The FFIEC 101 must be filed quarterly by certain large or internationally active state member banks, bank holding companies (BHCs), savings and loan holding companies (SLHCs), intermediate holding companies (IHCs), and also for those institutions that adopt the framework on a voluntary basis.
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act) and the International Lending Supervision Act of 1983 (ILSA) require the agencies to have risk-based capital requirements and to ensure that banks maintain adequate capital. The Board uses these data to assess and monitor the levels and components of each reporting entityâs risk-based capital requirements and the adequacy of the entityâs capital under the framework. These data also allow the Board to evaluate the quantitative impact and competitive implications of the framework on individual respondents and on the financial industry. The reporting schedules also assist banks in understanding expectations surrounding the system development necessary for implementation and validation of the framework. The submitted data that is released publicly also provide other interested parties with information about banksâ risk-based capital. Finally, the submitted data supplement on-site examination processes.
The agencies propose under the emergency clearance provisions of OMBâs regulations to revise the FFIEC 101 for the June 30, 2018, report date. The agencies have determined that (1) the collection of information within the scope of this request is needed prior to the expiration of time periods established under 5 CFR 1320.10, (2) this collection of information is essential to the mission of the agencies, and (3) the agencies cannot reasonably comply with the normal clearance procedures because an unanticipated event has occurred and the use of normal clearance procedures is reasonably likely to prevent or disrupt the collection of information.
These revisions arise from Congressional enactment of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act (EGRRCPA). Section 214 of EGRRCPA requires the agencies to revise the definition of high volatility commercial real estate (HVCRE) exposures that institutions use to calculate risk-weighted assests and, hence, risk-based capital ratios. This provision became effective automatically when the law was signed on May 24, 2018.
The agencies must receive data from the quarterly FFIEC 101 report to assess and monitor the levels and components of each reporting entityâs risk-based capital requirements and the adequacy of the entityâs capital under the framework. The next reports are due at the end of August 2018, based on information available as of June 30, 2018. In order for the agencies to implement section 214 as required by law, the agencies cannot comply with the normal clearance process and still receive the June 30, 2018, financial data in a timely manner.
