The FR 4008 is required for certain BHCs to obtain the benefit of being able to purchase or redeem their equity securities. Individual respondents may request that data submitted be kept confidential on a case-by-case basis. If a respondent requests confidential treatment, the Board will determine whether the information is entitled to confidential treatment on an ad hoc basis.
