* The number of Large Banks reporting decreased from 253 to 243. However, 150 Small Banks are voluntarily collecting and reporting data,
and the number of respondents has been adjusted to reflect this.
General Description of Collection: The
Community Reinvestment Act
regulation requires the FDIC to assess
the record of banks and thrifts in
helping meet the credit needs of their
entire communities, including low- and
moderate-income neighborhoods,
consistent with safe and sound
operations; and to take this record into
account in evaluating applications for
mergers, branches, and certain other
corporate activities.
There is no change in the method or
substance of the collection. The overall
increase in burden hours is a result of
an increase in the number of Small
Banks electing to voluntarily respond in
certain categories. The increase is also,
in small part, due to an adjustment in
the agency’s estimate of the time
required to submit strategic plan
applications from 275 hours per
respondent to 400 hours per respondent.

1 According
mstockstill on DSK30JT082PROD with NOTICES
to data from the Federal Reserve’s National Information Center (NIC), there were 3,063 FDIC supervised institutions with an affiliate as of March 31st, 2017. This is an increase of 23 institutions from March 31st, 2014, which had 3,040 institutions with affiliates. Based on
the research and NIC data, it is reasonable to estimate that the population of institutions with affiliates will continue to grow by approximately 23
institutions over the next three years. Thus, FDIC anticipates approximately 8 institutions per year will have an implementation burden.
2 The number of respondents facing ongoing burden remains unchanged at 990.
3 The FDIC estimates that 95.4% of the 990 banks impacted by this information collection are community banks having an average of 12,098
consumers and the remaining 4.6% are non-community (larger) banks having an average of 124,745 consumers. The FDIC estimates that 5% of
the 17,140,540 estimated consumers at these 990 institutions (857,027 consumers) elect to Opt-Out of affiliate marketing information sharing.
General Description of Collection:
Section 214 of the FACT Act requires
financial institutions that wish to share
information about consumers with their
affiliates, to inform such consumers that
they have the opportunity to opt out of
such marketing solicitations. The
disclosure notices and consumer
responses thereto comprise the elements
of this collection of information.
There is no change in the method or
substance of this information collection.
There has been a net increase in the
estimated total annual burden primarily
because of an upward adjustment in the
agency’s estimate of the number of
consumers at FDIC-supervised
institutions that elect to opt-out of
affiliate marketing information sharing.
The increase in burden due to the
adjustment in the estimated number of
consumers affected was offset by the
fact that most banks have completed the
implementation phase of the
information collection; the estimated

General Description of Collection:
This information collection implements
section 742(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Act
(7 U.S.C. 2(c)(2)(E) and FDIC regulations
governing retail foreign exchange
transactions as set forth at 12 CFR part
349, subpart B. The regulation allows
banking organizations under FDIC
supervision to engage in off-exchange
transactions in foreign currency with
retail customers provided they comply
with various reporting, recordkeeping
and third-party disclosure requirements
specified in the rule. If an institution
elects to conduct such transactions,
compliance with the information
collection is mandatory.
Reporting Requirements—Part 349,
subpart B requires that, prior to
initiating a retail foreign exchange
business; a banking institution must
provide the FDIC with a notice
certifying that the institution has
written policies and procedures, and
risk measurement and management
systems and controls in place to ensure
that retail foreign exchange transactions
are conducted in a safe and sound
manner. The institution must also
provide information about it intends to
manage customer due diligence, new
product approvals and haircuts applied
to noncash margin.
Recordkeeping Requirements—Part
349 subpart B requires that institutions
engaging in retail foreign exchange
transactions keep full, complete and
systematic records of account, financial
ledger, transaction, memorandum orders
and post execution allocations of
bunched orders. In addition, institutions
are required to maintain records
regarding their ratio of profitable
accounts, possible violations of law,
records of noncash margin and monthly
statements and confirmations issued.
Disclosure Requirements—The
regulation requires that, before opening
an account that will engage in retail
foreign exchange transactions, a banking
institution must obtain from each retail
foreign exchange customer an
acknowledgement of receipt and
understanding of a written disclosure
specified in the rule and of disclosures
about the banking institution’s fees and
other charges and of its profitable
accounts ratio. The institution must also
VerDate Sep<11>2014
19:17 Jul 26, 2017
Jkt 241001
provide monthly statements to each
retail foreign exchange customer and
must send confirmation statements
following every transaction. The
customer dispute resolution provisions
of the regulation require certain
endorsements, acknowledgements and
signature language as well as the timely
provision of a list of persons qualified
to handle a customer’s request for
arbitration.
There is no change in the method or
substance of the collection. At present
no FDIC-supervised institution is
engaging in activities that would make
them subject to the information
collection requirements. FDIC originally
estimated that 3 institutions would be
impacted by the rule. The agency is
reducing the estimated number of
respondents to one (1) as a placeholder
in case an institution elects to engage in
covered activities in the future. There
has been no change in the frequency of
response or in the estimated number of
hours required to respond. Because of
the reduction in the estimated number
of respondents from three (3) to one (1),
the estimated annual burden has
decreased.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the collections of information are
necessary for the proper performance of
the FDIC’s functions, including whether
the information has practical utility; (b)
the accuracy of the estimates of the
burden of the information collections,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collections of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology. All comments will become
a matter of public record.

* The number of Large Banks reporting decreased from 253 to 243. However, 150 Small Banks are voluntarily
collecting and reporting data, and the number of respondents has been adjusted to reflect this.
General Description of Collection: The Community Reinvestment Act
regulation requires the FDIC to assess the record of banks and thrifts
in helping meet the credit needs of their entire communities, including
low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, consistent with safe and sound
operations; and to take this record into account in evaluating
applications for mergers, branches, and certain other corporate
activities.
There is no change in the method or substance of the collection.
The overall increase in burden hours is a result of an increase in the
number of Small Banks electing to voluntarily respond in certain
categories. The increase is also, in small part, due to an adjustment
in the agency's estimate of the time required to submit strategic plan
applications from 275 hours per respondent to 400 hours per respondent.
2. Title: Affiliate Marketing Consumer Opt-Out Notices.
OMB Number: 3064-0149.
Form Number: None.

associations that have affiliates and consumers that have a
relationship with the foregoing.

\1\ According to data from the Federal Reserve's National Information Center (NIC), there were 3,063 FDIC
supervised institutions with an affiliate as of March 31st, 2017. This is an increase of 23 institutions from
March 31st, 2014, which had 3,040 institutions with affiliates. Based on the research and NIC data, it is
reasonable to estimate that the population of institutions with affiliates will continue to grow by
approximately 23 institutions over the next three years. Thus, FDIC anticipates approximately 8 institutions
per year will have an implementation burden.
\2\ The number of respondents facing ongoing burden remains unchanged at 990.
\3\ The FDIC estimates that 95.4% of the 990 banks impacted by this information collection are community banks
having an average of 12,098 consumers and the remaining 4.6% are non-community (larger) banks having an
average of 124,745 consumers. The FDIC estimates that 5% of the 17,140,540 estimated consumers at these 990
institutions (857,027 consumers) elect to Opt-Out of affiliate marketing information sharing.
General Description of Collection: Section 214 of the FACT Act
requires financial institutions that wish to share information about
consumers with their affiliates, to inform such consumers that they
have the opportunity to opt out of such marketing solicitations. The
disclosure notices and consumer responses thereto comprise the elements
of this collection of information.
There is no change in the method or substance of this information
collection. There has been a net increase in the estimated total annual
burden primarily because of an upward adjustment in the agency's
estimate of the number of consumers at FDIC-supervised institutions
that elect to opt-out of affiliate marketing information sharing. The
increase in burden due to the adjustment in the estimated number of
consumers affected was offset by the fact that most banks have
completed the implementation phase of the information collection; the
estimated ongoing time per response for most affected institutions
decreasing from 18 hours at implementation to 2 hours ongoing.

General Description of Collection: This information collection
implements section 742(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Act (7 U.S.C. 2(c)(2)(E)
and FDIC regulations governing retail foreign exchange transactions as
set forth at 12 CFR part 349, subpart B. The regulation allows banking
organizations under FDIC supervision to engage in off-exchange
transactions in foreign currency with retail customers provided they
comply with various reporting, recordkeeping and third-party disclosure
requirements specified in the rule. If an institution elects to conduct
such transactions, compliance with the information collection is
mandatory.
Reporting Requirements--Part 349, subpart B requires that, prior to
initiating a retail foreign exchange business; a banking institution
must provide the FDIC with a notice certifying that the institution has
written policies and procedures, and risk measurement and management
systems and controls in place to ensure that retail foreign exchange
transactions are conducted in a safe and sound manner. The institution
must also provide information about it intends to manage customer due
diligence, new product approvals and haircuts applied to noncash
margin.
Recordkeeping Requirements--Part 349 subpart B requires that
institutions engaging in retail foreign exchange transactions keep
full, complete and systematic records of account, financial ledger,
transaction, memorandum orders and post execution allocations of
bunched orders. In addition, institutions are required to maintain
records regarding their ratio of profitable accounts, possible
violations of law, records of noncash margin and monthly statements and
confirmations issued.
Disclosure Requirements--The regulation requires that, before
opening an account that will engage in retail foreign exchange
transactions, a banking institution must obtain from each retail
foreign exchange customer an acknowledgement of receipt and
understanding of a written disclosure specified in the rule and of
disclosures about the banking institution's fees and other charges and
of its profitable accounts ratio. The institution must also provide
monthly statements to each retail foreign exchange customer and must
send confirmation statements following every transaction. The customer
dispute resolution provisions of the regulation require certain
endorsements, acknowledgements and signature language as well as the
timely provision of a list of persons qualified to handle a customer's
request for arbitration.
There is no change in the method or substance of the collection. At
present no FDIC-supervised institution is engaging in activities that
would make them subject to the information collection requirements.
FDIC originally estimated that 3 institutions would be impacted by the
rule. The agency is reducing the estimated number of respondents to one
(1) as a placeholder in case an institution elects to engage in covered
activities in the future. There has been no change in the frequency of
response or in the estimated number of hours required to respond.
Because of the reduction in the estimated number of respondents from
three (3) to one (1), the estimated annual burden has decreased.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collections of information
are necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions,
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collections,
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collections of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All
comments will become a matter of public record.
