SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Emergency Capital Investment
Program Initial Supplemental Report
and Quarterly Supplemental Report.
OMB Control Number: 1505–0275.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Description: Authorized by the
Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021,
the Emergency Capital Investment
Program (ECIP) was created to
encourage low- and moderate-income
community financial institutions to
augment their efforts to support small
businesses and consumers in their
communities. Under the program,
Treasury will provide approximately
$8.75 billion in capital directly to
depository institutions that are certified
Community Development Financial
Institutions (CDFIs) or minority
depository institutions (MDIs) to, among
other things, provide loans, grants, and
forbearance for small businesses,
minority-owned businesses, and
consumers, especially in low-income
and underserved communities, that may
be disproportionately impacted by the
economic effects of the COVID–19
pandemic.
ECIP capital is eligible for a reduction
in the dividend or interest rate payable
on the instruments depending on the
increase in lending by the recipients of
the capital (Recipients) within minority,
rural, and urban low-income and
underserved communities and to lowand moderate-income borrowers over a
baseline amount of lending. Recipients
are required to submit an Initial
Supplemental Report and quarterly
reports to determine their increase in
lending to the specified targeted
communities over the baseline and
therefore their qualification for rate
reductions on the dividend or interest
rates payable on the ECIP instruments.
In addition, these reports will collect
data necessary for Treasury and other
oversight bodies to evaluate program
outcomes over time. Treasury uses the
Initial Supplemental Report to establish
a baseline amount of qualified lending.
Treasury proposes to continue use of
this form to collect additional or
restated data on a Recipient’s amount of
baseline lending, such as in connection
with mergers, acquisitions, or other
business combinations. Instructions
may be modified from time to time to
accommodate these uses. Treasury
proposes to use the Quarterly
Supplemental Report to collect the
information required to establish a
