ACTION: Agency information collection

comment request.
AGENCY:
The FDIC seeks to continue
its engagement and collaboration with
innovators in the financial, non-
SUMMARY:
financial, and technology sectors to,
among other things, identify, develop
and promote technology-driven
innovations among community and
other banks in a manner that ensures the
safety and soundness of FDICsupervised and -insured institutions. An
innovation pilot program framework can
provide a regulatory environment in
which the FDIC, in conjunction with
individual proposals collected from
innovators, including banks, will
provide tailored regulatory and
supervisory assistance, when
appropriate, to facilitate the testing of
innovative and advanced technologies,
products, services, systems, or activities.
As part of an innovation pilot program,
innovators may request information
from banks and other members of the
public outside of their normal course of
business. Any information provided by
banks and other members of the public
will be provided on a voluntary basis.
FDIC staff may similarly request
information on a voluntary basis from
banks or other members of the public to
evaluate the products or services
developed in the pilot programs. The
FDIC invites the general public,
including persons who may have an
interest in participating in innovation
pilot programs, and other Federal
agencies to comment on the agency’s
collection of information that may result
from innovators obtaining information
from banks and other members of the
public in connection with innovation
pilot programs, as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. On
September 22, 2021 and September 28,
2021, the FDIC published notices in the
Federal Register requesting comment
for 60 days on a proposal to amend this
information collection. One comment
was received but did not indicate any
changes to be made to the information
collection. The FDIC hereby gives notice
of its plan to submit to OMB a request
to approve the amended information
collection, and again invites comment.
Comments must be submitted on
or before December 29, 2021.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties are
invited to submit written comments to
the FDIC by any of the following
methods:

regulatory and supervisory assistance,
when appropriate, to facilitate the
testing of innovative and advanced
technologies, products, services,
systems, or activities.
The FDIC anticipates that products
developed as part of innovation pilot
programs will improve the efficiency
and effectiveness of bank operations,
and eventually, examinations, while
increasing transparency and ultimately
reducing the cost of regulatory
compliance for participating
institutions. In addition, the FDIC
anticipates that proposals provided in
connection with the innovation pilot
programs will involve cutting-edge
innovations and novel approaches or
applications involving a banking
product, service, system, or activity that
benefits and can lead to better outcomes
for consumers.
As part of an innovation pilot
program, innovators may request
information from banks and other
members of the public outside of their
normal course of business. Any
information provided by banks and
other members of the public will be
provided on a voluntary basis. FDIC
staff may similarly request information
on a voluntary basis from banks or other
members of the public to evaluate the
products or services developed in the
pilot programs. This information is
intended to allow banks and the FDIC
to analyze the health of the overall
banking system, critical financial
sectors, or national, regional or local
economic conditions (i.e., horizontal
analysis). Additionally, bank specific
information may be collected in order to
allow for better insights into current and
escalating risks across all aspects of
banking. In particular, innovators may
request from banks and other members
of the public general ledger information
about all products and services, or a
subset of products and services, systems
or activities. Information requested will
not contain any personally identifiable
information (PII) as defined in OMB
Circular A–130 or include the
disclosure of any financial records or
information which is identified with or
identifiable as being derived from the
financial records of a particular
customer.
The annual burden for this
information collection is estimated to be
40,000 hours. This represents an
increase of hours from the current
burden estimate and also a change in
focus. In particular, when this
information collection was first
obtained, it included the burden
imposed on the innovators and partner
banks. In review of this information
collection, the FDIC has decided to
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 256001
transfer the burden imposed on
innovators to existing information
collection 3064–0072 entitled,
‘‘Acquisition Services Information
Requirements,’’ which is related to the
FDIC’s procurement process. The
remaining hours in this information
collection, which have been updated
and increased, reflect the burden
imposed on banks and other members of
the public in connection with
innovation pilot programs.
