31, 2009.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ In addition, on November 26, 2008, OMB approved the Federal
banking agencies' joint emergency clearance requests to add two
items to Call Report Schedule RC-O, Other Data for Deposit Insurance
and FICO Assessments, and to TFR Schedule DI--Consolidated Deposit
Information--that are effective December 31, 2008, and that are
applicable to all institutions participating in the FDIC's
Transaction Account Guarantee Program. A participating institution
must report the amount and number of its noninterest-bearing
transaction accounts, as defined in the FDIC's regulations governing
the program, of more than $250,000 in Call Report Schedule RC-O,
Memorandum items 4.a and 4.b, or in TFR Schedule DI, lines DI570 and
DI575. The FDIC will use this information to calculate assessments
for participants in the Transaction Account Guarantee Program.
Because OMB's approval of the agencies' emergency clearance request
expires on May 31, 2009, the agencies proposed on December 23, 2008,
under OMB's normal clearance procedures to collect these two items
each quarter until the Transaction Account Guarantee Program ends.
See 73 FR 78794.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
OTS received one comment letter on the proposed revisions from a
trade group representing banks and savings associations of all sizes.
The trade group noted the added burden the proposed revisions would
place on institutions filing the TFR and asked that OTS adopt only
those changes essential to its mission. The trade group commented on a
reporting issue that was not addressed in the original proposal and
recommended a revision requiring institutions to report ``reciprocal
deposits'' \2\ separately from brokered deposits. OTS will consider
this recommendation concerning reciprocal deposits when it next
assesses the need and basis for possible future revisions to the TFR.
This commenter also commented on the reporting of sweep accounts from
other institutions, including affiliated institutions, noting that the
TFR may need to be revised depending on the resolution of how such
accounts are treated for deposit insurance assessment purposes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The trade group also recommended that ``reciprocal deposit''
be defined as a deposit ``obtained when an insured depository
institution exchanges funds, dollar-for-dollar, with members of a
network of other insured depository institutions, where each member
of the network sets the interest rate to be paid on the entire
amount of funds it places with other network members, and all funds
placed through the network are fully insured by the FDIC.''
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
After considering the comments received on the proposal, OTS has
decided to move forward with most of the reporting changes, with
limited modifications in response to certain comments, on the phased-in
basis that had been proposed. Sections III, IV, and V of this notice
identify the changes proposed to take effect March 31, June 30, and
December 31, 2009, respectively; and discuss the comments received on
the proposed TFR revisions that OTS has decided to implement, as
modified.
OTS recognizes institutions' need for lead time to prepare for
reporting changes, and thus proposed the phased-in implementation
schedule for 2009. TFR items that will be new or revised effective
March 31, 2009, are limited in number and most are linked to changes in
generally accepted accounting principles taking effect at the same
time. For the March 31, 2009, report date, thrifts may provide
reasonable estimates for any new or revised TFR item initially required
to be reported as of that date for which the requested information is
not readily available. This same policy on the use of reasonable
estimates will apply to the reporting of other new or revised items
when they are first implemented effective June 30 and December 31,
2009. The specific wording of the captions for the new or revised TFR
line items discussed in this notice and the numbering of these items
should be regarded as preliminary.
III. TFR Revisions Proposed for March 2009
OTS received no comments on revisions proposed in response to
accounting changes applicable to noncontrolling (minority) interests in
consolidated subsidiaries; and to a reporting addition for other-than-
temporary impairment charges on debt and equity securities. Therefore,
these revisions will be implemented in March 2009 as proposed.
A. Background
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 160, ``Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements'' (FAS 160). Under this
Statement, a noncontrolling interest, formerly referred to as a
minority interest, is that portion of total stockholders' equity and
total net income or loss that is not attributable, directly or
indirectly, to the parent; that
[[Page 6088]]
is, to the controlling interest. FAS 160 changes the placement of the
noncontrolling interest on the balance sheet and income statement. For
savings associations and holding companies with a calendar year-end,
the Statement becomes effective in the first quarter of 2009.
Accordingly, OTS proposes to make certain changes to Schedules SC, SO,
HC, and CCR.
B. Elimination of Existing Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS 160 (see Background above),
OTS will eliminate line CCR190, Minority Interest in Includable
Subsidiaries.
C. Revision of Existing Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS 160 (see Background above),
OTS will revise the captions of lines SC80 from ``Total Equity
Capital'' to ``Total Savings Association Equity Capital'', SC800 from
``Minority Interest'' to ``Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated
Subsidiaries'', SC90 from ``Total Liabilities, Minority Interest, and
Equity Capital'' to ``Total Liabilities and Equity Capital'', SO 91
from ``Net Income (Loss)'' to ``Net Income (Loss) Attributable to
Savings Association'', HC620 from ``Minority Interest'' to
``Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Subsidiaries'', HC640 from
``Consolidated Net Income for the Quarter'' to ``Consolidated Net
Income (Loss) Attributable to Holding Company'', CCR100 from ``Total
Equity Capital (SC80)'' to ``Total Equity Capital (SC84)'', and CCR105
from ``Minority Interest in Nonincludable Subsidiaries'' to
``Investments in, Advances to, and Noncontrolling Interests in
Nonincludable Subsidiaries''.
D. New Items
1. As a result of the issuance of FAS 160 (see Background above),
OTS proposes to add lines SC84, Total Equity Capital; SO88, Net Income
(Loss) Attributable to Savings Association and Noncontrolling
Interests; SO880, Net Income (Loss) Attributable to Noncontrolling
Interests; and HC635, Consolidated Net Income (Loss) Attributable to
Holding Company and Noncontrolling Interests.
2. To separately capture impairment charges on debt and equity
securities, OTS proposes to add line SO441, Other-than-Temporary
Impairment Charges on Debt and Equity Securities.
E. Eliminating Confidential Treatment of Schedule FS and Schedule HC
Data
OTS has, to this point, provided confidential treatment to some of
the information that certain institutions report in Schedule FS--
Fiduciary and Related Services, on fiduciary and related services
income, settlements, surcharges and other losses reported on lines
FS310 through FS35, and FS710 through FS70. OTS also accords
confidential treatment to all of the information that certain
institutions report in Schedule HC--Thrift Holding Company.
An important public policy issue for the federal banking regulatory
agencies has been how to use market discipline to complement
supervisory resources. Market discipline relies on market participants
having sufficient appropriate information about the financial condition
and risks of banks, thrifts, and their holding companies. The TFR is
widely used by securities analysts, rating agencies, and large
institutional investors as sources of thrift-specific data. Disclosure
that increases transparency should lead to more accurate market
assessments of individual banks' performance and risks. This, in turn,
should result in more effective market discipline on thrifts. For these
reasons, we proposed eliminating the confidential treatment of data
reported on schedules FS and HC.
1. Eliminating Confidential Treatment of Schedule FS Data
The trade group commenting on the proposed revisions opposed
eliminating the confidential treatment of fiduciary income and loss
data, stating that the agencies' original reason for according
confidential treatment to these data, i.e., that these data generally
pertain to only a portion of a reporting institution's total operations
and not to the institution as a whole, still holds true. This commenter
also cited significant competitive concerns with the proposed
elimination of confidential treatment because making income and loss
data publicly available ``may make it possible for competitors to
deduce'' an individual institution's fee schedules. In addition, this
commenter believed that these publicly disclosed data may be subject to
misinterpretation by market participants who would lack a proper
understanding of the scope of the income and loss data reported in
Schedule FS because fiduciary income and loss data are presented
differently in institutions' audited financial statements prepared in
accordance with GAAP. Therefore, this commenter believes that
institutions' financial statements can satisfy market participants'
needs for fiduciary income and loss data. Finally, this commenter
stated that market participants may be confused or misled by the
fiduciary income and loss information because they would be unable to
determine the source or specific fiduciary activity giving rise to the
income or loss.
Data on fiduciary and related services income and losses is treated
as confidential on an individual institution basis. Nevertheless, OTS
publishes aggregate data derived from these confidential items. OTS
does not preclude institutions from publicly disclosing the fiduciary
and related services income and loss data that the agencies treat as
confidential.
In addition, under the Uniform Interagency Trust Rating System, the
agencies assign a rating to the earnings of an institution's fiduciary
activities at those institutions with fiduciary assets of more than
$100 million, which are also the institutions that report their
fiduciary and related services income and losses in Call Report
Schedule RC-T and TFR Schedule FS. The agencies' evaluation of an
institution's trust earnings considers such factors as the
profitability of fiduciary activities in relation to the size and scope
of those activities and the institution's overall business, taking this
into account by functions and product lines. Although the agencies'
ratings for individual institutions are not publicly available, the
reason for rating the trust earnings of institutions with more than
$100 million in fiduciary assets--its effect on the financial condition
of the institution--means that fiduciary and related services income
and loss information for these institutions is also relevant to market
participants and others in the public as they seek to evaluate the
financial condition and performance of individual institutions.
Increasing the transparency of institutions' fiduciary activities by
making individual institutions' fiduciary income and loss data
available to the public should improve the market's ability to assess
these institutions' performance and risks and thereby enhance market
discipline.
Although the fiduciary income and loss data currently reported in
Schedule FS and afforded confidential treatment apply only to a portion
of an institution rather than an entire institution, all other data
collected in Schedule FS of the TFR is publicly available, even when
the data relates only to portions of an institution's activities.
OTS continues to believe that the benefit of increased transparency
from the full disclosure of fiduciary income and loss data will improve
market discipline by enhancing the market's ability to assess
institution-specific performance and risks. After carefully considering
the comments on the public availability of fiduciary income and loss
data reported in Schedule FS, OTS is
[[Page 6089]]
adopting the proposal to eliminate the confidential treatment of such
data beginning with the data reported as of March 31, 2009.
2. Eliminating Confidential Treatment of Schedule HC Data
The trade group commenting on the proposed revisions recommended a
bifurcated approach to eliminating the confidential treatment of
Schedule HC data filed by holding companies. The commenter felt that
eliminating confidential treatment of Schedule HC data is appropriate
for publicly-held thrift holding companies, but should not be
eliminated for privately-held thrift holding companies. However, many
public requests are received for these data. In addition, some rating
agencies have indicated thrift holding company debt ratings suffer due
to the lack of publicly available data. Additionally, Federal Reserve
Board Schedule Y-9 filed by bank holding companies is publicly
available on consolidated and unconsolidated bases for both publicly
and privately owned bank holding companies. It is reasonable that OTS
should be consistent with the FRB's treatment of holding company
financial information.
Thus, after carefully considering the comments on the public
availability of Schedule HC data, OTS is adopting the proposal to
eliminate the confidential treatment of such data beginning with the
data reported as of March 31, 2009.
IV. TFR Revisions Proposed for June 2009
OTS received no comments related to the following revisions
proposed to be effective as of June 2009. Accordingly, these revisions
are adopted as proposed.
A. Elimination of Existing Items
1. Schedule SI--Consolidated Supplemental Information
SI805, Do you sell private-label or third-party mutual funds and
annuities?; and
SI860, Fee Income from the Sale and Servicing of Mutual Funds and
Annuities.
Line SI805 is a yes/no question regarding the sale of private label
or third party mutual funds and annuities. Line SI860 reports the
amount of fee income from the sale and servicing of mutual funds and
annuities. Institutions that provided a yes response to line SI805 will
now provide the same response to new line SI910. OTS believes the data
reported in line SI860 can be collected independently of the TFR
reporting system during the examination process.
B. Revisions of Existing Items
1. Revising the caption for line SO430 from ``Noninterest Income--
Net Income (Loss) from Other--Sale of Assets Held for Sale and
Available-for-Sale Securities'' to ``Noninterest Income--Net Income
(Loss) from Other--Sale of Available-for-Sale Securities'' to
separately report gains and losses on the sale of available-for-sale
securities from gains and losses on loans and leases held for sale and
on other assets held for sale. Gains and losses on loans and leases
held for sale and on other assets held for sale would be reported in
new lines SO431 and SO432 described below; and
2. Revising the language for question HC840 from ``Is the holding
company or any of its subsidiaries regulated by a foreign financial
services regulator?'' to ``Is the holding company or any of its
affiliates conducting operations outside of the U.S. through a foreign
branch or subsidiary?'' This line is being revised to more fully
identify holding companies with foreign operations, including parallel
banking operations. A parallel banking organization exists when at
least one U.S. bank and one foreign financial institution are
controlled either directly or indirectly by the same person or group of
persons who are closely associated in their business dealings or
otherwise acting together, but are not subject to consolidated
supervision by a single home country supervisor. A foreign financial
institution includes a holding company of the foreign bank and any U.S.
or foreign affiliates of the foreign bank.
C. New Items
1. Noninterest Income
OTS proposes to add two lines related to gains and losses on the
sale of loans and leases held for sale and on other assets held for
sale:
SO431, Noninterest Income--Net Income (Loss) from Other--Sale of
Loans and Leases Held for Sale; and
SO432, Noninterest Income--Net Income (Loss) from Other--Sale of
Other Assets Held for Sale.
These new lines, in conjunction with the revised line SO430
described above, will allow thrifts to separately report gains and
losses on the sale of available-for-sale securities, on loans and
leases held for sale, and on other assets held for sale.
2. Loans in Process of Foreclosure
OTS proposes to add a series of eight lines to Schedule PD related
to loans in the process of foreclosure:
PD40, Total Loans in Process of Foreclosure;
PD415, Construction Loans in Process of Foreclosure;
PD421, 1-4 Dwelling Units Secured by Revolving Open-End Loans in
Process of Foreclosure;
PD423, 1-4 Dwelling Units Secured by First Liens in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD424, 1-4 Dwelling Units Secured by Junior Liens in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD425, Multifamily (5 or more) Dwelling Units in Process of
Foreclosure;
PD435, Nonresidential Property (Except Land) in Process of
Foreclosure; and
PD438, Land Loans in Process of Foreclosure.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
the various types of real estate loans in the process of foreclosure.
With these new data items, OTS will be better able to monitor the asset
quality and risk profiles of thrifts.
Thrifts would report total unpaid principal balance of loans
secured by the various types of real estate for which formal
foreclosure proceedings to seize the real estate collateral have
started and are ongoing as of quarter-end, regardless of the date the
foreclosure procedure was initiated. Loans would be classified as in
process of foreclosure according to local requirements.
3. Construction Loans With Capitalized Interest
OTS proposes to add a series of six lines to Schedule LD related to
construction loans with capitalized interest:
LD710, Construction Loans on 1--4 Dwelling Units with Capitalized
Interest;
LD715, Capitalized Interest on Construction Loans on 1--4 Dwelling
Units Included in Current Quarter Income;
LD720, Construction Loans on Multifamily (5 or More) Dwelling Units
with Capitalized Interest;
LD725, Capitalized Interest on Construction Loans on Multifamily (5
or More) Dwelling Units Included in Current Quarter Income;
LD730, Construction Loans on Nonresidential Property (Except Land)
with Capitalized Interest; and
LD735, Capitalized Interest on Construction Loans on Nonresidential
Property (Except Land) Included in Current Quarter Income.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
the use of capitalized interest in connection with various types of
construction
[[Page 6090]]
loans. With these new data items, OTS will be better able to monitor
the risk profiles of thrifts with concentrations of construction loans.
4. Collateralized Debt Obligations, Collateralized Loan Obligations,
and Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities (CMBSs)
OTS proposes to add a series of six lines to Schedule LD to provide
additional reporting detail on collateralized debt obligations (CDOs),
collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), and commercial mortgage-backed
securities (CMBSs):
LD750, Collateralized Debt Obligations: Carrying Value;
LD755, Collateralized Debt Obligations: Market Value;
LD760, Collateralized Loan Obligations: Carrying Value;
LD765, Collateralized Loan Obligations: Market Value;
LD770, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities: Carrying Value; and
LD775, Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities: Market Value.
CDOs are a type of asset-backed security and structured credit
product. CDOs are constructed from a portfolio of fixed-income assets
that are pooled together and passed on to different classes of owners.
CLOs are a type of asset-backed security and structured credit
product. CLOs are structured from a portfolio of nonmortgage business
loans that are pooled together and passed on to different classes of
owners.
CMBSs are a type of asset-backed security and structured credit
product. CMBSs are structured from a portfolio of commercial mortgage
loans that are pooled together and passed on to different classes of
owners.
5. Recourse Obligations on Loans in Line CC468
OTS proposes to add two lines to Schedule CC related to recourse
obligations on loans in CC468, Amount of Recourse Obligations on Assets
in CC455 (Line CC455 is the Total Principal Amount of Assets Covered by
Recourse Obligations or Direct Credit Substitutes):
CC469, Amount of Recourse Obligations on Loans in CC468 where
Recourse Is Limited to 120 Days or Less; and
CC471, Amount of Recourse Obligations on Loans in CC468 where
Recourse Extends Beyond 120 Days.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
the amount of assets with recourse obligations held by thrifts.
6. Loans Sold With Recourse
OTS proposes to add two lines to Schedule CF related to loans sold
during the current reporting period with recourse obligations:
CF365, Memo--Loans Sold with Recourse of 120 Days or Less; and
CF366, Memo--Loans Sold with Recourse Greater Than 120 Days.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
the quarterly amount of loans sold with recourse obligations held by
thrifts.
7. Additions for Deposit Assessment-Related Purposes
At the request of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation for
deposit assessment-related purposes, the OTS proposes to add the
following seven lines to Schedule DI:
DI630, Unsecured Federal Funds Purchased;
DI635, Secured Federal Funds Purchased;
DI641, Securities Sold Under Agreements to Repurchase;
DI645, Unsecured ``Other Borrowings''--With a Remaining Maturity of
One Year or Less;
DI651, Unsecured ``Other Borrowings''--With a Remaining Maturity of
Over One Year;
DI655, Subordinated Debentures--With a Remaining Maturity of One
Year or Less; and
DI660, Subordinated Debentures--With a Remaining Maturity of Over
One Year.
The additional reporting detail by maturity is proposed as the FDIC
plans to provide a reduction in assessment rates to institutions with
longer-term unsecured borrowings and subordinated debt. The FDIC
believes that such borrowing and debt will likely remain when an
institution fails, thus providing a cushion to help protect the Deposit
Insurance Fund.
The trade group commenting on the proposed revisions expressed
support for the reporting of maturity distributions of unsecured other
borrowings and subordinated debt on Schedule DI, stating that the data
would enable the FDIC to implement an adjustment to the risk-based
assessment system so that insured depository institutions with greater
amounts of general unsecured long-term liabilities could be rewarded
with a lower assessment rate.
8. Pledged Loans and Securities
OTS proposes to add two lines to Schedule SI related to loans and
securities pledged as collateral for loans:
SI394, Pledged Loans; and
SI395, Pledged Trading Assets.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
the amount of loans and securities pledged by thrifts as collateral for
loans. These data items will permit OTS to better monitor the risk
profiles of thrifts with concentrations of pledged loans and securities
and are consistent with reporting being added to the Call Report in
2009.
9. Questions Relating to Thrift Activities
OTS proposes to add the following four new questions to Schedule
SI:
SI900, ``Does the institution, without trust powers, act as trustee
or custodian for Individual Retirement Accounts, Health Savings
Accounts, and other similar accounts that are invested in non-deposit
products?'';
SI905, ``Does the institution provide custody, safekeeping or other
services involving the acceptance of orders for the sale or purchase of
securities?'';
SI910, ``Does the institution engage in third party broker
arrangements, commonly referred to as ``networking'', to sell
securities products or services to thrift customers?''; and
SI915, ``Does the institution sweep deposit funds into any open-end
investment management company registered under the Investment Company
Act of 1940 that holds itself out as a money market fund?''.
The questions relate to certain brokerage activities such as
whether a thrift is a trustee or custodian for certain types of
accounts or provides certain services in connection with orders for
securities transactions regardless of whether the thrift exercises
trust powers.
10. Holding Company Data
OTS proposes to add a series of 30 lines to Schedule HC to provide
additional detailed data on the thrift holding company parent and on a
consolidated basis:
HC221, Parent Only Perpetual Preferred Stock: Cumulative;
HC222, Parent Only Perpetual Preferred Stock: Noncumulative;
HC223, Parent Only Common Stock: Par Value;
HC224, Parent Only Common Stock: Paid in Excess of Par;
HC225, Parent Only Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income:
Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Available-for-Sale Securities;
HC226, Parent Only Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income: Gains
(Losses) on Cash Flow Hedges;
HC227, Parent Only Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income: Other;
HC228, Parent Only Retained Earnings;
[[Page 6091]]
HC229, Parent Only Other Components of Equity Capital;
HC301, Parent Only Cash, Deposits, and Investment Securities;
HC505, Parent Only Interest Income;
HC509, Parent Only Total Income;
HC570, Parent Only Total Expense;
HC571, Parent Only Total Income Taxes;
HC575, Parent Only Dividends Paid;
HC601, Consolidated Cash, Deposits, and Investment Securities;
HC621, Consolidated Perpetual Preferred Stock: Cumulative;
HC622, Consolidated Perpetual Preferred Stock: Noncumulative;
HC623, Consolidated Common Stock: Par Value;
HC624, Consolidated Common Stock: Paid in Excess of Par;
HC625, Consolidated Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income:
Unrealized Gains (Losses) on Available-for-Sale Securities;
HC626, Consolidated Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income: Gains
(Losses) on Cash Flow Hedges;
HC627, Consolidated Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income: Other;
HC628, Consolidated Only Retained Earnings;
HC629, Consolidated Only Other Components of Equity Capital.
HC705, Consolidated Interest Income;
HC709, Consolidated Total Income;
HC770, Consolidated Total Expense;
HC771, Consolidated Total Income Taxes; and
HC775, Consolidated Dividends Paid.
OTS believes these new line items will provide additional detail on
thrift holding companies. With these new data items, OTS will be better
able to monitor the risk profiles of thrift holding companies.
D. Comments Addressing June 30, 2009, Proposed Revisions
OTS received comments addressing each of the following proposed
June 30, 2009, revisions:
1. Credit Card Charge-Offs Related to Accrued Interest
OTS proposes to add a line, VA979, Credit Card Charge-Offs Related
to Accrued Interest, to capture data on the amount of credit card
charge-offs that are due to accrued interest. This change is being made
at the request of the FDIC to improve their deposit insurance premium
assessment process.
The commenter noted that compliance with this new line item would
be difficult for those thrift institutions (including those that use a
third-party processor for servicing credit cards) that do not presently
capture data on the amount of credit card charge-offs that are due to
accrued interest. Since that specific charge-off data is not currently
required to be reported on the TFR, the accrued interest is sometimes
added to the credit card loan amount and is not tracked as a separate
line item. Not all thrift institutions that offer credit cards to their
customers have the proposed data readily available within the thrift
institution or from their third-party processor to separately report
the accrued interest portion of the charge-off.
The commenter expressed concern that third-party credit card
processors may not be able to readily provide the new data on the
amount of credit card charge-offs that are due to accrued interest.
After considering these comments, OTS has decided to move forward
with the addition as proposed. OTS believes that the data to be added
should presently be available within an institution's accounting
systems.
2. High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties Without
PMI or Government Guarantee
The commenter noted generally the need for OTS to provide clear
instructions for the revisions to be implemented in 2009. Specifically,
the commenter recommended that OTS provide clear instructions for the
16 new line items presented below being added to Schedule LD related to
high loan-to-value loans secured by multifamily properties without
private mortgage insurance (PMI) or government guarantee:
LD111, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Balances at Quarter-End: 90% up to
100% LTV;
LD121, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Balances at Quarter-End: 100% and
greater LTV;
LD211, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Past Due and Still Accruing: 30-89 Days: 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD221, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Past Due and Still Accruing: 30-89 Days: 100% and greater LTV;
LD231, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Past Due and Still Accruing: 90 Days or More: 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD241, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Past Due and Still Accruing: 90 Days or More: 100% and greater LTV;
LD251, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Nonaccrual: 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD261, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Past Due and Nonaccrual Balances:
Nonaccrual: 100% and greater LTV;
LD311, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Charge-offs and Recoveries: Net
Charge-offs (including Specific Valuation Allowance Provisions &
Transfers from General to Specific Allowances): 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD321, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Charge-offs and Recoveries: Net
Charge-offs (including Specific Valuation Allowance Provisions &
Transfers From General to Specific Allowances): 100% and greater LTV;
LD411, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Purchases: 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD421, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Purchases: 100% and greater LTV;
LD431, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Originations: 90% up to 100% LTV;
LD441, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Originations: 100% and greater
LTV;
LD451, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Sales: 90% up to 100% LTV; and
LD461, High Loan-to-Value Loans Secured by Multifamily Properties
without PMI or Government Guarantee: Sales: 100% and greater LTV.
OTS has decided to add these lines as proposed. OTS believes these
new line items will provide additional detail on high loan-to-value
loans secured by multifamily properties held by thrifts, including
detail on delinquencies, nonaccruals, and net charge-offs, and data on
such loans originated, purchased, or sold during the reporting period.
With these new data items, OTS will be better able to monitor the risk
profiles of thrifts with concentrations of
[[Page 6092]]
high loan-to-value multifamily mortgage loans.
3. Deposits Gathered Through CDARS
OTS proposes to add a line to Schedule DI related to deposits
gathered through the Certificate of Deposit Account Registry Service
(CDARS):
DI230, Deposits Gathered through CDARS.
CDARS member institutions accept depositor funds and place these
into certificates of deposit issued by financial institutions in the
network. This occurs in amounts that ensure that both principal and
interest are eligible for full FDIC insurance. OTS believes this new
line item will provide additional detail on the deposit funding sources
used by thrifts.
The commenter recommended that the TFR be amended to break out
``reciprocal'' deposits in a separate line item from broker-originated
deposits that are currently reported on Schedule DI. A reciprocal
deposit is obtained when an insured depository institution exchanges
funds, dollar-for-dollar, with members of a network of other insured
depository institutions, where each member of the network sets the
interest rate to be paid on the entire amount of funds it places with
other network members, and all funds placed through the network are
fully insured by the FDIC. Such an arrangement enables a member of the
network to offer its customers a convenient means to obtain access to
FDIC insurance on large deposits by working solely with the bank or
thrift with which the customer has a relationship. As a result, the
bank or thrift is able to accept the large deposits without having to
post collateral, which in turn makes more funds available to meet the
credit needs of the community.
OTS will consider this recommendation concerning reciprocal
deposits when it next assesses the need and basis for possible future
revisions to the TFR. OTS has decided to add this line as proposed.
V. TFR Revisions Proposed for December 2009
OTS received no comments related to the following revisions
proposed to be effective as of December 2009. Accordingly, these
revisions are adopted as proposed.
A. Burden-Reducing Revision
1. Eliminating Schedule CSS--Subordinate Organization Schedule
OTS proposes to eliminate Schedule CSS from the TFR. Twenty-three
line items are presently collected annually as of December 31, for each
and every required subordinate organization owned directly or
indirectly by the savings association. OTS believes these data can be
collected independently of the TFR reporting system during the normal
onsite or offsite examination process. In the most recent Schedule CSS
filing for the reporting period ending December 31, 2007, 337 thrifts
reported data for 666 subsidiary organizations and 492 thrifts reported
no Schedule CSS data.
B. New Items
1. Schedule FV--Consolidated Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair
Value on a Recurring Basis
Effective for the March 31, 2007, report date, OTS began collecting
information on certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value in
Schedule SI. The data collected on Schedule SI are intended to be
consistent with the fair value disclosures and other requirements in
FASB Statement No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (FAS 157).
Based on the OTS's ongoing review of industry reporting and
disclosure practices since the inception of this standard, and the
reporting of items at fair value on Schedule SI, OTS is proposing to
expand the data collected from thrifts with total assets greater than
$10 billion.
To improve the consistency of data collected with the FAS 157
disclosure requirements and industry disclosure practices, OTS is
proposing to add a new Schedule FV for thrifts with total assets
greater than $10 billion to the TFR to expand the detail of fair value
data collected on Schedule SI in a manner consistent with the asset and
liability breakdowns on Schedule RC, Balance Sheet, as proposed by the
banking agencies for the Call Report.
OTS has determined that the proposed information is necessary to
more accurately assess the impact of fair value accounting and fair
value measurements for safety and soundness purposes at the largest
thrifts. The collection of the information as proposed will facilitate
and enhance OTS's ability to monitor the extent of fair value
accounting in thrifts' Reports of Condition pursuant to the disclosure
requirements of FAS 157. The information to be collected is consistent
with the disclosures required by FAS 157 and consistent with industry
practice for reporting fair value measurements and should, therefore,
not impose significant incremental burden on thrifts with total assets
greater than $10 billion. The following 75 new line items are proposed
for Schedule FV:
FV110, Federal Funds Sold and Securities Purchased Under Agreements
to Resell--Total Fair Value Reported;
FV111, Federal Funds Sold and Securities Purchased Under Agreements
to Resell--Amounts Netted in the Determination of Fair Value;

One trade association submitted comments on the proposed changes to
Schedule FS. This commenter requested that the effective date for the
proposed changes to Schedule FS be extended from December 31, 2009, to
December 31, 2010, in order to provide vendors whose systems track the
data reported in this schedule additional time for system programming
revisions. The commenter indicated that vendors are currently devoting
programming resources to changes necessitated by the joint Securities
and Exchange Commission and Federal Reserve Board Regulation R--
Exceptions for Banks from the Definition of Broker in the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934. This commenter also stated that some banks use
multiple systems to track the default status of debt issues under
corporate trusteeships and that moving to a single system of record for
tracking these debt issues would impose significant costs and require a
longer implementation period than proposed.
After carefully considering these comments, OTS has decided to
retain the December 31, 2009, effe
