Partial Data Set

General Description of Collection: The
Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System promulgated Regulation
C, 12 CFR part 203, to implement the
Home Mortgage Disclosure Act (HMDA),
12 U.S.C. 2801–2810. Regulation C
requires depository institutions that
meet its asset-size threshold to maintain
data about home loan applications (the
type of loan requested, the purpose of
the loan, whether the loan was
approved, and the type of purchaser if
the loan was later sold), to update the
information quarterly, and to report the
information annually. The Home
Mortgage Disclosure Act and Regulation
C now come under the authority of the
Consumer Financial Protection Bureau
(CFPB).
Pursuant to Regulation C, insured
state-nonmember banks supervised by
the FDIC with assets over a certain
dollar threshold must collect, record,
and report data about home loan
applications.3 For 2017 transactions,

1,865 FDIC-supervised institutions
reported under HMDA; 1,217 of these
institutions were small entities.4 5 For
transactions beginning in 2018, the set
of data fields to be reported under
HMDA was expanded. Institutions that
meet certain criteria are partially
exempt from reporting certain data
fields.6 To estimate the number of Full
and Partial filers for 2018, subject matter
experts (SMEs) in the Division of
Consumer Protection (DCP) examined
2016 and 2017 data collected under
HMDA, as well as preliminary data for
2018. Results from this analysis indicate
that for 2018 data, there were roughly
650 and 1,200 respondents to the Full
and Partial reporting requirements of
this information collection, respectively.
The frequency of responses was
estimated by taking the total number of
Full and Partial disclosure filings and
dividing that number by the number of
respondents.7

The frequency of response is ‘on
occasion’, which remains unchanged
from the 2016 ICR.8 Due to an increase
in the number of required items, the
estimated time per response for the Full
Data loan disclosure form will increase
from 5 minutes to 10 minutes. The
estimated time per response for the
Partial Data loan disclosure form will
remain unchanged at 5 minutes. For
both the Full and Partial loan
disclosure, the estimated burden is
divided equally among reporting and
recordkeeping.
2. Title: External Audits.
OMB Control Number: 3064–0113.
Form Number: None.
Affected Public: All insured financial
institutions with total assets of $500
million or more and other insured
financial institutions with total assets of
less than $500 million that voluntarily
choose to comply.

4 The SBA defines a small banking organization
as having $550 million or less in assets, where ‘‘a
financial institution’s assets are determined by
averaging the assets reported on its four quarterly
financial statements for the preceding year.’’ See 13

2014). ‘‘SBA counts the receipts, employees, or
other measure of size of the concern whose size is
at issue and all of its domestic and foreign
affiliates.’’ See 13 CFR 121.103. Following these
regulations, the FDIC uses a covered entity’s
affiliated and acquired assets, averaged over the
preceding four quarters, to determine whether the
covered entity is ‘‘small’’ for the purposes of RFA.

General Description of Collection: The
FDIC’s policy statement on
Qualifications for Failed Bank
Acquisitions provides guidance to
private capital investors interested in
acquiring or investing in failed insured
depository institutions regarding the
terms and conditions for such
investments or acquisitions. The
information collected pursuant to the
policy statement allows the FDIC to
evaluate, among other things, whether
such investors (and their related
interests) could negatively impact the
Deposit Insurance Fund, increase
resolution costs, or operate in a manner
that conflict with statutory safety and

soundness principles and compliance
requirements.
There were eight (8) bank failures in
2015, five (5) failures in 2016, eight (8)
failures in 2017, and zero bank failures
in 2018 and one in the first eight
months of 2019. This is an average of
fewer than 5 bank failures per year.
Based on this recent data, the declining
trend in failures, and the improvement
in bank financial conditions, the FDIC
believes that it is appropriate to reduce
the expected number of respondents for
Sections D and I from 10 per year to 3
while keeping the expected number of
respondents at 3 per year for Section E.
The estimated total number of hours
per respondent, per year will remain

unchanged at 48 hours. The 48 hours is
comprised of 12 monthly reports of two
hours each for Section D, four quarterly
reports of two hours each for Section E,
and four quarterly reports of four hours
each for Section I. Thus the total
estimated annual burden for the ICR is
144 hours as reflected in the table above
This represents a reduction of 280 hours
from the 2016 estimate of 424 hours.

General Description of Collection: The
information collection includes
reporting and recordkeeping
requirements related to sound risk
management principles applicable to
insured depository institutions. To
enable an institution and its supervisor
to evaluate the liquidity risk exposure of
an institution’s individual business
lines and for the institution as a whole,
the Interagency Policy Statement on
Funding and Liquidity Risk
Management (Interagency Statement)
summarizes principles of sound

liquidity risk management and
advocates the establishment of policies
and procedures that consider liquidity
costs, benefits, and risks in strategic
planning. In addition, the Interagency
Statement encourages the use of
liquidity risk reports that provide
detailed and aggregate information on
items such as cash flow gaps, cash flow
projections, assumptions used in cash
flow projections, asset and funding
concentrations, funding availability, and
early warning or risk indicators. This is
intended to enable management to

General Description of Collection: The
Interagency Guidance on Leveraged
Lending (Guidance) outlines for agencysupervised institutions high level
principles related to safe-and sound
leveraged lending activities, including
underwriting considerations, assessing
and documenting enterprise value, risk
management expectations for credits
awaiting distribution, stress testing
expectations, pipeline portfolio
management, and risk management
expectations for exposures held by the
institution.
This Guidance provides information
to all financial institutions supervised
by the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency, the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System and the FDIC
(the Agencies) that engage in leveraged
lending activities. The number of
community banks with substantial
involvement in leveraged lending is
small; therefore, the Agencies generally
expect community banks to be largely
unaffected by this information
collection. There is no change in the
method or substance of the collection.
The overall reduction in burden hours
is the result of economic fluctuation. In
particular, the number of respondents
has decreased while the hours per
response and frequency of responses
have remained the same.
