SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: CCC Export Credit Guarantee
(GSM–102) Program.
OMB Number: 0551–0004.
Expiration Date of Approval:
November 30, 2017.
Type of Request: Revision of a
currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: The primary objective of the
GSM–102 program is to expand U.S.
agricultural exports by making available
export credit guarantees to encourage
U.S. private sector financing of foreign
purchases of U.S. agricultural
commodities on credit terms. The CCC
currently has programs operating in at
least 144 countries and regions with 167
exporters eligible to participate. Under 7
CFR part 1493, exporters, foreign banks,
and U.S. banks are required to submit
the following: (1) Information about the
exporter, foreign banks, and U.S. banks
for program participation; (2)
applications for payment guarantees; (3)
notices of assignment; (4) repurchase
agreements; (5) information regarding
the actual export of the commodity
(evidence of export report); (6) notice of
default and claims for loss; and (7)
appeals. In addition, each exporter and
exporter’s assignee (U.S. financial
institution) must maintain records on all
information submitted to CCC and in
connection with sales made under the
GSM–102 program. The information
collected is used by CCC to manage,
plan, evaluate, and account for
government resources. The reports and
records are required to ensure the
proper and judicious use of public
funds.
Estimate of Burden: The public
reporting burden for these collections is
estimated to average 0.38 hours per
response.
