General Description of Collection:
Section 42 of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act mandates that an insured
depository institution closing a branch
notify its primary federal regulator not
later than 90 days prior to the closing.
The statute also provides that a notice
be posted on the premises of the branch
for the 30-day period immediately prior
to the closing and that the customers be
notified in a mailing at least 90 days
prior to the closing. Each insured
depository institution that has one or
more branches is required to adopt a
written policy for branch closings.
Burden Estimate Methodology and
Assumptions:
There are no changes in the
methodology or substance of this
information collection. FDIC believes
that the existing estimate of the time
required to develop a written branch
closure policy and to provide the

required branch closure notices is
accurate. The number of branch closure
notifications is closely related to the
number of branches closed, while the
number of closure policy adoptions
equals the number newly chartered
branch banking institutions and the
number of existing banking institutions
that transition from having no branches
to having at least one branch. To derive
an estimate of average annual branch
closure notifications, FDIC Risk
Management Supervision (RMS) staff
counted the number of full-service
standalone and in-store branches that
closed between 2015 and 2017. In
addition, FDIC staff count the number of
newly chartered branch banking
institutions and the number of
institutions that transitioned from
having no branches to having at least
one branch. To derive an estimate of
average annual branch closure

notifications, FDIC Risk Management
Supervision (RMS) staff counted the
number of full-service standalone and
in-store branches that closed between
2015 and 2017. In addition, FDIC staff
counted the number of newly chartered
branch banking institutions and the
number of institutions that transitioned
from having no branches to having at
least one branch. FDIC records reflect
that there were 683 branch closures, on
average, each year between 2015 and
2017. FDIC estimates that an average of
23 institutions each year will transition
from having no branches to having at
least one branch.

General Description of Collection:
This information collection consists
of two parts: (1) A certification that
insured depository institutions provide
the FDIC when all deposit liabilities
from one insured depository institution
are assumed from another insured
depository institution, with the latter
institution responsible for providing the
certification, and (2) a notification that
an insured depository institution
provides to its depositors when it seeks
to voluntarily terminate its insured
status. The certification is necessary to
implement the provisions of section 8(q)
of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, 12
U.S.C. 1818(q), regarding termination of
the insured status of the transferring
institution and termination of the
separate deposit insurance coverage

provided on deposit accounts assumed
by the assuming institution. The
depositor notification is required by
section 8(a) (6) of the Federal Deposit
Insurance Act, 12 U.S.C. 1818(a) (6).
This provision ensures that the
institution’s depositors receive
appropriate information regarding the
institution’s intent to terminate its
insured status and that, prior to the
termination of the institution’s insured
status, depositors receive appropriate
information concerning federal deposit
insurance coverage of their accounts
once the institution’s insured status is
terminated.
There is no change in the
methodology or substance of this
information collection. The number of
certifications submitted under this

information collection is closely related
to the number of insured depository
institutions that are acquired by another
depository institution through mergers
or as a result of the closing of the
institution by its chartering authority.
The number of depositor notifications is
driven by the number of institutions
that elect to voluntarily terminate its
insured status without having its
deposits assumed by another insured
depository institution. The change in
burden is due to economic fluctuation
reflected in a lower number of
certifications following mergers or
closures and a reduction in the number
of notifications due to voluntary
terminations of insured status.

General Description of Collection:
Upon the failure of an FDIC-insured
depository institution, the FDIC is
required to pay insured deposits as soon
as possible.1 To do so, the FDIC must be
able to quickly determine the total
insured amount for each depositor. To
make this determination, the FDIC must
ascertain the balances of all deposit
accounts owned by the same depositor
in the same ownership capacity at a
failed institution as of the day of failure.
The FDIC issued a regulation (12 CFR
360.9) to modernize the process of
determining the insurance status of each
depositor in the event of failure of a
covered institution. The regulation
requires covered institutions to adopt
mechanisms that would, in the event of
the institution’s failure (1) provide the
FDIC with standard deposit account and
other customer information, and (2)
allow the placement and release of
holds on liability accounts, including
deposits. The regulation applies only to
covered institutions and imposes the

deposits either by payment in cash or by making
available to each depositor a transferred deposit in
a another insured depository institution. 12 U.S.C

following recordkeeping and reporting
requirements:
Recordkeeping
360.9(c)(1) and (2)—Posting and
Removing Provisional Holds. Covered
institutions must have an automatic
process for placing a provisional hold
on deposit accounts within timeframes
specified in FDIC regulations.
360.9(d)(1) and (2)—Providing
Standard Data Format for Deposit
Account and Customer Information.
Covered institutions must produce
information in the specified standard
data format.
Reporting
360.9(c)(3)—Covered institutions
must notify the FDIC of the person(s)
responsible for producing required
standard data downloads and for
administering provisional holds.
360.9(c)(9)—A covered institution
may request an exemption from the
provisional hold requirements for
certain account systems servicing a
relatively small number of accounts
where manual application of
provisional holds is feasible.

360.9(d)(3)—Upon request by the
FDIC, a covered institution must submit
the data required by 360.9(d)(1) .
360.9(e)(7)—A covered institution
may request an extension of the
deadline to comply with provisional
hold and standard data format
requirements.
360.9(f)—A covered institution may
request an exemption from the
provisional hold and standard data
format requirements due to high
concentration of deposits incidental to
credit card operations.
360.9(h)—A covered institution’s
compliance with the recordkeeping and
reporting requirements set forth in the
rule will be tested by the FDIC.
Burden Estimate Methodology and
Assumptions:
The FDIC is revising its burden
estimate because the number of covered
institutions has decreased due to
economic fluctuations and most covered
institutions have already implemented
the requirements of the regulation and
will only face reduced ongoing
compliance burdens. Based on FDIC
Call Report data,2 the regulation
currently applies to 145 institutions.

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 134 / Thursday, July 12, 2018 / Notices
The FDIC has determined that in the
past, between 1 and 3 new institutions
per quarter have become covered under
the regulation. FDIC estimates that on

average, 2 new institutions per quarter
(8 new institutions per year) will
become covered and be subject to initial
implementation burden. The following

table reflects the FDCI’s estimate of the
breakdown of covered institutions
facing implementation and ongoing
burden during the next three years:

All covered institutions will be
required to comply with the
requirements of 360.9(h). FDIC
estimates that half of the covered
institutions will be tested for
compliance each year. As a result, it is
estimated that an average of 81 covered
institutions will be affected by this
reporting burden annually. No
institutions have requested an extension
under section 360.9(e)(7), or exemptions
under sections 360.9(c)(9) or 360.9(f).
The ‘‘Summary of Annual Burden’’ table
above lists a respondent count of 1 for
these requests as placeholders to
preserve the burden estimates for these
activities.
Request for Comment: Comments are
invited on: (a) Whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the FDIC’s functions,
including whether the information has
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
estimates of the burden of the
information collection, including the
validity of the methodology and
assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
All comments will become a matter of
public record.
