Agency Information Collection Activities; Comment Request; Renewal Without Change of Bank Secrecy Act Currency Transaction Reporting Requirements Regulations

FinCEN, a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury (``Treasury''), invites all interested parties to comment on its proposed renewal without change of the Bank Secrecy Act (``BSA'') regulations requiring Currency Transaction Reporting (``CTR'') for certain financial institutions, i.e., depository institutions, money services businesses, brokers or dealers in securities, mutual funds, futures commission merchants, and introducing brokers in commodities. FinCEN intends to submit this requirement for approval by the Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') for a three-year extension of Control Number 1506-0004. This request for comments is made pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act (``PRA'') of 1995.
