Abstract: The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), along with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board), Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), National Credit Union Administration (NCUA), Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) (collectively, the Agencies) have jointly issued a final rule to implement newly-adopted statutory requirements to be applied by States in the registration and supervision of appraisal management companies (AMCs). An AMC is an entity that serves as an intermediary for, and provides certain services to, appraisers and lenders. The rule also implements the statutory requirement that States report to the Appraisal Subcommittee (ASC) of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC) the information required by the ASC to administer a new national registry of AMCs (AMC National Registry or Registry). This is a new information collection that is being established by the adoption of the final rule. OMB has reviewed the ICR that was associated with the proposed rule that published April 9, 2014, and which also served as the required 60-day Notice. OMB has assigned this information collection OMB Control Number 2590-0013. The OMB Notice of Action is included as a Supplementary Document.
