successful.
Unless those earth station operators
provide the necessary information, they
will risk losing their rights to receive
relocation assistance prior to the

as well as any rights to operate in the
lower C-band at their current locations
free of harmful interference that may
occur as these licensees deploy their
networks.

the FDIC under procedures set forth in
part 362 of the FDIC’s Rules and

or investment that is not permissible for
a national bank, or indirectly through a
subsidiary in an activity or investment
that is not permissible for a subsidiary
of a national bank, unless such bank
meets its minimum capital requirements
and the FDIC determines that the
activity or investment does not pose a
significant risk to the Deposit Insurance
Fund (DIF). The FDIC can make such a
determination for exception by
regulation or by order. Section 28(a), 12
U.S.C. 1831e, similarly limits the
investments and activities of state
savings associations and their service
corporations to those permitted by
federal savings associations and their
service corporations, absent FDIC
approval. Part 362 details the activities
that state banks or their subsidiaries
may engage in, under certain criteria
and conditions and identifies the

information that state banks must

the FDIC’s approval or non-objection.
Part 362 also applies to the activities
and investments of state savings
associations and their subsidiaries.
There is no change in the method or
substance of the collection. The increase
in burden hours is the result of
economic fluctuation. In particular, the

General Description of Collection: The
elements of this collection are required
under sections 503 and 504 of the

notice requirements and restrictions on

increased, the number of respondents to
the other components decreased and the

FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM
[Docket No. OP–1760]

Federal Reserve Bank Services; Notice
of Private Sector Adjustment Factor for
2022 and the 2022 Fee Schedules for
Federal Reserve Priced Services and
Electronic Access
The Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System (Board) has
approved the private sector adjustment
factor (PSAF) for 2022 of $19.4 million
and the 2022 fee schedules for Federal
Reserve priced services and electronic
access. These actions were taken in
accordance with the Monetary Control
Act of 1980, which requires that, over
the long run, fees for Federal Reserve
priced services be established based on
all direct and indirect costs, including
the PSAF.
DATES: The new fee schedules become
effective January 3, 2022.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: For
questions regarding the fee schedules:
Susan Foley, Senior Associate Director,
(202) 452–3596; Kristopher Natoli,
Manager, (202) 452–3227; Division of
Reserve Bank Operations and Payment
Systems. For questions regarding the
PSAF: Casey Clark, Assistant Director,
(202) 912–7978; Grace Milbank, Lead
Financial Institution Policy Analyst,
(202) 263–4828, Division of Reserve
Bank Operations and Payment Systems.
Copies of the 2022 fee schedules for the
Check Service are available from the
Board, the Federal Reserve Banks, or the
Federal Reserve Financial Services
website at www.FRBservices.org.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Private Sector Adjustment Factor,
Priced Services Cost Recovery, and
Overview of 2022 Price Changes
A. Overview—Each year, as required
by the Monetary Control Act of 1980,

PO 00000

Frm 00034

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

the Reserve Banks set fees for priced
services provided to financial
institutions.1 These fees are set to
recover, over the long run, all direct and
indirect costs and imputed costs,
including financing costs, taxes, and
certain other expenses, as well as the
return on equity (profit) that would have
been earned if a private-sector business
provided the services. The imputed
costs and imputed profit are collectively
referred to as the private-sector
adjustment factor (PSAF).2
B. Long-run cost recovery—Although
the Monetary Control Act does not
define ‘‘over the long run,’’ the Board
has generally measured long-run cost
recovery for mature services to be over
a 10-year rolling timeframe.3 In any
given year, one or more priced services
may under-recover for a variety of
reasons, including due to significant
investments to enhance a service.
Through 2020, the Reserve Banks’
long-run cost recovery was 103.5
percent of their total expenses
(including imputed costs) and targeted
after-tax profits or return on equity
1 On August 5, 2019, the Board announced that
the Reserve Banks will develop the FedNowSM
Service, an interbank real-time gross settlement
(RTGS) service with integrated clearing
functionality, to support the provision of end-toend faster payment services. The Board anticipates
the FedNow Service will be available in 2023.
Following the introduction of the FedNow Service,
the Board will regularly disclose the service’s cost
recovery and will monitor progress toward
matching revenues and costs.
2 The business lines subject to the MCA are the
Fedwire® Funds Service, National Settlement
Service, Fedwire Securities Service, FedACH®
Services, and Check Services.
3 The Board views a 10-year cost recovery
expectation as appropriate for assessing mature
services, which are those that have achieved a
critical mass of customer participation and
generally have stable and predictable volumes,
costs, and revenues.
