Agency Information Collection Activities: Proposed Collection; Comment Request, 56085-56086 [2018-24592]

Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 218 / Friday, November 9, 2018 / Notices abbreviated version of the RFI rating system consistent with the Board’s practice for BHCs outlined in SR 13–21. An offsite review of the SLHC will be conducted upon receipt of the lead depository institution’s report of examination. The supervisory cycle will be determined by the examination frequency of the lead depository institution and the SLHC will be assigned only a risk management rating and a composite rating. Moreover, SLHCs have been subject to the RFI rating system on indicative basis for the past seven years, which has provided SLHCs the opportunity to adjust to the RFI rating system. The full application of the RFI rating system to small non-commercial and noninsurance SLHCs will not create any new economic impact on small entities. In light of the foregoing, the Board does not believe that this final rule will have a significant economic impact on any small entities and therefore believes that there are no significant alternatives that would reduce the economic impact on small entities. By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, November 2, 2018. Ann Misback, Secretary of the Board.
