Collection identifier: FR Y–9C, FR Y– 9LP, FR Y–9SP, FR Y–9ES, and FR Y– 9CS. OMB control number: 7100–0128. General description of collection: The Board requires bank holding companies, most savings and loan holding companies, securities holding companies, and U.S. intermediate holding companies (collectively, HCs) to provide standardized financial statements through one or more of the FR Y–9 reports. The information collected on the FR Y–9 reports is necessary for the Board to identify emerging financial risks and monitor the safety and soundness of HC operations. The Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies (FR Y–9C) consists of standardized financial statements for HCs similar to the Call Reports filed by commercial banks. The FR Y–9C collects consolidated data and is filed quarterly by top-tier HCs with total consolidated assets of $3 billion or more. The Parent Company Only Financial Statements for Large Holding Companies (FR Y–9LP), must be submitted quarterly by each HC that files the FR Y–9C, as well as by each of its subsidiary HCs.

The instructions to each of the FR Y– 9C, FR Y–9LP, FR Y–9SP, and FR Y– 9ES state that respondent HCs should retain workpapers and other records used in the preparation of the reports for a period of three years following submission. In addition, HCs must maintain in their files a manually signed and attested printout of the data submitted under each form for a period of three years. The Supplement to the Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies (FR Y–9CS) is a voluntary, free-form supplemental report that the Board may utilize to collect critical additional data deemed to be needed from HCs in an expedited manner. The FR Y–9CS data collections are used to assess and monitor emerging issues related to HCs, and the report is intended to supplement the other FR Y– 9 reports. The data requested by the FR Y–9CS would depend on the Board’s data needs in any given situation. For example, changes made by the Financial Accounting Standards Board may introduce into generally accepted accounting principles new data items that are not currently collected by the other FR Y–9 reports.

Current actions: On June 7, 2024, the Board published two separate initial notices in the Federal Register (89 FR 48637 and 89 FR 48655) requesting E:\FR\FM\15NON1.SGM 15NON1 90286 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 221 / Friday, November 15, 2024 / Notices public comment for 60 days on the extension, with revision, of the FR Y– 9 and FR 2886b. The comment period for both notices expired on August 6, 2024, and the Board received one comment letter. After considering the comments received on the proposal, the Board is proceeding with the revisions to the FR Y–9C, FR Y–9LP, and FR 2886b as proposed. Detailed Discussion of Public Comments khammond on DSKJM1Z7X2PROD with NOTICES 1. ASU 2022–02, ‘‘Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic): Troubled Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures’’ The commenter is supportive of the proposed revisions to align the regulatory reporting of loan modifications to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty (LMBEFD) on the FR Y–9C, FR Y–9LP, and FR 2886b in accordance with ASU 2022–02. The commenter noted that, in any event, the Board should not modify the proposed FR Y–9 revisions to bring the reporting in line with the outstanding proposal on the Call Reports.1 The commenter urged the Board to implement ASU 2022–02 across all regulatory reporting forms, including the Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Reports) (FFIEC 031, FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 051). The commenter stated that aligning all regulatory reports with ASU 2022–02 would align with current practices by banking organizations and would reduce burden by eliminating the necessity to develop and maintain dual processes. In response, the Board is proceeding with these revisions as proposed to the FR Y–9C, FR Y–9LP, and FR 2886b. Additionally, on June 7, 2024, the Board published in the Federal Register separate initial notices that invited comment for 60 days on the extension, with revision, of the Financial Statements of U.S. Nonbank Subsidiaries Held by Foreign Banking Organization (FR Y–7N),2 Financial Statements of Foreign Subsidiaries of U.S. Banking Organizations (FR 2314),3 and Financial Statements of U.S. Nonbank Subsidiaries of U.S. Holding Companies (FR Y–11) to propose aligning the reporting of LMBEFD with ASU 2022–02. Additionally, on June 21, 2024, the Board published in the Federal Register an initial notice that invited comment for 60 days on the extension, with revision, of the Capital Assessments and Stress Testing Reports 89 FR 45046 (May 22, 2024). 89 FR 48641 (June 7, 2024). 3 See 89 FR 48639 (June 7, 2024). (FR Y–14A/Q/M),4 to also propose aligning the reporting of LMBEFD with ASU 2022–02. Separate from this notice, the Board may also finalize the FR Y– 7N, FR 2314, FR Y–11, and FR Y–14A/ Q/M notices to align with ASU 2022–02, after the comment period has expired. With regard to aligning the reporting of LMBEFD in accordance with ASU 2022–02 on the Call Report, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Treasury; Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC); and Board (collectively, the agencies) are continuing to evaluate the comments on their September 2023 proposal,5 as well, as the comments received on this proposal. Upon conclusion of their review, the agencies will adopt a standard through a subsequent Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) notice with a public comment period. The commenter stated that the FR Y– 9C’s definition of LMBEFDs should align with the U.S. GAAP definition, specifically Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 310–10 and not scope in any additional modifications. The commenter noted that ASC Subtopic 310–10 requires disclosure of modifications of receivables to borrowers experiencing financial difficulty where the modification results in the form of (1) principal forgiveness, (2) an interest rate reduction, (3) an other-thaninsignificant payment delay, or (4) a term extension (or a combination thereof) to be disclosed for financial reporting purposes. The commenter mentioned that it would be helpful if the Board would explicitly confirm the definitional alignment with U.S GAAP and therefore limit the population of LMBEFD for regulatory reporting purposes to those four modifications. In response to the commenter, the four modifications referenced from ASC Subtopic 310–10 are explicitly included in the FR Y–9Cs definition of LMBEFD and therefore limits the population of LMBEFD accordingly. 2. Other Comments Received The Board also received comments that were not specifically related to the proposed changes in this proposal. The commenter recommended that the Board should propose and implement changes to the reporting of loans to nondepository institutions (NDFIs) and nonpurpose margin loans on the FR Y– 9C to be consistent with the recently finalized Call Report proposal.6 The commenter also recommended that any 1 See 4 See 2 See 5 See VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:11 Nov 14, 2024 89 FR 52042 (June 21, 2024). 88 FR 66933 (September 28, 2023). 6 See 89 FR 45046 (May 22, 2024). Jkt 265001 PO 00000 Frm 00027 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 changes to the definition of ‘Past Due’ should be aligned and implemented concurrently between the FR Y–9, FR 2886b, and the Call Reports. In response, the Board may propose and implement revisions to the FR Y– 9C related to the reporting of NDFI loans and nonpurpose margin loans that would be consistent with the finalized Call Report proposal. Additionally, the Board may also propose changes related to the definition of ‘‘Past Due’’ in the FR Y–9 and FR 2886b that would be aligned and implemented concurrent with the Call Reports. Any future changes to the FR Y–9C and FR 2886b related to the reporting of NDFI loans, nonpurpose margin loans, and the definition of ‘‘Past Due’’ would be subject to the PRA notice and comment process.

to provide standardized financial statements through one or more of the 
FR Y-9 reports. The information collected on the FR Y-9 reports is 
necessary for the Board to identify emerging financial risks and 
monitor the safety and soundness of HC operations.
    The Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies (FR Y-
9C) consists of standardized financial statements for HCs similar to

public comment for 60 days on the extension, with revision, of the FR 
Y-9 and FR 2886b. The comment period for both notices expired on August 
6, 2024, and the Board received one comment letter. After considering 
the comments received on the proposal, the Board is proceeding with the 
revisions to the FR Y-9C, FR Y-9LP, and FR 2886b as proposed.

Detailed Discussion of Public Comments

1. ASU 2022-02, ``Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic): Troubled 
Debt Restructurings and Vintage Disclosures''

    The commenter is supportive of the proposed revisions to align the 
regulatory reporting of loan modifications to borrowers experiencing 
financial difficulty (LMBEFD) on the FR Y-9C, FR Y-9LP, and FR 2886b in 
accordance with ASU 2022-02. The commenter noted that, in any event, 
the Board should not modify the proposed FR Y-9 revisions to bring the 
reporting in line with the outstanding proposal on the Call Reports.\1\ 
The commenter urged the Board to implement ASU 2022-02 across all 
regulatory reporting forms, including the Consolidated Reports of 
Condition and Income (Call Reports) (FFIEC 031, FFIEC 041, and FFIEC 
051). The commenter stated that aligning all regulatory reports with 
ASU 2022-02 would align with current practices by banking organizations 
and would reduce burden by eliminating the necessity to develop and 
maintain dual processes.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See 89 FR 45046 (May 22, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In response, the Board is proceeding with these revisions as 
proposed to the FR Y-9C, FR Y-9LP, and FR 2886b. Additionally, on June 
7, 2024, the Board published in the Federal Register separate initial 
notices that invited comment for 60 days on the extension, with 
revision, of the Financial Statements of U.S. Nonbank Subsidiaries Held 
by Foreign Banking Organization (FR Y-7N),\2\ Financial Statements of 
Foreign Subsidiaries of U.S. Banking Organizations (FR 2314),\3\ and 
Financial Statements of U.S. Nonbank Subsidiaries of U.S. Holding 
Companies (FR Y-11) to propose aligning the reporting of LMBEFD with 
ASU 2022-02. Additionally, on June 21, 2024, the Board published in the 
Federal Register an initial notice that invited comment for 60 days on 
the extension, with revision, of the Capital Assessments and Stress 
Testing Reports (FR Y-14A/Q/M),\4\ to also propose aligning the 
reporting of LMBEFD with ASU 2022-02. Separate from this notice, the 
Board may also finalize the FR Y-7N, FR 2314, FR Y-11, and FR Y-14A/Q/M 
notices to align with ASU 2022-02, after the comment period has 
expired.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ See 89 FR 48641 (June 7, 2024).
    \3\ See 89 FR 48639 (June 7, 2024).
    \4\ See 89 FR 52042 (June 21, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    With regard to aligning the reporting of LMBEFD in accordance with 
ASU 2022-02 on the Call Report, the Office of the Comptroller of the 
Currency (OCC), Treasury; Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC); 
and Board (collectively, the agencies) are continuing to evaluate the 
comments on their September 2023 proposal,\5\ as well, as the comments 
received on this proposal. Upon conclusion of their review, the 
agencies will adopt a standard through a subsequent Paperwork Reduction 
Act (PRA) notice with a public comment period.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \5\ See 88 FR 66933 (September 28, 2023).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The commenter stated that the FR Y-9C's definition of LMBEFDs 
should align with the U.S. GAAP definition, specifically Accounting 
Standards Codification (ASC) Subtopic 310-10 and not scope in any 
additional modifications. The commenter noted that ASC Subtopic 310-10 
requires disclosure of modifications of receivables to borrowers 
experiencing financial difficulty where the modification results in the 
form of (1) principal forgiveness, (2) an interest rate reduction, (3) 
an other-than-insignificant payment delay, or (4) a term extension (or 
a combination thereof) to be disclosed for financial reporting 
purposes. The commenter mentioned that it would be helpful if the Board 
would explicitly confirm the definitional alignment with U.S GAAP and 
therefore limit the population of LMBEFD for regulatory reporting 
purposes to those four modifications. In response to the commenter, the 
four modifications referenced from ASC Subtopic 310-10 are explicitly 
included in the FR Y-9Cs definition of LMBEFD and therefore limits the 
population of LMBEFD accordingly.

2. Other Comments Received

    The Board also received comments that were not specifically related 
to the proposed changes in this proposal. The commenter recommended 
that the Board should propose and implement changes to the reporting of 
loans to nondepository institutions (NDFIs) and nonpurpose margin loans 
on the FR Y-9C to be consistent with the recently finalized Call Report 
proposal.\6\ The commenter also recommended that any changes to the 
definition of `Past Due' should be aligned and implemented concurrently 
between the FR Y-9, FR 2886b, and the Call Reports.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ See 89 FR 45046 (May 22, 2024).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In response, the Board may propose and implement revisions to the 
FR Y-9C related to the reporting of NDFI loans and nonpurpose margin 
loans that would be consistent with the finalized Call Report proposal. 
Additionally, the Board may also propose changes related to the 
definition of ``Past Due'' in the FR Y-9 and FR 2886b that would be 
aligned and implemented concurrent with the Call Reports. Any future 
changes to the FR Y-9C and FR 2886b related to the reporting of NDFI 
loans, nonpurpose margin loans, and the definition of ``Past Due'' 
would be subject to the PRA notice and comment process.
