The FR 2420 would be a
transaction-based report that collects daily liability data on
federal funds, Eurodollar transactions, and certificates of
deposits (CDs) from (1) domestically chartered commercial banks and
thrifts that have $26 billion or more in total assets and (2) U.S.
branches and agencies of foreign banks with total third-party
assets of $900 million or more. The FR 2420 data would be used to
support a range of functions including the daily implementation of
monetary policy and the analysis of broad money market
conditions.

The annual reporting burden for
the FR 2420 is estimated to be 45,000 hours. The hourly estimate
for commercial banks and thrifts is higher than the hourly estimate
for U.S. branches and agencies of foreign banks since Part B would
not be reported by branches and agencies.
