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

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.
Dated at Washington, DC, this 21st day of
July, 2017.
