The FR 2420 is a transaction-based
report that collects daily liability data on federal funds
purchased, selected borrowings from non-exempt entities, Eurodollar
transactions, and time deposits and certificates of deposits (CDs)
from (1) domestically chartered commercial banks and savings
associations that have $18 billion or more in total assets as well
as those that have total assets above $5 billion but less than $18
billion and meet the activity threshold, (2) U.S. branches and
agencies of foreign banks with total third-party assets of $2.5
billion or more, and (3) significant banking organizations that are
active participants in money markets. The FR 2420 also collects
daily data on Eurodollar transactions from International Banking
Facilities (IBFs) of the above-referenced institutions. The FR 2420
data are used in the publication of the Effective Federal Funds
Rate (EFFR) and Overnight Bank Funding Rate (OBFR) and in analysis
of current money market conditions.

The estimated total annual
burden for the FR 2420 is 100,700 hours, and would increase to
111,675 with the revisions. The Board estimates that the average
hours per response would increase by 0.2 hours for commercial
banks, savings associations, U.S. branches and agencies of foreign
banks, and significant banking organizations; and increase by 0.1
hours for IBFs.
