SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.),
Federal agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection
of information that they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of
information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to
include agency requests or requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a third party.
The OCC asks the OMB to extend its approval of the collection in this
notice.
Title: Consumer Protections for Depository Institution Sales of
Insurance.
OMB Control No.: 1557-0220.
Type of Review: Regular.
Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
Description: This information collection is required under section
305 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB Act), 12 U.S.C. 1831x. Section
305 of the GLB Act requires the OCC, the Board of Governors of the
Federal Reserve System, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
(collectively, the Agencies) to prescribe joint consumer protection
regulations that apply to retail sales practices, solicitations,
advertising, and offers of any insurance product by a depository
institution or by other persons performing these activities at an
office of the institution or on behalf of the institution (other
covered persons). Section 305 also requires those performing such
activities to disclose certain information to consumers (e.g., that
insurance products and annuities are not FDIC-insured).
This information collection requires national banks, Federal
savings associations, and other covered persons involved in insurance
sales, as defined in 12 CFR 14.20(f), to make two separate disclosures
to consumers. Under 12 CFR 14.40, a national bank, Federal savings
association, or other covered person must prepare and provide orally
and in writing: (1) certain insurance disclosures to consumers before
the completion of the initial sale of an insurance product or annuity
to a consumer and (2) certain credit disclosures at the time of
application for the extension of credit (if insurance products or
annuities are sold, solicited, advertised, or offered in connection
with an extension of credit). The insurance disclosures are required in
advertisements and promotional material for insurance products or
annuities unless the advertisements and promotional materials are of a
general nature describing or listing the services or products offered
by the national bank or Federal savings association.
Consumers use the disclosures to understand the risks associated
with insurance products and annuities and to understand that they are
not required to purchase, and may refrain from purchasing, certain
insurance products or annuities in order to qualify for an extension of
credit.
Estimated Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Estimated Number of Respondents: 315.
Total Estimated Burden Hours: 1,575.
Comments: On May 9, 2025, the OCC published a 60-day notice for
this information collection (90 FR 19788). No comments were received.
Comments continue to be 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 through 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.

Assistant Director, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.
