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 E:\FR\FM\26SEN1.SGM 26SEN1
