Short Statement: The program changes in this ICR are associated with a rulemaking to establish recordkeeping and reporting requirements for Qualified Financial Contracts (QFCs)held by insured depository institutions in troubled condition, as defined in the rule. QFCs are certain financial contracts that have been defined in the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and that receive special treatment by the FDIC in the event of the failure of an insured institution, allowing the FDIC to reduce losses to the deposit insurance fund and retain the value of the failed institution's portfolio, while minimizing the potential for market disruptions that could occur with the liquidation of a large QFC portfolio.
