General Description of Collection: Insured state nonmember banks
are required to notify the FDIC, under section 7 of the Bank Service

estimated number of respondents, as well as the time per response and
the frequency of response have remained the same.

General Description of Collection: Section 1828(o) of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act requires each federal banking agency to adopt
uniform regulations prescribing real estate lending standards. Part 365
of the FDIC
[[Page 17223]]
Rules and Regulations, which implements section 1828(o), requires
institutions to have real estate lending policies that include (a)
limits and standards consistent with safe and sound banking practices;
(b) prudent underwriting standards, including loan-to-value ratio (LTV)
limits that are clear and measurable; (c) loan administration policies;
(d) documentation, approval and reporting requirements; and (e) a
requirement for annual review and approval by the board of directors.
The rule also establishes supervisory LTV limits and other underwriting
considerations in the form of guidelines. Since banks generally have
written policies on real estate lending, the additional burden imposed
by this regulation is limited to modifications to existing policies
necessary to bring those policies into compliance with the regulation
and the development of a system to report loans in excess of the
guidelines to the board of directors. There is no change in the
substance or methodology of this information collection. The change in
burden is due to a decrease in the number of respondents.
3. Title: Foreign Banking and Investment by Insured State Nonmember
Banks.
OMB Number: 3064-0125.
Forms: None.
Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings
associations.

General Description of Collection: The Federal Deposit Insurance
(FDI) Act requires state nonmember banks to obtain FDIC consent to
establish or operate a foreign branch, or to acquire and hold, directly
or indirectly, stock or other evidence of ownership in any foreign bank
or other entity. The FDI Act also authorizes the FDIC to impose
conditions for such consent and to issue regulations related thereto.
This collection is a direct consequence of those statutory
requirements. There is no change in the substance or methodology of
this information collection. The change in burden is due to a decline
in the number of FDIC-supervised institutions that operate foreign
branches and one fewer estimated respondent to IC 6.
4. Title: Treatment by the FDIC as Conservator or Receiver of
Financial Assets Transferred by an Insured Depository Institution in
Connection With a Securitization or Participation after September 30,
2010.
OMB Number: 3064-0177.

General Description of Collection: Section 360.6 of the FDIC's
regulations sets forth certain conditions that must be satisfied for a
securitization transaction sponsored by an insured depository
institution to be eligible for special treatment in the event that the
FDIC is appointed receiver for the sponsor. Among other conditions, the
securitization documents must require compliance with certain
disclosure requirements (including the requirements of Regulation AB of
the Securities and Exchange Commission). Conditions of eligibility for
special treatment for participations in financial assets under Sec.
360.6 are also set forth. Based upon a closer review of the Rule, the
FDIC has re-categorized the information collection requirements in 12
CFR 360.6 into five distinct information collections (ICs) covering:
(1) periodic disclosures of credit performance or changes to initial
compensation arrangements under 12 CFR 360.6(b)(2)(i)(C) and (D); (2)
disclosures of initial compensation arrangements and securitization
structure under 12 CFR 360.6(b)(2)(i)(B) and (D); (3) sponsors'
disclosures of loan-level information and third-party due diligence
reports for RMBSs under 12 CFR 360.6(b)(2)(ii)(A) and (B); (4)
servicers' disclosures of servicer or affiliate ownership interests for
securitizations in which the assets include residential mortgage loans
under 12 CFR 360.6(b)(2)(ii)(C); and (5) a recordkeeping requirement
that the closing documents of a securitization be maintained in a
readily accessible form under 12 CFR 360.6(c)(7). The burden associated
with these five categories are enumerated in the estimated burden table
which now identifies the regulatory authorities for each IC.
While there is no change in the substance of the information
collection, the ICR is being revised to reflect the re-categorization
of the PRA requirements in 12 CFR 360.6 into five distinct ICs. The
additional IC was added to this ICR to recognize the periodic credit
performance disclosure requirement.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions,
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection,
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of
information on respondents, including through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All
comments will become a matter of public record.
