Until this point, the release of this report would reveal confidential commercial information about the borrower (i.e., the fact that the institution borrowed from the discount window, as only borrowers are required to file this form), which is reasonably likely to cause substantial harm to the competitive position of the institution that submitted the report if the institution is prematurely identified. Thus, the report is kept confidential under exemption 4 of the Freedom of Information Act (‘‘FOIA’’), 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4), which protects from disclosure ‘‘trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a person [that is] privileged or confidential.’’ Once the fact that an institution borrowed from the discount window is disclosed, the FR 2046 report is no longer considered confidential in the event a FOIA request is received. Current actions: On July 19, 2019, the Board published a notice in the Federal Register (84 FR 34890) requesting public comment for 60 days on the extension, with revision, of the FR 2046. The Board proposed to update data element definitions to account for the introduction of the FFIEC 051 reporting form. In addition, the face of the FR 2046 report will be updated to (1) reflect all of the legal statutes that authorize the collection of the report; (2) indicate that the report is ‘‘authorized’’ (not ‘‘required’’) by law; and (3) clarify that, if the report is requested under the FOIA, the report will be treated as confidential unless the borrower’s identity has already been disclosed pursuant to the two year lag provided under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.2 The comment period for this notice expired on September 17, 2019. The Board did not receive any comments. The revisions will be implemented as proposed. FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, November 22, 2019.
