General Description of Collection:
This is a collection of information
involving submission of information
and various forms by contractors who
desire to do business with the FDIC in
connection with contract proposals
submitted in response to FDIC
solicitations.
In order to obtain competitive
proposals and contracts from vendors
interested in providing goods or services
to the FDIC, the FDIC uses the
Solicitation/Award request (Form 3700/
55). This form is used in connection
with a request for proposal and a
request for price quotations.
In anticipation of a particular contract
solicitation, the FDIC may first conduct
market research to narrow down the list
of potential contractors. This is done
through a request for information (RFI).
Following the RFI process, potential
firms may be notified if they are to be
included in the next phase of the
acquisition process.
The FDIC Background Investigation
Questionnaire for Contractor Personnel
and Subcontractors (Form 1600/04),
Background Investigation Questionnaire
for Contractors (Form1600/07), Integrity
and Fitness Representations and
Certifications (Form 3700/12), and
Leasing Representations and
Certifications (Form 3700/44) are a

result of the implementation of 12 CFR
part 366. The FDIC adopted 12 CFR part
366 pursuant to Section 12(f)(3) and (4)
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12
U.S.C. 1822(f)(3) and (4), and the
rulemaking authority of the FDIC found
at 12 U.S.C. 1819. Pursuant to those
sections and consistent with the goals
and purposes of titles 18 and 41 of the
U.S. Code, the rule establishes the
minimum standards of integrity and
fitness that contractors, subcontractors,
and employees of contractors and
subcontractors must meet if they
perform any service or function on
behalf of the FDIC. This rule includes
regulations governing conflicts of
interest, ethical responsibility, and use
of confidential information in
accordance with 1822(f)(3); and the
prohibitions and the submission of
information in accordance with
1822(f)(4). This rule applies to a person
who submits an offer to perform or
performs, directly or indirectly, a
contractual service or function on behalf
of the FDIC.
In addition, the evaluation of an
offeror’s past performance under formal
contracting procedures is a mandatory
technical evaluation criterion in the
FDIC’s standard solicitation document.
In support of the evaluation of the past
performance criterion, the FDIC Past

Performance Questionnaire (Form 3700/
57) was developed to be submitted by
other government agencies or
commercial businesses who are doing
business, or have done business, with
the contractor that the FDIC is
evaluating.
The FDIC Contractor Representations
and Certifications form (Form 3700/4A)
must be completed by any offeror that
responds to a solicitation for an award
over $100,000.
Finally, in connection with a contract
proposal, the FDIC seeks a commitment
from an FDIC contractor to ensure, to
the maximum extent possible consistent
with applicable law, the fair inclusion
of minorities and women in its
workforce and the workforces of its
applicable subcontractors. The
commitment is asserted by the FDIC
Fair Inclusion of Minorities and Women
form (Form 3700/59), which is a
contract clause implementing Section
342(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street
Reform and Consumer Protection Act
(12 U.S.C. 5452). The clause asserts the
FDIC’s right to request documentation
from the contractor that demonstrates
the contractor’s good faith effort to
include minorities and women in its
workforce and subcontractors’
workforces.

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 159 / Thursday, August 16, 2018 / Notices
The annual burden for this
information collection is estimated to be
7,806 hours. This represents an increase
of 5,472 hours from the current burden
estimate of 2,334 hours. This increase is
not due to any new requirements
imposed by the FDIC. Rather, it is due
to FDIC’s reassessment of the burden
hours associated with the contracting
process and to better account for the
burdens associated with requests for
proposals and price quotations as well
as RFIs.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the collection of information is
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 collection,
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 collection 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.

General description of report: The FR
2420 is a transaction-based report that
collects daily liability data on federal
funds purchased, selected borrowings
from non-exempt entities, Eurodollar
transactions, and time deposits and
certificates of deposits (CDs) from (1)
domestically chartered commercial
banks and savings associations that have
$18 billion or more in total assets as
well as those that have total assets above
$5 billion but less than $18 billion and
meet the activity threshold, (2) U.S.
branches and agencies of foreign banks
with total third-party assets of $2.5
billion or more, and (3) significant
banking organizations that are active
participants in money markets.1 The FR
2420 also collects daily data on
Eurodollar transactions from
International Banking Facilities (IBFs) of
the above-referenced institutions. The
FR 2420 data are used in the publication
of the effective federal funds rate (EFFR)
and overnight bank funding rate (OBFR)
and in analysis of current money market
conditions.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The FR 2420 is
authorized by section 11(a)(2) of the
Federal Reserve Act, which authorizes
the Board to require depository
institutions to make such reports of
their liabilities and assets as the Board
may determine to be necessary or
desirable to enable the Board to
discharge its responsibility to monitor
and control monetary and credit
aggregates (12 U.S.C. 248(a)(2)). The FR
2420 is also authorized pursuant to
section 7(c)(2) of the International
Banking Act (IBA), which provides that
Federal branches and agencies of foreign
banks are subject to section 11(a) of the
Federal Reserve Act as if they were a
state member bank (12 U.S.C.
3105(c)(2)). Section 7(c)(2) of the IBA
also provides that state-licensed
branches and agencies of foreign banks
are subject to the requirement in section
9 of the Federal Reserve Act that they
file reports of condition with the
appropriate Federal Reserve Bank (12
U.S.C. 324). The obligation to comply
with the reporting requirements of FR
2420 is mandatory.
The individual financial institution
information provided by each
respondent would not be otherwise
available to the public. The proposed
revisions, as well as information
currently collected, would be accorded
confidential treatment under the

Questionnaire for Contractors (Form1600/07), Integrity and Fitness
Representations and Certifications (Form 3700/12), and Leasing
Representations and Certifications (Form 3700/44) are a result of the
implementation of 12 CFR part 366. The FDIC adopted 12 CFR part 366
pursuant to Section 12(f)(3) and (4) of the Federal Deposit Insurance
Act, 12 U.S.C. 1822(f)(3) and (4), and the rulemaking authority of the
FDIC found at 12 U.S.C. 1819. Pursuant to those sections and consistent
with the goals and purposes of titles 18 and 41 of the U.S. Code, the
rule establishes the minimum standards of integrity and fitness that
contractors, subcontractors, and employees of contractors and
subcontractors must meet if they perform any service or function on
behalf of the FDIC. This rule includes regulations governing conflicts
of interest, ethical responsibility, and use of confidential
information in accordance with 1822(f)(3); and the prohibitions and the
submission of information in accordance with 1822(f)(4). This rule
applies to a person who submits an offer to perform or performs,
directly or indirectly, a contractual service or function on behalf of
the FDIC.
In addition, the evaluation of an offeror's past performance under
formal contracting procedures is a mandatory technical evaluation
criterion in the FDIC's standard solicitation document. In support of
the evaluation of the past performance criterion, the FDIC Past
Performance Questionnaire (Form 3700/57) was developed to be submitted
by other government agencies or commercial businesses who are doing
business, or have done business, with the contractor that the FDIC is
evaluating.
The FDIC Contractor Representations and Certifications form (Form
3700/4A) must be completed by any offeror that responds to a
solicitation for an award over $100,000.
Finally, in connection with a contract proposal, the FDIC seeks a
commitment from an FDIC contractor to ensure, to the maximum extent
possible consistent with applicable law, the fair inclusion of
minorities and women in its workforce and the workforces of its
applicable subcontractors. The commitment is asserted by the FDIC Fair
Inclusion of Minorities and Women form (Form 3700/59), which is a
contract clause implementing Section 342(c)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (12 U.S.C. 5452). The clause
asserts the FDIC's right to request documentation from the contractor
that demonstrates the contractor's good faith effort to include
minorities and women in its workforce and subcontractors' workforces.

The annual burden for this information collection is estimated to
be 7,806 hours. This represents an increase of 5,472 hours from the
current burden estimate of 2,334 hours. This increase is not due to any
new requirements imposed by the FDIC. Rather, it is due to FDIC's
reassessment of the burden hours associated with the contracting
process and to better account for the burdens associated with requests
for proposals and price quotations as well as RFIs.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information
is 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 collection,
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 collection 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.
