In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995, the OCC, the Board, and the FDIC (the agencies) may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection unless it displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. The agencies, under the auspices of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC), have approved the publication of proposed revisions to the Regulatory Capital Reporting for Institutions Subject to the Advanced Capital Adequacy Framework (FFIEC 101) for public comment. The FFIEC 101 is completed only by banking organizations subject to the advanced approaches risk-based capital rule. Generally, this rule applies to banking organizations with $250 billion or more in total consolidated assets or $10 billion or more in on-balance sheet foreign exposures (advanced approaches banking organizations). The proposed revisions would remove two credit valuation adjustment (CVA) items from the exposure at default (EAD) column on FFIEC 101 Schedule B, Summary Risk-Weighted Asset Information for Banks Approved to Use Advanced Internal Ratings-Based and Advanced Measurement Approaches for Regulatory Capital Purposes (items 31.a and 31.b, column D). Advanced approaches banking organizations would discontinue reporting the EAD CVA data items on FFIEC 101 Schedule B effective with the June 30, 2017, reporting date. At the end of the comment period, the comments will be analyzed to determine the extent to which the FFIEC and the agencies should modify the proposed revisions. The agencies will then submit the proposed revisions to OMB for review and final approval.

Proposed Agency Information Collection Activities; Comment 
Request

AGENCY: Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), Treasury; 
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board); and Federal 
Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

ACTION: Joint notice and request for comment.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (PRA) of 1995, the OCC, the Board, and the FDIC (the agencies) may 
not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond 
to, an information collection unless it displays a currently valid 
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. The agencies, 
under the auspices of the Federal Financial Institutions Examination 
Council (FFIEC), have approved the publication of proposed revisions to 
the Regulatory Capital Reporting for Institutions Subject to the 
Advanced Capital Adequacy Framework (FFIEC 101) for public comment. The 
FFIEC 101 is completed only by banking organizations subject to the 
advanced approaches risk-based capital rule. Generally, this rule 
applies to banking organizations with $250 billion or more in total 
consolidated assets or $10 billion or more in on-balance sheet foreign 
exposures (advanced approaches banking organizations).
    The proposed revisions would remove two credit valuation adjustment 
(CVA) items from the exposure at default (EAD) column on FFIEC 101 
Schedule B, Summary Risk-Weighted Asset Information for Banks Approved 
to Use Advanced Internal Ratings-Based and Advanced Measurement 
Approaches for Regulatory Capital Purposes (items 31.a and 31.b, column 
D). Advanced approaches banking organizations would discontinue 
reporting the EAD CVA data items on FFIEC 101 Schedule B effective with 
the June 30, 2017, reporting date.
    At the end of the comment period, the comments will be analyzed to 
determine the extent to which the FFIEC and the agencies should modify 
the proposed revisions. The agencies will then submit the proposed 
revisions to OMB for review and final approval.

DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before May 1, 2017.

General Description of Reports

    Each advanced approaches banking organization is required to file 
quarterly regulatory capital data on the FFIEC 101. The FFIEC 101 
information collection is mandatory for advanced approaches banking 
organizations: 12 U.S.C. 161 (national banks), 12 U.S.C. 324 (state 
member banks), 12 U.S.C. 1844(c) (bank holding companies), 12 U.S.C. 
1467a(b) (savings and loan holding companies), 12 U.S.C. 1817 (insured 
state nonmember commercial and savings banks), 12 U.S.C. 1464 (savings 
associations), and 12 U.S.C. 1844(c), 3106, and 3108 (intermediate 
holding companies).
    The agencies use these data to assess and monitor the levels and 
components of each reporting entity's capital requirements and the 
adequacy of the entity's capital under the Advanced Capital Adequacy 
Framework; to evaluate the impact of the Advanced Capital Adequacy 
Framework on individual reporting entities and on an industry-wide 
basis and its competitive implications; and to supplement on-site 
examination processes. The reporting schedules also assist advanced 
approaches banking organizations in understanding expectations relating 
to the system development necessary for implementation and validation 
of the Advanced Capital Adequacy Framework. Submitted data that are 
released publicly will also provide other interested parties with 
information about advanced approaches banking organizations' regulatory 
capital.

Current Actions

    The agencies are inviting comment on a proposal to remove two items 
from FFIEC 101 Schedule B. No other revisions to the FFIEC 101 report 
are being proposed.
    The two items proposed for removal collect EAD information related 
to CVAs that already is captured in a separate item on FFIEC 101 
Schedule B. Specifically, the agencies are proposing to remove column D 
(EAD) for items 31.a, ``Credit valuation adjustments--simple 
approach,'' and 31.b, ``Credit value adjustments--advanced approach.'' 
These line items were added to the FFIEC 101 report in March of 2014, 
and were intended to provide data pertaining to the CVA requirements 
under the agencies' regulatory capital rules \1\ for over-the-counter 
(OTC) derivative activities.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ For national banks and federal savings associations, 12 CFR 
part 3 (OCC); for state member banks and holding companies, 12 CFR 
part 217 (Board); and for state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations, 12 CFR part 324 (FDIC).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Under these rules, CVA is the fair value adjustment to reflect 
counterparty credit risk in the valuation of an OTC derivative contract 
that has a positive fair value. The advanced approaches risk-based 
capital rules provide two approaches for calculating the CVA capital 
requirement: The simple and advanced CVA approaches. The conditions for 
each approach, as well as the methods for calculation, are described in 
section 132 of the

[[Page 12276]]

regulatory capital rules. Currently, EAD information pertaining to CVAs 
that is reported in FFIEC 101 Schedule B remains confidential, even 
after an institution completes its parallel run period.
    The agencies have determined that the EAD information reported in 
column D of items 31.a and 31.b on FFIEC 101 Schedule B is already 
captured in column D of item 10 (OTC derivatives--no cross-product 
netting--EAD adjustment method) on FFIEC 101 Schedule B. Continuing to 
collect the same EAD information in both places is not only redundant, 
but also may be misinterpreted by the users of FFIEC 101 data as 
additional default risk held by the reporting entity. For these 
reasons, the agencies propose removing column D for items 31.a and 31.b 
on FFIEC 101 Schedule B.
    The agencies would continue to collect the amount of risk-weighted 
assets for CVAs in column G of items 31.a and 31.b on FFIEC 101 
Schedule B.
