The information collections apply to
mutual holding companies and to their subsidiaries. The collections
are necessary to (1) fulfill statutory requirements; and (2)
facilitate review of transactions presenting risks.
OTS is citing a reduction in
the burden due to a reduction in the number respondents. The OTS
analyzes the submitted information to determine whether the
applicant meets the statutory and regulatory criteria to form a
mutual holding company and/or perform minority stock issuances.
Information provided in the notice or application is essential if
the OTS is to fulfill its mandate to prevent insider abuse and
unsafe and unsound practices by mutual holding companies and their
subsidiaries. Minority issuances are not feasible without an
application process that includes the review of such
information.
