Abstract: The FDIC is requesting OMB approval for renewal of one of three collections of information related to a amendment to the FDIC’s assessment regulations that required insured depository institutions to prepay, on December 30, 2009, their estimated quarterly risk-based assessments for the fourth quarter of 2009, and for all of 2010, 2011, and 2012. The FDIC began to offset prepaid assessments on March 30, 2010, representing payment for the fourth quarter of 2009. Any prepaid assessment not exhausted by June 13, 2013, would be returned to the institution. The FDIC determined which of its insured depository institutions should be exempt from prepaying its assessments for the next three years. In addition, an insured depository institution could apply to the FDIC for an exemption from its assessment prepayment Also, an institution that is exempted by the FDIC may request that the exemption be withdrawn. In addition, when an insured depository institution enters into an agreement to transfer any portion of its prepaid assessment to another insured depository institution, it is required to notify the FDIC of that transaction by submitting a written agreement signed by the legal representatives of both institutions, including documentation that each representative has the legal authority to bind the institution.
