This Information Collection Request (ICR) is being filed in connection with the renewal of an emergency clearance granted for an interim final rule required by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act of 2015 (TRIPRA). Title III of TRIPRA, the âBusiness Risk Mitigation and Price Stabilization Act of 2015,â amended the statutory provisions added by the Dodd-Frank Act relating to margin requirements for non-cleared swaps and non-cleared security-based swaps. Section 302 of TRIPRA amends sections 731 and 764 of the Dodd-Frank Act to provide that the initial and variation margin requirements do not apply to certain transactions with specified counterparties that qualify for an exemption or exception from clearing. Non-cleared swaps and non-cleared security-based swaps that are exempt under section 302 of TRIPRA are not subject to the Agenciesâ (the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the Farm Credit Administration, and the Federal Housing Finance Agency) rules implementing margin requirements. In section 303 of TRIPRA, Congress required that the Agencies implement the provisions of Title III of TRIPRA by promulgating an interim final rule and seeking public comment on the interim final rule.
