Form F-4 is used by foreign private
issuers to register securities in business combinations,
reorganizations and exchange offers pursuant to the federal
securities laws.
The proposed amendments would
revise the statistical disclosures for banking registrants by
updating and codifying certain Guide 3 disclosures and eliminate
other Guide 3 disclosures that overlap with Commission rules, U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or International
Financial Reporting Standards. In addition, the proposed rules
would relocate the codified disclosures to a new subpart of
Regulation S-K and rescind Guide 3. We anticipate that the proposed
amendments would result in a small increase in the required
disclosure and the related burdens and costs for these registrants
to prepare and review the collections of information. For purposes
of the Paperwork Reduction Act, we estimate that the proposed
amendments would result in a net increase of 1 burden hours and a
net increase in the cost burden of $1,200 for the services of
outside professionals on Form F-4.
