profile, condition, and complexity and
are developing a proposal to simplify
the regulatory capital rules in a manner
that maintains safety and soundness and
the quality and quantity of regulatory
capital in the banking system. Such
amendments may include (1) replacing
the framework’s complex treatment of
high volatility commercial real estate
exposures with a more straightforward
treatment for most acquisition,
development, or construction loans; (2)
simplifying the current regulatory
capital treatment for mortgage servicing
assets, timing difference deferred tax
assets, and holdings of regulatory
capital instruments issued by financial
institutions; and (3) simplifying the
current limitations on minority interests
in regulatory capital. The agencies
would seek industry comment on these
amendments through the normal notice
and comment process.
The OCC regularly monitors and
analyzes developments in the banking
industry to ensure that the revised
capital rules appropriately reflect risks
faced by banking organizations and
considers many issues before
determining whether a change to the
revised capital rules is appropriate. The
safety and soundness of community
banks depends, in part, on having and
maintaining sufficient regulatory
capital. More than 500 banking
organizations, mostly community banks,
failed in the aftermath of the financial
crisis largely because they did not have
sufficient capital relative to their risk.
To assist community banks, the
agencies published a community bank
guide to help community banks
understand the sections of the revised
2013 capital rules most relevant to their
operations.5 The OCC has also
published a number of guidance
documents to assist banks in their
capital planning efforts 6 and intends to
publish revisions to its capital
handbook to make guidance
publications and regulatory revisions
available in one place.
Comments continue to be invited on:
(a) Whether the collections of
information are necessary for the proper
performance of the OCC’s functions,
including whether the information has
practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s
estimates of the burden of the
information collections, including the

The OCC is proposing to extend OMB
approval of the following information
collection:
Title: Fair Housing Home Loan Data
System Regulation.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0159.
Description: The Fair Housing Act (42
U.S.C. 3605) prohibits discrimination in
the financing of housing on the basis of
race, color, religion, sex, or national
origin. The Equal Credit Opportunity
Act (ECOA) (15 U.S.C. 1691 et seq.)
prohibits discrimination in any aspect
of a credit transaction on the basis of
race, color, religion, national origin, sex,
marital status, age, receipt of income
from public assistance, or exercise of
any right under the Consumer Credit
Protection Act (CCPA) (15 U.S.C. 1601
et seq.). The OCC is responsible for
ensuring that national banks and federal
savings associations comply with those
laws. This information collection is
needed to promote compliance and for
the OCC to fulfill its statutory
responsibilities.
The OCC uses the data to determine
whether an institution treated
applicants consistently and made credit
decisions commensurate with the
applicants’ qualifications and in
compliance with ECOA and CCPA.
The information collection
requirements are as follows:
• 12 CFR 27.3(a) requires national
banks that are required to collect data
on home loans under 12 CFR part 203 1
to present the data on Form FR HMDA–
LAR,2 or in automated format in
accordance with the HMDA–LAR
instructions, and to include one
additional item (the reason for denial)
on the HMDA–LAR. Section 27.3(a) also
lists exceptions to the HMDA–LAR
recordkeeping requirements. Federal
savings associations report this
information to the OCC pursuant to 12
1 This regulation has been transferred to the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) (12
CFR part 1003).
