Abstract: The Examination Questionnaire provides the OCC with information needed to evaluate the effectiveness of the examination process and agency communications. The OCC uses the information to identify problems or trends that may impair examination effectiveness and to improve its service to national banks. The OCC is adding an Exit Survey, which will help the OCC understand the underlying reasons why banks and thrifts decide to leave the system. This non-material change involves requesting certain existing respondents to answer an existing question that they had previously been directed to omit.
