SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title of Collection: Making Ends Meet
Survey.
OMB Control Number: 3170–0066.
Type of Review: Request for approval
of a generic information collection
under an existing generic information
collection plan.
Affected Public: Individuals or
households.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
2,000.
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 1,600.
Abstract: Under the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act Public Law 111–203, the Bureau is
charged with researching, analyzing,
and reporting on topics relating to the
Bureau’s mission, including consumer
behavior, consumer awareness, and
developments in markets for consumer
financial products and services. To
improve its understanding of how
consumers engage with financial
markets, the Bureau has successfully
used the Consumer Credit Panel (CCP),
a proprietary sample dataset from one of
the national credit reporting agencies, as
a frame to survey people about their
experiences in consumer credit markets.
The Bureau seeks to obtain approval for
a new survey named ‘‘Making Ends
Meet’’ that will solicit information on
the consumer’s experience related to
household financial shocks and how
households respond to those shocks,
including the use of credit products that
do and do not appear in the CCP. This
project will support the Bureau’s
‘‘household balance sheets’’ research
agenda, which seeks to monitor
developments in consumers’ financial

situations, related changes in their use
of financial products, and the effects
that these decisions have on their
balance sheets. All research under this
collection will be related to the
household balance sheet agenda, and,
thus, will be for general, formative, and
informational research on consumer
financial markets and consumers’ use of
financial products and will not directly
provide the basis for specific
policymaking at the Bureau.
Request for Comments: The Bureau is
publishing this notice and soliciting
comments directed to the Office of
management and Budget on: (a)
Whether the collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the Bureau, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the
Bureau’s estimate of the burden of the
collection of information, including the
validity of the methods and the
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.
Comments submitted in response to this
notice will be reviewed by OMB as part
of its review of this request. All
comments will become a matter of
public record.

to establish an Office of Minority and
Women Inclusion (OMWI) to be
responsible for all matters of the Agency
relating to diversity in management,
employment, and business activities.
The Act also instructed each OMWI
Director to develop standards for
assessing the diversity policies and
practices of entities regulated by the
Agency. The Agencies worked together
to develop joint standards (Joint
Standards) and, on June 10, 2015, they
jointly published in the Federal

Agencies will use the information

and trends in the financial services
industry with regard to diversity and
inclusion in employment and
contracting activities, as well as to
identify and highlight those policies and
practices that have been successful. The
primary federal financial regulator will
share information with other agencies,
when appropriate, to support
coordination of efforts and to avoid
duplication. The Agencies may publish
information disclosed to them, such as
best practices, in any form that does not
identify a particular entity or individual

information. This is a routine request for
OMB to renew its approval of the

(Request for a New OMB Control

Abstract: The Dodd-Frank Wall Street

relies on empirical evidence and
rigorous research to improve its

markets for regulatory purposes. This
PRA clearance seeks approval from
OMB to conduct a web survey of 8,000
individuals as part of the Bureau’s
research on debt collection disclosures.
The survey will explore consumer
comprehension and decision making in
response to debt collection disclosure
forms. The survey will oversample
respondents who have had experience
with debt collection in the past.
Request for Comments: The Bureau
issued a 60-day Federal Register notice
on June 5, 2017, 82 FR 25779, Docket
