Note: The annual burden estimate for a given collection is calculated in two steps. First, the total number of
  annual responses is calculated as the whole number closest to the product of the annual number of respondents
  and the annual number of responses per respondent. Then, the total number of annual responses is multiplied by
  the time per response and rounded to the nearest hour to obtain the estimated annual burden for that
  collection. This rounding ensures the annual burden hours in the table are consistent with the values recorded
  in the OMB's regulatory tracking system.

  the time per response and rounded to the nearest hour to obtain the estimated annual burden for that
  collection. This rounding ensures the annual burden hours in the table are consistent with the values recorded
  in the OMB's regulatory tracking system.

    OMB No. 3064-0184 Total Estimated Annual Burden (Hours): 4,049.
    General Description of Collection: Section 13 of the Bank Holding 
Company Act of 1956 (section 13) contains certain restrictions on the 
ability of a banking entity to engage in proprietary trading and to 
have certain interests in, or relationships with, a hedge fund or 
private equity fund. The FDIC's regulations at 12 CFR part 351 (part 
351) implement section 13 with respect to FDIC-supervised insured 
depository institutions (IDIs). The requirements in part 351 do not 
apply to FDIC-supervised IDIs that have, and if every company that 
controls it has, total consolidated assets of $10 billion or less and 
total trading assets and trading liabilities, that are five percent or 
less of total consolidated assets.\1\ Part 351 contains provisions that 
constitute information collections (ICs) under the Paperwork Reduction 
Act corresponding to policies, rules, and regulations regarding 
periodic reporting requirements, documentation of trading activities 
and compliance programs, and various other recordkeeping and disclosure 
requirements for FDIC-supervised IDIs that are subject to the 
requirements of part 351 (covered bank).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 12 CFR 351.2(r)(2).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    There is no change in the substance or methodology of this 
information collection. The estimated annual burden for this 
information collection is 4,049 hours. This is an increase of 856 hours 
from the total estimated annual burden of 3,193 hours submitted in 
2020. As was the case in 2020, the FDIC assumes that all covered banks 
have completed the implementation portions of this information 
collection. Thus, the current estimated annual implementation burden is 
identical to the estimated annual implementation burden in 2020 (1,664 
hours).
    The increase in burden is driven entirely by the increase in the 
total annual ongoing burden which is now estimated to be 2,385 hours, 
an increase of 856 hours from the estimated annual burden used in 2020 
(1,529 hours). Specifically, the number of covered banks considered to 
have ``significant'' trading assets and liabilities has increased from 
one in 2020 to two in the current estimate. Generally, the ICs that 
apply only to these covered banks--such as those under Sec. Sec.  
351.20(a)--351.20(e)--have the highest estimated time per response, and 
an increase in the number of respondents will lead to a correspondingly 
large increase in the total estimated annual burden. This increase is 
attenuated by a decrease in the total number of covered banks with 
``moderate'' or ``significant'' trading assets and liabilities from ten 
in the 2020 ICR to seven in this ICR, which has led to a corresponding 
decrease in the total estimated annual burden for those line items that 
apply to all covered banks with ``moderate'' or ``significant'' trading 
assets and liabilities. The total estimated annual hourly burden for 
both implementation and ongoing compliance is shown in Tables 1 and 2 
above.

Request for Comment

    Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information 
is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, 
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, 
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.
