General description of report: The
ECOA prohibits discrimination in any
aspect of a credit transaction because of
race, color, religion, national origin, sex,
marital status, age, receipt of public
assistance, or the fact that the applicant
has in good faith exercised any right
under the Consumer Credit Protection
Act. To aid in implementation of this
prohibition, the statute and Regulation
B subject creditors to various mandatory
disclosure requirements, notification
provisions informing applicants of
action taken on the credit application,
provision of appraisal reports in
connection with mortgages, credit
history reporting, monitoring rules, and
recordkeeping requirements. These
requirements are triggered by specific
events, and disclosures must be
provided within the time periods
established by the statute and
regulation.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: The ECOA authorizes
the CFPB to issue regulations to carry
out the statute’s purposes.1 The ECOA
also directs the CFPB to promulgate
regulations requiring covered entities to
maintain records evidencing
compliance with the statute for at least
one year.2 These regulations impose
disclosure and recordkeeping
requirements on Board-supervised
PO 00000
entities. Compliance with the
recordkeeping and disclosure
requirements of the CFPB’s Regulation B
is mandatory.
The disclosures, records, policies, and
procedures required by Regulation B are
not required to be submitted to the
Board. This information would
generally only be obtained if Federal
Reserve examiners retained a copy as
part of an examination or supervision of
a bank, in which case the information
may be treated as confidential under
exemption 8 of the Freedom of
Information Act (FOIA).3 In addition,
exemptions 4 and 6 of the FOIA may
also apply to certain information
obtained by the Board. Exemption 4
may apply if the information is
confidential commercial or financial
information that is both customarily and
actually treated as private by the
respondent.4 Exemption 6 may apply to
information, the disclosure of which
would ‘‘constitute a clearly unwarranted
invasion of personal privacy.’’ 5
Consultation outside the agency: The
Board consulted with the CFPB
regarding the estimated burden of this
information collection.

System, July 13, 2021.

General description of report: Section
5 of Regulation GG, Prohibition on
Funding of Unlawful internet Gambling,
requires all non-exempt participants in
designated payment systems to establish
and implement policies and procedures
reasonably designed to identify and
block, or otherwise prevent or prohibit,
transactions restricted by the Unlawful
internet Gambling Enforcement Act of
2006.1 In addition, section 5 states that
a participant in a designated payment
system may rely on policies and
procedures established by the
designated payment system if the
system’s policies and procedures
otherwise comply with the requirements
of the regulation.2
Section 6 of Regulation GG sets out
non-exclusive examples of policies and
procedures for each designated payment
system that the Board and the
Department of the Treasury believe are
reasonably designed to prevent or
prohibit restricted transactions for nonexempt participants in the system.3
The internal agency tracking number
previously assigned by the Board to this
information collection was ‘‘FR 4026.’’
The Board has changed the internal
agency tracking number to ‘‘FR GG’’ for
the purpose of consistency.
Legal authorization and
confidentiality: FR GG is authorized by
section 802 of the Unlawful internet
Gambling Enforcement Act, which
permits the Board to prescribe
regulations requiring designated
payment systems and participants
therein to establish policies and
procedures to identify and block or
otherwise prevent and prohibit
restricted transactions (31 U.S.C.
5364(a)). The obligation to respond is
mandatory.
The policies and procedures required
by Regulation GG are not required to be
submitted to the Board. To the extent
such policies and procedures are
obtained by the Board through the
examination process, they may be kept
confidential under exemption 8 of the
Freedom of Information Act, which
protects information contained in or
related to an examination of a financial
institution.4
Current actions: On March 8, 2021,
the Board published a notice in the
Federal Register (86 FR 13380)
requesting public comment for 60 days
on the extension, without revision, of
