Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The average number of responses has declined over the past three years as the private sector has become more selective with the credit risk of borrowers and the volume of revenue generated by those customers. In addition, private lenders have slowly moved away from trade finance as capital has become expensive and lenders are required to increase capital reserves due to Basel III requirements. Consequently, the burden information reported has been adjusted to reflect the decrease in responses.
