General description of report:
Regulation NN includes certain
reporting, recordkeeping, and disclosure
requirements for banking institutions
that elect to provide foreign currency
exchange services to retail consumers.
The regulation applies to state member
banks, uninsured state-licensed
branches of foreign banks, financial
holding companies, bank holding
companies, savings and loan holding
companies, agreement corporations, and
Edge Act corporations (collectively,
‘‘banking institutions’’) that engage in
retail foreign exchange transactions.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The reporting,
recordkeeping, and disclosure
requirements in Regulation NN are
authorized pursuant to section 2(c)(2)(E)
of the Commodity Exchange Act
(‘‘CEA’’), 7 U.S.C. 2(c)(2)(E). Section
2(c)(2)(E) of the CEA prohibits a United
States financial institution and its
related persons under the supervision of
a Federal regulatory agency, such as the
Board, from offering or entering into
certain types of foreign exchange
transactions with retail customers
except pursuant to a rule or regulation
prescribed by the appropriate Federal
regulatory agency allowing the
transaction under such terms and
conditions as the Federal regulatory
agency shall prescribe.
Regulation NN’s reporting
requirement (12 CFR 240.4),
recordkeeping requirements (12 CFR
240.7, 240.9(b)(2), and 240.13(a)) and
disclosure requirements (240.5(a), 240.6,
240.7, 240.9(b)(2), 240.10, 240.13(a) &
(c)–(d), 240.15, and 240.16(a) and (b))
are mandatory for banking institutions
that engage in retail foreign exchange
transactions.
The reporting requirement under
section 240.4 of Regulation NN requires
a banking institution to provide a prior
written notice to the Board that includes
information concerning customer due
diligence; the policies and procedures
for haircuts to be applied to noncash
margin; information concerning new
product approvals; and information on
addressing conflicts of interest. The
disclosure of this information is
reasonably likely to result in substantial
competitive harm to the banking
institution, and therefore, may be kept
confidential under exemption (b)(4) of
the Freedom of Information Act
(‘‘FOIA’’), which protects ‘‘trade secrets
and commercial or financial information
obtained from a person [that is]
privileged or confidential’’ (5 U.S.C.
552(b)(4)). In addition, the prior written
notice must also include a resolution of
the banking institution’s board of
directors certifying that the institution
PO 00000
Frm 00066
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
22495
has written policies, procedures, and
risk measurement and management
systems and controls in place to ensure
retail foreign exchange transactions are
conducted in a safe and sound manner
and in compliance with Regulation NN.
Generally, this resolution by the board
of directors would not be accorded
confidential treatment. If confidential
treatment is requested by a banking
institution, the Board will review the
request to determine if confidential
treatment is appropriate.
The recordkeeping and disclosures
required under sections 240.5(a), 240.6,
240.7, 240.9(b)(2), 240.10, 240.13(a) &
(c)–(d), 240.15, and 240.16(a) and (b) of
Regulation NN generally are not
submitted to the Board. Accordingly, no
confidentiality issues will normally
arise under the FOIA. In the event such
records or disclosures are obtained by
the Federal Reserve through the
examination or enforcement process,
such information may be kept
confidential under exemption 8 of the
FOIA, which protects information
contained in or related to an
examination of a financial institution (5
U.S.C. 552(b)(8)).

System, May 14, 2019.

26 U.S.C. 6402(c), 31 CFR 285.3, 45 CFR
302.60, and 45 CFR 303.72, which
require state child support agencies to
submit information pertaining to pastdue support cases meeting specific
criteria for the offset of the federal tax
refund of the noncustodial parent; (2) 31
U.S.C. 3701 et seq., 31 U.S.C. 3716(h),
and 31 CFR 285.1, which require state
child support agencies to submit
information pertaining to past-due
support cases meeting specific criteria
for the administrative offset of federal
payments other than federal tax refunds
of the noncustodial parent; (3) 42 U.S.C.
652(k), 42 U.S.C. 654(31), and 22 CFR
51.60, which require state child support
agencies to submit information to OCSE
pertaining to past-due support cases
meeting specific criteria for the denial,
revocation, restriction, or limitation of
the passport of the noncustodial parent;
and (4) 42 U.S.C. 654(31), 42 U.S.C. 664,
31 CFR 285.1, and 31 CFR 285.3, which
require state child support agencies to
submit the Annual Certification Letter
to OCSE asserting that each case
submitted for the Federal Tax Refund
Offset, Administrative Offset, and
Passport Denial programs meets federal
requirements.
