Insured financial institutions must
provide quarterly reports of condition and income (Call Reports) to
the appropriate regulatory agency for supervisory, surveillance,
regulatory, research, insurance assessment and informational
purposes. Section 7 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act requires
all insured depository institutions to submit four "reports of
condition" each year to their primary federal bank supervisory
authority, i.e., the FDIC, the OCC, or the FRB, as appropriate.
FDIC-supervised institutions, i.e., insured state nonmember banks
and state savings associations, submit these reports to the FDIC.
The FDIC uses the quarterly Call Reports to monitor the condition
and performance of individual institutions and the industry as a
whole. In addition, Call Reports provide the FDIC with the most
current statistical data available for evaluating depository
institution corporate applications such as mergers; identifying
areas of focus for both on-site and off-site examinations;
calculating all insured institutions' deposit insurance and
Financing Corporation assessments; and other public purposes.
Within the Call Report information collection system, separate sets
of forms apply to institutions that have domestic and foreign
offices (FFIEC 031) and to institutions with domestic offices only
(FFIEC 041). The proposed revisions to the Call Report that are the
subject of this request, which would involve quarterly reporting
unless otherwise indicated, and their effective dates are
summarized as follows • Effective March 31, 2014, institutions
would begin to report: o Information about international remittance
transfers, which would be collected initially as of March 31, 2014,
and, in general, semiannually thereafter as of each June 30 and
December 31 (new item 16 of Schedule RC-M, Memoranda). All
institutions would respond to yes-no questions about remittance
transfer activity, and institutions with more than 100 transactions
per calendar year would report the estimated number and dollar
value of remittance transfers; o Any trade names (other than an
institution's legal title) used to identify physical offices and
the addresses of any public-facing Internet Web sites (other than
the institution's primary Internet Web site address, which is
currently reported) at which the institution accepts or solicits
deposits from the public (revised item 8 of Schedule RC-M); o A
response to a yes-no question asking whether the reporting
institution offers any deposit account products (other than time
deposits) primarily intended for consumers (new Memorandum item 5
of Schedule RC-E, Deposit Liabilities); and o For institutions with
$1 billion or more in total assets that offer one or more deposit
account products (other than time deposits) primarily intended for
consumers, the total balances of these consumer deposit account
products (new Memorandum items 6 and 7 of Schedule RC-E). •
Effective March 31, 2015, institutions with $1 billion or more in
total assets that offer one or more deposit account products (other
than time deposits) primarily intended for consumers would begin to
report the amount of income earned from each of three categories of
service charges on their consumer deposit account products (new
Memorandum item 15 of Schedule RI, Income Statement). This income
is included in total year-to-date service charges on deposit
accounts, which institutions currently report in Schedule RI, item
5.b. The Federal Reserve Board (FRB) and the Office of the
Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) are also submitting these changes
for OMB review for the banks and savings associations under their
supervision.

The change in burden associated
with this submission is caused by the proposed changes to the Call
Report that are the subject of this submission. At present, there
are 4,325 FDIC-supervised institutions. As mentioned in Item 13
above, the FDIC estimates that the overall effect of the proposed
revisions to the Call Report across the full range of institutions
under its supervision would be an average increase in the burden
estimate of nearly three quarters of an hour per response. The
analysis of the change in burden for the Call Report as it is
proposed to be revised effective March 31, 2014, and March 31,
2015, is as follows: Currently approved burden 726,946 hours
Adjustment (change in use) 0 hours Revisions to content of report
(program change) + 12,629 hours Requested (new) burden 739,575
hours Net change in burden + 12,629 hours
