Estimated Average Hours per Response: 1. Estimated annual burden hours: 50. General description of report: This report was implemented in March 1986 as part of the procedures used to administer the Federal Reserve’s Payment System Risk (PSR) policy. A key component of the PSR policy is a limit, or a net debit cap, on an institution’s negative intraday balance in its Reserve Bank account. The Federal Reserve calculates an institution’s net debit cap by applying the multiple associated with the net debit cap category to the institution’s capital. For foreign banking organizations (FBOs), a percentage of the FBO’s capital measure, known as the U.S. capital equivalency, is used to calculate the FBO’s net debit cap. FBOs that wish to establish a positive net debit cap and have a strength of support assessment (SOSA) 1 or SOSA 2 ranking or hold a financial holding company (FHC) designation are required to submit the FR 2225 to their Administrative Reserve Bank (ARB).1 2 Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Federal Reserve Board’s Legal Division has determined that the FR 2225 is authorized by Sections 11(i), 16, and 19(f) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 248(i), 248–1, and 464). An FBO is required to respond in order to obtain or retain a benefit, i.e., in order for the U.S. branch or agency of an FBO to establish and maintain a non-zero net debit cap. Respondents are not asked to submit any data that are not ordinarily disclosed to the public; accordingly, such items would not routinely be protected from disclosure under the 1 The Administrative Reserve Bank is responsible for the administration of Federal Reserve credit, reserves, and risk-management policies for a given institution or other legal entity. 2 Most FBOs that are ranked SOSA 3 do not qualify for a positive net debit cap. In the event a Reserve Bank grants a net debit cap or extends intraday credit to a financially healthy SOSA 3ranked FBO, the financially healthy SOSA 3-ranked FBOs will have their U.S. capital equivalency based on their ‘‘Net due to related depository institutions’’ as reported on the Report of Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks (FFIEC 002), Schedule RAL, Item 5.a, Column A, for the most recent quarter.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, June 30, 2017. Yao-Chin Chao, Assistant Secretary of the Board. Background The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank Act) 1 substantially changed the federal legal framework for financial services providers. Among the changes, the Dodd-Frank Act transferred rulemaking authority for a number of consumer financial protection laws from seven Federal agencies, including the FTC, to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) as of July 21, 2011. This transfer to the CFPB included most provisions of Subtitle A of Title V of the GrammLeach-Bliley Act (GLB Act), with respect to financial institutions described in section 504 of the GLB Act. Pursuant to the GLB Act, only the FTC retains rulemaking authority for its Privacy Rule, 16 CFR 313, for motor vehicle dealers predominantly engaged in the sale and servicing of motor vehicles, the leasing and servicing of motor vehicles, or both.2 The CFPB implemented its own regulations to enforce the Dodd-Frank provisions, including Privacy of Consumer Financial Information (Regulation P), 12 CFR 1016.3 Contemporaneous with that issuance, the CFPB and FTC each had submitted to OMB, and received its approval for, the agencies’ respective burden estimates reflecting their overlapping enforcement jurisdiction. The FTC supplemented its estimates for the enforcement authority exclusive to it regarding the class of motor vehicle dealers noted above. Following the preliminary background information, the discussion in the Burden Statement below continues that analytical framework with appropriate updates or other revisions for instant purposes.

of Foreign Banks (FR 2225; OMB No. 7100-0216).
    On June 15, 1984, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
delegated to the Board authority under the Paperwork Reduction Act 
(PRA) to approve of and assign OMB control numbers to collection of

    Final approval under OMB delegated authority of the extension for 
three years, without revision, of the following report:
    Report Title: Annual Daylight Overdraft Capital Report for U.S. 
Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks.
    Agency Form Number: FR 2225.
    OMB Control Number: 7100-0216.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Respondents: Foreign banking organizations (FBO).
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 50.
    Estimated Average Hours per Response: 1.
    Estimated annual burden hours: 50.
    General description of report: This report was implemented in March 
1986 as part of the procedures used to administer the Federal Reserve's 
Payment System Risk (PSR) policy. A key component of the PSR policy is 
a limit, or a net debit cap, on an institution's negative intraday 
balance in its Reserve Bank account. The Federal Reserve calculates an 
institution's net debit cap by applying the multiple associated with 
the net debit cap category to the institution's capital. For foreign 
banking organizations (FBOs), a percentage of the FBO's capital 
measure, known as the U.S. capital equivalency, is used to calculate 
the FBO's net debit cap.
    FBOs that wish to establish a positive net debit cap and have a 
strength of support assessment (SOSA) 1 or SOSA 2 ranking or hold a 
financial holding company (FHC) designation are required to submit the 
FR 2225 to their Administrative Reserve Bank (ARB).1 2
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ The Administrative Reserve Bank is responsible for the 
administration of Federal Reserve credit, reserves, and risk-
management policies for a given institution or other legal entity.
    \2\ Most FBOs that are ranked SOSA 3 do not qualify for a 
positive net debit cap. In the event a Reserve Bank grants a net 
debit cap or extends intraday credit to a financially healthy SOSA 
3-ranked FBO, the financially healthy SOSA 3-ranked FBOs will have 
their U.S. capital equivalency based on their ``Net due to related 
depository institutions'' as reported on the Report of Assets and 
Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies of Foreign Banks (FFIEC 
002), Schedule RAL, Item 5.a, Column A, for the most recent quarter.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Federal Reserve 
Board's Legal Division has determined that the FR 2225 is authorized by 
Sections 11(i), 16, and 19(f) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 
248(i), 248-1, and 464). An FBO is required to respond in order to 
obtain or retain a benefit, i.e., in order for the U.S. branch or 
agency of an FBO to establish and maintain a non-zero net debit cap. 
Respondents are not asked to submit any data that are not ordinarily 
disclosed to the public; accordingly, such items would not routinely be 
protected from disclosure under the

[[Page 31604]]

Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). To the extent an institution submits 
data it believes are confidential and can establish the potential for 
substantial competitive harm, those responses would be protected from 
disclosure pursuant to exemption 4 of the FOIA (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)), 
under the standards set forth in National Parks & Conservation Ass'n v. 
Morton, 498 F.2d 765 (D.C. Cir. 1974). Such a determination would be 
made on a case-by-case basis in response to a specific request for 
disclosure of the information.
    Current actions: On April 7, 2017, the Board published a notice in 
the Federal Register (82 FR 17005) requesting public comment for 60
