Estimated number of respondents: 18. Estimated average hours per response: 10 hours. Estimated annual burden hours: 180. General description of report: In January 2007, the Board, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the former Office of Thrift Supervision published guidance titled, ‘‘Interagency Statement on Sound Practices Concerning Elevated Risk PO 00000 Frm 00032 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 40051 Complex Structured Finance Activities.’’ The Interagency Statement provides that financial institutions supervised by the Board should establish and maintain written policies and procedures for identifying, evaluating, assessing, documenting, and controlling risks associated with certain complex structured finance transactions (CSFTs), and should retain certain documents related to elevated risk CSFTs. For purposes of the Board’s review, the term ‘‘financial institution’’ refers to state member banks, bank holding companies (other than foreign banking organizations), SLHCs, and U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks. Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Board is authorized to issue the recordkeeping guidance associated with the Interagency Statement with respect to state member banks pursuant to sections 9(7), 11(a), 21(4), and 25(4) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 325, 248(a), 483, and 602); with respect to bank holding companies pursuant to section 5(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1844(c)); with respect to savings and loan holding companies pursuant to section 10(b) and (g) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act (12 U.S.C. 1467a(b) and (g)); and with respect to U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks pursuant to sections 7(c) and 13(a) of the International Banking Act of 1978 (12 U.S.C. 3105(c) and 3108(a)). Because the recordkeeping provisions are contained within guidance, which is nonbinding, these provisions are voluntary. There are no reporting forms associated with the recordkeeping provisions of the Interagency Statement. Because any policies, procedures, or other records that were voluntarily created pursuant to the guidance in the Interagency Statement would be maintained at each financial institution, the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) would only be implicated if the Board obtained such records as part of the examination or supervision of a financial institution. In the event the records are obtained by the Board as part of an examination or supervision of a financial institution, this information may be considered confidential pursuant to exemption 8 of the FOIA, which protects information contained in ‘‘examination, operating, or condition reports’’ obtained in the bank supervisory process (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)). In addition, the information may also be kept confidential under exemption 4 of the FOIA, which protects trade secrets or confidential commercial or financial information that is reasonably likely to E:\FR\FM\13AUN1.SGM 13AUN1 40052 Federal Register / Vol. 84, No. 156 / Tuesday, August 13, 2019 / Notices result in substantial competitive harm if disclosed (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)).

Final Approval Under OMB Delegated Authority of the Extension for Three 
Years, Without Revision, of the Following Information Collection

    Report title: Recordkeeping Provisions Associated with the 
Interagency Statement on Complex Structured Finance Activities.
    Agency form number: FR 4022.
    OMB control number: 7100-0311.
    Frequency: Annual.
    Respondents: State member banks, bank holding companies (other than 
foreign banking organizations), savings and loan holding companies 
(SLHCs), and U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks.
    Estimated number of respondents: 18.
    Estimated average hours per response: 10 hours.
    Estimated annual burden hours: 180.
    General description of report: In January 2007, the Board, the 
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit 
Insurance Corporation, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and the 
former Office of Thrift Supervision published guidance titled, 
``Interagency Statement on Sound Practices Concerning Elevated Risk 
Complex Structured Finance Activities.'' The Interagency Statement 
provides that financial institutions supervised by the Board should 
establish and maintain written policies and procedures for identifying, 
evaluating, assessing, documenting, and controlling risks associated 
with certain complex structured finance transactions (CSFTs), and 
should retain certain documents related to elevated risk CSFTs. For 
purposes of the Board's review, the term ``financial institution'' 
refers to state member banks, bank holding companies (other than 
foreign banking organizations), SLHCs, and U.S. branches and agencies 
of foreign banks.
    Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Board is authorized to 
issue the recordkeeping guidance associated with the Interagency 
Statement with respect to state member banks pursuant to sections 9(7), 
11(a), 21(4), and 25(4) of the Federal Reserve Act (12 U.S.C. 325, 
248(a), 483, and 602); with respect to bank holding companies pursuant 
to section 5(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1844(c)); 
with respect to savings and loan holding companies pursuant to section 
10(b) and (g) of the Home Owners' Loan Act (12 U.S.C. 1467a(b) and 
(g)); and with respect to U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks 
pursuant to sections 7(c) and 13(a) of the International Banking Act of 
1978 (12 U.S.C. 3105(c) and 3108(a)). Because the recordkeeping 
provisions are contained within guidance, which is nonbinding, these 
provisions are voluntary. There are no reporting forms associated with 
the recordkeeping provisions of the Interagency Statement. Because any 
policies, procedures, or other records that were voluntarily created 
pursuant to the guidance in the Interagency Statement would be 
maintained at each financial institution, the Freedom of Information 
Act (FOIA) would only be implicated if the Board obtained such records 
as part of the examination or supervision of a financial institution. 
In the event the records are obtained by the Board as part of an 
examination or supervision of a financial institution, this information 
may be considered confidential pursuant to exemption 8 of the FOIA, 
which protects information contained in ``examination, operating, or 
condition reports'' obtained in the bank supervisory process (5 U.S.C. 
552(b)(8)). In addition, the information may also be kept confidential 
under exemption 4 of the FOIA, which protects trade secrets or 
confidential commercial or financial information that is reasonably 
likely to

[[Page 40052]]

result in substantial competitive harm if disclosed (5 U.S.C. 
552(b)(4)).
    Current actions: On May 15, 2019, the Board published a notice in 
the Federal Register (84 FR 21778) requesting public comment for 60 
days on the extension, without revision, of the Recordkeeping 
Provisions Associated with the Interagency Statement on Complex 
Structured Finance Activities. The comment period for this notice 
expired on July 15, 2019. The Board did not receive any comments.
