Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 180 / Friday, September 17, 2010 / Notices recurring basis, with separate disclosure of these commitments if significant. Furthermore, current item 2.a, Nontrading securities at fair value with changes in fair value reported in current earnings, and current item 4, Deposits, would be renumbered as items 5.b.(1) and 8, respectively. Second, the agencies propose to modify the reporting criteria for Schedule Q. The current instructions require all branches that have adopted ASC Topic 820 and (1) have elected to account for financial instruments or servicing assets and liabilities at fair value under a fair value option or (2) have trading assets of $2 million or more in any of the four preceding calendar quarters, to complete Schedule Q. The agencies propose to maintain this reporting requirement for branches that use a fair value option or that have significant trading activity. In addition, the agencies propose to extend the requirement to complete Schedule Q to all branches that reported $500 million or more in total assets as of the preceding December 31, regardless of whether they have elected to apply a fair value option to financial or servicing assets and liabilities. The agencies believe 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. The collection of the information on Schedule Q, as proposed, will facilitate and enhance the banking agencies’ ability to monitor the extent of fair value accounting by branches, including the elective use of fair value accounting and the nature of the inputs used in the valuation process, pursuant to the disclosure requirements of ASC Topic 820. The information collected on Schedule Q is consistent with the disclosures required by ASC Topic 820 and consistent with industry practice for reporting fair value measurements and should, therefore, not impose significant incremental burden on branches. wwoods2 on DSK1DXX6B1PROD with NOTICES_PART 1 Paperwork Reduction Act Request for Comment Comments are invited on: a. Whether the information collections are necessary for the proper performance of the agencies’ functions, including whether the information has practical utility; b.

Ways to minimize the burden of the information collections on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and e. Estimates of capital or start up costs and costs of operation, maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be shared among the agencies. All comments will become a matter of public record.
