SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the

agencies must obtain approval from
OMB for each collection of information
that they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) to include agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. The OCC

Title: Joint Standards for Assessing
the Diversity Policies and Practices of
Entities Regulated by the Agencies and
Diversity Self-Assessment Template for
OCC-Regulated Entities.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0334.
Abstract: This information collection
sets forth standards for OCC-regulated
entities to voluntarily self-assess their
diversity and inclusion policies and
practices and includes a template to
assist with the self-assessment. The
template is now a PDF fillable form,
which replaces the current Excel
spreadsheet template. No other
substantive changes were made to the
template. The template (1) asks for
general information about a respondent;
(2) includes questions and solicits
comments for certain standards about
program successes and challenges; (3)
asks for a description of current
practices for the self-assessment
standards; (4) seeks additional diversity
and inclusion data; and (5) provides an
opportunity for a respondent to provide
other information regarding or comment
on the self-assessment of its diversity
and inclusion policies and practices.
The OCC may use the information
submitted to monitor progress and
trends in the financial services industry
regarding diversity and inclusion in
employment and contracting activities
and to identify and highlight diversity
and inclusion policies and practices that
have been successful. The OCC will
continue to reach out to the entities it
regulates and other interested parties to
discuss diversity and inclusion in the
financial services industry and share
leading practices. Finally, if an OCCregulated entity submits confidential
commercial information that is both
customarily and actually treated as
private by the entity, the entity can
designate the information as private,
and the OCC will treat the selfassessment information as private to the
extent permitted by law, including the
Freedom of Information Act, 5 U.S.C.
552, et seq.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC
is requesting comment on the following
revision to an approved information
collection:
Title: Company-Run Annual Stress
Test Reporting Template and
Documentation for Covered Institutions
with Total Consolidated Assets of $250
Billion or More under the Dodd-Frank
Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0319.
Abstract: Section 165(i)(2) of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act 1 (Dodd-Frank
Act) requires certain financial
companies, including national banks
and federal savings associations, to
conduct annual stress tests 2 and
requires the primary financial regulatory
agency 3 of those financial companies to
issue regulations implementing the
stress test requirements.4 Under section
165(i)(2), a covered institution is
required to submit to the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve
System (Board) and to its primary
financial regulatory agency a report at
such time, in such form, and containing
such information as the primary
financial regulatory agency may
require.5
On October 9, 2012, the OCC
published in the Federal Register a final
rule implementing the section 165(i)(2)

Law 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376, July 2010.

annual stress test requirement.6 This
rule describes the reports and
information collections required to meet
the reporting requirements under
section 165(i)(2). These information
collections will be treated as
confidential (to the extent permitted by
law.7
In 2012, the OCC first implemented
the reporting templates referenced in
the final rule.8 The OCC uses the data
collected to assess the reasonableness of
the stress test results of covered
institutions and to provide forwardlooking information to the OCC
regarding a covered institution’s capital
adequacy. The OCC also may use the
results of the stress tests to determine
whether additional analytical
techniques and exercises could be
appropriate to identify, measure, and
monitor risks at the covered institution.
The stress test results are expected to
support ongoing improvement in a
covered institution’s stress testing
practices with respect to its internal
assessments of capital adequacy and
overall capital planning.
The OCC recognizes that many
covered institutions with total
consolidated assets of $250 billion or
more are required to submit reports
using Comprehensive Capital Analysis
and Review (CCAR) reporting form FR
Y–14A.9 The OCC also recognizes the
Board has made modifications to the FR
Y–14A and, to the extent practical, the
OCC will keep its reporting
requirements consistent with the
Board’s FR Y–14A in order to minimize
burden on covered institutions.10
The OCC’s proposed changes include
only limited updates to reflect the
changes made by the Board, and the
proposed OCC reporting forms will
substantially resemble the forms used
by the OCC last year. Some of the
changes made by the Board are
inapplicable to OCC-regulated
institutions, such as certain changes to
the Board’s capital action assumptions.
The OCC’s proposed changes include
the minimal adjustments necessary to
align line items with placement on the
2022 FR Y–14A. The OCC is also
proposing changes to the description of
covered institutions required to
complete the trading and counterparty
credit risk (CCR) sub-schedules under
the Global Market Shock (GMS) scenario
to more closely align with the Board’s
description. If the Board proposes

reporting forms to minimize
inconsistencies and reduce burden. The
OCC’s proposed new reporting forms

The OCC believes that the systems
covered institutions use to prepare the
FR Y–14 reporting templates to submit
to the Board will also be used to prepare
the reporting templates described in this
notice. Comments submitted in
response to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval. All comments will
become a matter of public record.
Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
OCC, including whether the information
has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection on respondents, including
the use of automated collection

institution's stress testing practices with respect to its internal
assessments of capital adequacy and overall capital planning.

The OCC recognizes that many covered institutions with total
consolidated assets of $250 billion or more are required to submit
reports using Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR)
reporting form FR Y-14A.\9\ The OCC also recognizes the Board has made
modifications to the FR Y-14A and, to the extent practical, the OCC
will keep its reporting requirements consistent with the Board's FR Y-
14A in order to minimize burden on covered institutions.\10\

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The OCC's proposed changes include only limited updates to reflect
the changes made by the Board, and the proposed OCC reporting forms
will substantially resemble the forms used by the OCC last year. Some
of the changes made by the Board are inapplicable to OCC-regulated
institutions, such as certain changes to the Board's capital action
assumptions. The OCC's proposed changes include the minimal adjustments
necessary to align line items with placement on the 2022 FR Y-14A. The
OCC is also proposing changes to the description of covered
institutions required to complete the trading and counterparty credit
risk (CCR) sub-schedules under the Global Market Shock (GMS) scenario
to more closely align with the Board's description. If the Board
proposes
[[Page 74472]]
additional changes to the FR Y-14A reporting forms after the
publication of this notice, the OCC expects to make corresponding
changes to the OCC reporting forms to minimize inconsistencies and
reduce burden. The OCC's proposed new reporting forms and instructions
are available on the OCC's website at https://www.occ.treas.gov/publications-and-resources/forms/dodd-frank-act-stress-test/index-dodd-frank-act-stress-test.html.
Type of Review: Revision. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-
profit.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 4 annually and 4 biennially.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 3,558 hours.
The OCC believes that the systems covered institutions use to
prepare the FR Y-14 reporting templates to submit to the Board will
also be used to prepare the reporting templates described in this
notice. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be
summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments
will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
(a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the
information has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the burden of the
collection of information;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents,
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of
information technology; and
(e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation,
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
