all domestic financial institutions
including banks, thrifts and credit
unions.
The agencies 2 have identified two
sections of the Guidance that fall under
the definition of an information
collection. Section 14 states that
institutions should consider liquidity
costs, benefits, and risks in strategic
planning and budgeting processes.
Section 20 requires that liquidity risk
reports provide aggregate information
with sufficient supporting detail to
enable management to assess the
sensitivity of the institution to changes
in market conditions, its own financial
performance, and other important risk
factors.
Current Actions: The Federal Reserve
proposes to extend, without revision,
the FR 4198 information collection.
2. Report title: Recordkeeping
Provisions Associated with Guidance on
Leveraged Lending.
Agency form number: FR 4203.
OMB control number: 7100–0354.
Frequency: On occasion.
Reporters: All institutions that
originate or participate in leverage
lending.
Estimated annual burden hours:
29,422 hours.
Estimated average hours per response:
754.4 hours.
Number of respondents: 39.
General description of report: The
Board’s Legal Division has determined
that all financial institutions supervised
by the Board and substantively engaged
in leveraged lending activities are
subject to the FR 4203:
• Regarding state member banks, the
information collection is authorized by
Section 11(a)(2) of the Federal Reserve
Act, 12 U.S.C. 248(a)(2), which
authorizes the Board to require any
depository institution to make such
reports of its assets and liabilities as the
Board may determine to be necessary or
desirable to enable the Board to
discharge its responsibilities to monitor
and control monetary and credit
aggregates.
• With respect to bank holding
companies, Section 5(c) of the Bank
Holding Company Act, 12 U.S.C.
1844(c), authorizes the Board to require
a bank holding company and any
subsidiary ‘‘to keep the Board informed
as to—(i) its financial condition, [and]
systems for monitoring and controlling
financial and operating risks. . . .’’
• With respect to savings and loan
holding companies, 12 U.S.C.
2 As part of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act, the OTS was
abolished and its functions and powers were
transferred to the OCC, the FDIC, and the Federal
Reserve.

Jkt 238001
1467a(b)(3), authorizes the Board to
‘‘maintain such books and records as
may be prescribed by the Board.’’
• Regarding branches and agencies of
foreign banking organizations, Section
7(c)(2) of the International Banking Act
of 1978, 12 U.S.C. 3105(c)(2), subjects
such entities to the requirements of
section 11(a) of the Federal Reserve Act
(12 U.S.C. 248(a)) ‘‘to the same extent
and in the same manner as if the branch
or agency were a state member bank.’’
• Under Section 25 of the Federal
Reserve Act, 12 U.S.C. 602, member
banks are required to furnish to the
Board ‘‘information concerning the
condition of’’ Edge and Agreement
Corporations in which they invest. More
generally with respect to Edge and
Agreement Corporations, under Section
25A of the Federal Reserve Act, 12
U.S.C. 611a, the Federal Reserve may
‘‘issue rules and regulations’’ governing
such entities ‘‘consistent with and in
furtherance of the purposes’’ of that
subchapter.
Because the information collection is
called for in guidance and not in a
statute or regulation, it is considered
voluntary.
Because the information collected by
the Proposed Guidance is maintained at
the institutions, issues of confidentiality
would not normally arise. Should the
information be obtained by the Board in
the course of an examination, it would
be exempt from disclosure under
exemption 8 of Freedom of Information
Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8). In
addition, some or all of the information
may be confidential commercial or
financial information protected from
disclosure under exemption 4 of FOIA,
under the standards set forth in
National Parks & Conservation Ass’n v.
Morton, 498 F.2d 765 (D.C. Cir. 1974).
Abstract: The interagency guidance
outlines high-level principles related to
safe and sound leveraged lending
activities, including underwriting
considerations, assessing and
documenting enterprise value, risk
management expectations for credits
awaiting distribution, stress testing
expectations and portfolio management,
and risk management expectations. This
guidance applies to all financial
institutions substantively engaged in
leveraged lending activities supervised
by the Federal Reserve, FDIC, and OCC
(the Agencies).
The Agencies identified certain
aspects of the proposed guidance that
may constitute a collection of
information. In particular, these aspects
are the provisions that state a banking
organization should (a) have
underwriting policies for leveraged
lending, including stress testing
PO 00000
Frm 00023
Fmt 4703

procedures for leveraged credits; (b)
have risk management policies,
including stress testing procedures for
pipeline exposures; and (c) have
policies and procedures for
incorporating the results of leveraged
credit and pipeline stress tests into the
firm’s overall stress testing framework.
Although the guidance is applicable
to all institutions that originate or
participate in leverage lending, due to
the large exposures created by these
types of loans, these credits are most
likely originated primarily by larger
institutions.
Current Actions: The Federal Reserve
proposes to extend, without revision,
the FR 4203 information collection.

The
National Childhood Vaccine Injury Act
of 1986 (Pub. L. 99–660), as amended by
section 708 of Public Law 103–183,
added section 2126 to the Public Health
Service Act. Section 2126, codified at 42
U.S.C. 300aa–26, requires the Secretary
of Health and Human Services to
develop and disseminate vaccine
information materials for distribution by
all health care providers in the United
States to any patient (or to the parent or
legal representative in the case of a
child) receiving vaccines covered under
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program (VICP).
Development and revision of the
vaccine information materials, also
known as Vaccine Information
Statements (VIS), have been delegated
by the Secretary to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Section 2126 requires that the materials
be developed, or revised, after notice to
the public, with a 60-day comment
period, and in consultation with the
Advisory Commission on Childhood
Vaccines, appropriate health care
provider and parent organizations, and
the Food and Drug Administration. The
law also requires that the information
contained in the materials be based on
available data and information, be
presented in understandable terms, and
include:
(1) A concise description of the
benefits of the vaccine,
(2) A concise description of the risks
associated with the vaccine,
(3) A statement of the availability of
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program, and
(4) Such other relevant information as
may be determined by the Secretary.
The vaccines initially covered under
the National Vaccine Injury
Compensation Program were diphtheria,
tetanus, pertussis, measles, mumps,
rubella and poliomyelitis vaccines.
Since April 15, 1992, any health care
provider in the United States who
intends to administer one of these
covered vaccines is required to provide
copies of the relevant vaccine
information materials prior to
administration of any of these vaccines.
Since then, the following vaccines have
been added to the National Vaccine
Injury Compensation Program, requiring
use of vaccine information materials for
them as well: hepatitis B, Haemophilus
influenzae type b (Hib), varicella
(chickenpox), pneumococcal conjugate,
rotavirus, hepatitis A, meningococcal,
human papillomavirus (HPV), and
seasonal influenza vaccines.

care provider groups.
