improve accountability for the use of
universal service funding. The
comparability requirements will ensure
that rates are reasonably comparable for
voice as well as broadband service,
between urban and rural, insular, and
high cost areas. Rates must be
reasonably comparable so that
consumers in rural, insular, and high
cost areas have meaningful access to
these services. This Order requires a
statistically valid sample of urban
providers to complete a survey with
information regarding the types and
prices of their offerings. The
Commission conducts this survey
through an online reporting form
accessible to those urban providers of
fixed voice and broadband services that
are chosen to participate.

General description of report: The FR
Y–9C consists of standardized financial
statements similar to the Call Reports
filed by commercial banks.1 The FR Y–
9C collects consolidated data from HCs
and is filed quarterly by top-tier HCs
with total consolidated assets of $3
billion or more.2
The FR Y–9LP, which collects parent
company only financial data, must be
submitted by each HC that files the FR
Y–9C, as well as by each of its
subsidiary HCs.3 The report consists of
standardized financial statements.
The FR Y–9SP is a parent company
only financial statement filed
semiannually by HCs with total
consolidated assets of less than $3
billion. In a banking organization with
total consolidated assets of less than $3
billion that has tiered HCs, each HC in
the organization must submit, or have
the top-tier HC submit on its behalf, a
separate FR Y–9SP. This report is
designed to obtain basic balance sheet
and income data for the parent
company, and data on its intangible
assets and intercompany transactions.
The FR Y–9ES is filed annually by
each employee stock ownership plan
(ESOP) that is also an HC. The report
collects financial data on the ESOP’s
benefit plan activities. The FR Y–9ES
consists of four schedules: A Statement
of Changes in Net Assets Available for
Benefits, a Statement of Net Assets
Available for Benefits, Memoranda, and
Notes to the Financial Statements.
The FR Y–9CS is a free-form
supplemental report that the Board may
utilize to collect critical additional data
1 The Call Reports consist of the FFIEC 051, as
well as the Consolidated Reports of Condition and
Income for a Bank with Domestic Offices Only
(FFIEC 041) and the Consolidated Reports of
Condition and Income for a Bank with Domestic
and Foreign Offices (FFIEC 031).
2 Under certain circumstances described in the FR
Y–9C’s General Instructions, HCs with assets under
$3 billion may be required to file the FR Y–9C.
3 A top-tier HC may submit a separate FR Y–9LP
on behalf of each of its lower-tier HCs.
