Section 214 of the FACT Act (Pub.L.
108-159) requires financial institutions to disclose to consumers
the opportunity to opt out of marketing solicitations from
affiliates. The disclosures and responsive consumer opt-out notices
comprise the elements of this collection of information.

Transactions Act of 2003 (FACT Act)
When this collection was first
created in 2004, the Agencies sponsoring it (including FDIC)
assumed that all supervised institutions (5,236 in the case of the
FDIC) would be affected, and estimated burden accordingly. After
three years of experience the agencies (including FDIC) have
re-estimated the burden associated with this collection using the
more accurate assumption that only institutions with affiliates
will be affected. This has resulted in a significant downward
adjustment in the estimated burden associated with this
collection.
