Insured financial institutions must
provide quarterly reports of condition and income to the
appropriate regulatory for supervisory, surveillance, regulatory,
research, insurance assessment and informational purposes. On June
17, 2011, OMB approved the agencies' emergency clearance requests
to implement assessment-related reporting revisions to the
Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income (Call Report) for
banks, the Thrift Financial Report (TFR) for savings associations,
the Report of Assets and Liabilities of U.S. Branches and Agencies
of Foreign Banks (FFIEC 002), and the Report of Assets and
Liabilities of a Non-U.S. Branch that is Managed or Controlled by a
U.S. Branch or Agency of a Foreign (Non-U.S.) Bank (FFIEC 002S),
all of which currently are approved collections of information,
effective as of the June 30, 2011, report date. OMB's emergency
approval of the assessment-related reporting revisions extends
through the December 31, 2011, report date. (As separately approved
by OMB, December 31, 2011, is also the final report date as of
which the TFR will be collected; savings associations will begin to
file the Call Report as of the March 31, 2012, report date (76 FR
39986)). Because of the limited approval period associated with
OMB's emergency clearance, the agencies, under the auspices of the
Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC),
requested public comment for 60 days on July 27, 2011, on the
assessment-related reporting revisions to which the emergency
approval pertained (76 FR 44987). After considering the comments
received on these revisions, the transition guidance for the
reporting of subprime and leveraged loans and securities by large
and highly complex institutions that was adopted by the agencies in
connection with their emergency clearance request to OMB has been
extended to April 1, 2012. Furthermore, the FDIC has decided to
review the subprime and leveraged loan definitions in its February
2011 final rule on assessments (76 FR 10672) to determine whether
changes to these definitions could alleviate concerns expressed by
bankers without sacrificing accuracy in risk differentiation for
deposit insurance pricing purposes. The instructions for reporting
subprime and leveraged loans and securities for assessment purposes
in the agencies' regulatory reports will be conformed to any
revised definitions of these terms in the FDIC's assessment
regulations that may result from the FDIC's review process,
including any necessary rulemaking. In addition, the agencies have
made certain other modifications to the assessment-related
reporting revisions covered by OMB's emergency approval in response
to comments received.
