Abstract: U.S. commercial banks, savings associations, and bank holding companies (BHCs) that meet certain criteria file quarterly the Country Exposure Report (FFIEC 009) with the Board, the FDIC, and the OCC (the agencies) and provide information on international claims of U.S. banks, savings associations, holding companies, and savings and loan holding companies (SLHCs) that is used for supervisory and analytical purposes. The information is used to monitor country exposure of banks to determine the degree of country risk and transfer risk in their portfolios and the possible impact on U.S. banks of adverse developments in particular countries. The Country Exposure Information Report (FFIEC 009a) is a supplement to the FFIEC 009 and provides publicly available information on material foreign country exposures (all exposures to a country in excess of 1 percent of total assets or 20 percent of capital, whichever is less) of U.S. banks, savings associations and holding companies that file the FFIEC 009 report. As part of the Country Exposure Information Report, reporting institutions must also furnish a list of countries in which they have lending exposures between 0.75 percent and 1 percent of total assets or between 15 and 20 percent of total capital, whichever is less.
