Small businesses are not affected.
General description of report: This
information collection is required to
evidence compliance with sections 23A
and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (12
U.S.C. 371c(f) and 371c–1(e)).
Confidential and proprietary

operating, or condition reports prepared

supervision of financial institutions.’’
Abstract: On December 12, 2002, the
Federal Reserve published a Federal
Register notice 1 adopting Reg W to
implement sections 23A and 23B. The
Regulation was effective April 1, 2003.
The Board issued Reg W for several
reasons. First, the regulatory framework
established by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley
Act 2 emphasizes the importance of
sections 23A and 23B as a means to
protect depository institutions from
losses in transactions with affiliates.
Second, adoption of a comprehensive
rule simplified the interpretation and
application of sections 23A and 23B,
ensured that the statute is consistently
interpreted and applied, and minimized
burden on banking organizations to the
extent consistent with the statute’s
goals. Third, issuing a comprehensive
rule allowed the public an opportunity
to comment on Federal Reserve
interpretations of sections 23A and 23B.
Current Actions: On March 4, 2009,
the Federal Reserve published a notice
in the Federal Register (74 FR 9401)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension, without revision, of
the FR H–4, FR 2064, RFP/RFPQ, and
Reg W. The comment period for this
notice expired on May 4, 2009. The
Federal Reserve did not receive any
comments.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, May 11, 2009.
Jennifer J. Johnson,
Secretary of the Board.
