SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OCC is requesting comment on the 
following revision to an approved information collection:
    Title: Company-Run Annual Stress Test Reporting Template and 
Documentation for Covered Institutions with Total Consolidated Assets 
of $250 Billion or More under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and 
Consumer Protection Act.
    OMB Control No.: 1557-0319.
    Abstract: Section 165(i)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform 
and Consumer Protection Act \1\ (Dodd-Frank Act) requires certain 
financial companies, including national banks and federal savings 
associations, to conduct annual stress tests \2\ and requires the 
primary financial regulatory agency \3\ of those financial companies to 
issue regulations implementing the stress test requirements.\4\ Under 
section 165(i)(2), a covered institution is required to submit to the 
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) and to its 
primary financial regulatory agency a report at such time, in such 
form, and containing such information as the primary financial 
regulatory agency may require.\5\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Public Law 111-203, 124 Stat. 1376, July 2010.
    \2\ 12 U.S.C. 5365(i)(2)(A).
    \3\ 12 U.S.C. 5301(12).

    \5\ 12 U.S.C. 5365(i)(2)(B).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    On October 9, 2012, the OCC published in the Federal Register a 
final rule implementing the section 165(i)(2) annual stress test 
requirement.\6\ This rule describes the reports and information 
collections required to meet the reporting requirements under section 
165(i)(2). These information collections will be treated as 
confidential (to the extent permitted by law.\7\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \6\ 77 FR 61238 (October 9, 2012) (codified at 12 CFR part 46).
    \7\ 5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    In 2012, the OCC first implemented the reporting templates 
referenced in the final rule.\8\ The OCC uses the data collected to 
assess the reasonableness of the stress test results of covered 
institutions and to provide forward-looking information to the OCC 
regarding a covered institution's capital adequacy. The OCC also may 
use the results of the stress tests to determine whether additional 
analytical techniques and exercises could be appropriate to identify, 
measure, and monitor risks at the covered institution. The stress test 
results are expected to support ongoing improvement in a covered 
institution's stress testing practices with respect to its internal 
assessments of capital adequacy and overall capital planning.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \8\ See, 77 FR 49485 (August 16, 2012) and 77 FR 66663 (November 
6, 2012).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The OCC recognizes that many covered institutions with total 
consolidated assets of $250 billion or more are required to submit 
reports using Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review (CCAR) 
reporting form FR Y-14A.\9\ The OCC also recognizes the Board has made 
modifications to the FR Y-14A and, to the extent practical, the OCC 
will keep its reporting requirements consistent with the Board's FR Y-
14A in order to minimize burden on covered institutions.\10\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \9\ <a href="http://www.federalreserve.gov/reportforms">http://www.federalreserve.gov/reportforms</a>.
    \10\ 87 FR 52560 (August 26, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The OCC's proposed changes include only limited updates to reflect 
the changes made by the Board, and the proposed OCC reporting forms 
will substantially resemble the forms used by the OCC last year. Some 
of the changes made by the Board are inapplicable to OCC-regulated 
institutions, such as certain changes to the Board's capital action 
assumptions. The OCC's proposed changes include the minimal adjustments 
necessary to align line items with placement on the 2022 FR Y-14A. The 
OCC is also proposing changes to the description of covered 
institutions required to complete the trading and counterparty credit 
risk (CCR) sub-schedules under the Global Market Shock (GMS) scenario 
to more closely align with the Board's description. If the Board 
proposes

[[Page 74472]]

additional changes to the FR Y-14A reporting forms after the 
publication of this notice, the OCC expects to make corresponding 
changes to the OCC reporting forms to minimize inconsistencies and 
reduce burden. The OCC's proposed new reporting forms and instructions 
are available on the OCC's website at <a href="https://www.occ.treas.gov/publications-and-resources/forms/dodd-frank-act-stress-test/index-dodd-frank-act-stress-test.html">https://www.occ.treas.gov/publications-and-resources/forms/dodd-frank-act-stress-test/index-dodd-frank-act-stress-test.html</a>.
    Type of Review: Revision. Affected Public: Businesses or other for-
profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 4 annually and 4 biennially.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden: 3,558 hours.
    The OCC believes that the systems covered institutions use to 
prepare the FR Y-14 reporting templates to submit to the Board will 
also be used to prepare the reporting templates described in this 
notice. Comments submitted in response to this notice will be 
summarized and included in the request for OMB approval. All comments 
will become a matter of public record. Comments are invited on:
    (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the 
information has practical utility;
    (b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the burden of the 
collection of information;
    (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (d) Ways to minimize the burden of the collection on respondents, 
including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology; and
    (e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information.
