Abstract: When acting upon an initial Federal Reserve Membership Application (FR 2083/A/B/C) filed by a state-chartered bank, the Federal Reserve is required under section 9 of the Federal Reserve Act (FRA) to consider the financial condition of the applying bank, the general character of its management, and whether the corporate powers to be exercised are consistent with the FRA. The Federal Reserve uses the information collected through the application form, along with other Federal Reserve System-generated data, to determine whether the applicant bank meets the standards for approval. The information requested in the FR 2083/A/B/C application for membership is necessary for the Federal Reserve to be able to fulfill its responsibilities with respect to evaluating a state-chartered bank for membership. The Federal Reserve Bank Stock Applications forms (FR 2030, FR 2030a, FR 2056, FR 2086, FR 2086a, and FR 2087) are used to fulfill the Board’s responsibilities under the FRA, Home Owners’ Loan Act, and Regulation I. These application forms must be used by a new or existing member bank (including a national bank or a CSA) to request the issuance, adjustments (related to a merger) in, or cancellation of Federal Reserve Bank stock. The application forms must contain certain certifications by the applicant as well as certain other financial and shareholder data that are needed by a Reserve Bank to process the request.

Short Statement: The estimated total annual burden for the Federal Reserve Membership Application and Federal Reserve Bank Stock Applications is 99 hours, and would increase to 112 hours with the revisions. The FR 2083/A/B/C estimated average hours per response increased 1 hour with the revisions. As part of this clearance, the Board cleared the FR 2083, FR 2083A, FR 2083B, and FR 2083C (FR 2083/A/B/C) under the FR 2030, FR 2030a, FR 2056, FR 2086, FR 2086a, and FR 2087 OMB control number (7100-0042), and then discontinued the FR 2083/A/B/C’s separate OMB control number (7100-0046). This change was aimed at simplifying the tracking and clearance process for the two related sets of forms. This change did not modify the reporting requirements of the forms in any way.
