Estimated annual burden hours: 6,300. General description of report: The Pillar 2 Guidance is intended to assist banking organizations that are subject to the Basel II advanced approaches capital adequacy framework (advanced approaches framework) in applying that framework. Advanced approaches banking organizations are required to use an internal ratings-based approach to calculate regulatory credit risk capital requirements and advanced measurement approaches to calculate regulatory operational risk capital requirements. Banking organizations are required to meet certain qualification requirements before they can use the advanced approaches framework for risk-based capital purposes. The Pillar 2 Guidance sets the expectation that such organizations maintain certain documentation as described in paragraphs 37, 41, 43, and 46 of this portion of the guidance. Legal authorization and confidentiality: The collection of information is authorized pursuant to sections 9 and 11 of the Federal Reserve Act, section 5 of the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, and section 161 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. The FR 4199 is voluntary. Because the collections of information associated with the guidance are maintained by each 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 banking organization. In the event the records are obtained by the Board as part of the 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. In addition, the information may also be kept confidential under exemption 4 of the FOIA, which protects trade secrets and commercial or financial information obtained from a person that is both customarily and actually treated as private by the respondent. Current actions: On June 9, 2021, the Board published a notice in the Federal Register (86 FR 30603) requesting public comment for 60 days on the extension, without revision, of the Pillar 2 Guidance. The comment period for this notice expired on August 9, 2021. The Board did not receive any comments.
