Insured financial institutions must provide quarterly reports of condition and income (Call Reports) to the appropriate regulatory agency for supervisory, surveillance, regulatory, research, insurance assessment and informational purposes.
Section 7 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act requires all insured depository institutions to submit four "reports of condition" each year to their primary federal bank supervisory authority, i.e., the FDIC, the OCC, or the FRB, as appropriate. FDIC-supervised institutions, i.e., insured state nonmember banks and state savings associations, submit these reports to the FDIC. The FDIC uses the quarterly Call Reports to monitor the condition and performance of individual institutions and the industry as a whole. In addition, Call Reports provide the FDIC with the most current statistical data available for evaluating depository institution corporate applications such as mergers; identifying areas of focus for both on-site and off-site examinations; calculating all insured institutions' deposit insurance and Financing Corporation assessments; and other public purposes. Within the Call Report information collection system as it is proposed to be revised, separate report forms apply to institutions that have domestic and foreign offices (FFIEC 031) and to institutions with domestic offices only (FFIEC 041 and, for those with total assets less than $1 billion, FFIEC 051).
The proposed revisions to the Call Report that are the subject of this request, which would involve quarterly reporting unless otherwise indicated, and their effective dates are summarized as follows
The FDIC, the FRB, and the OCC (collectively, the agencies) are proposing to revise the Call Report information collection by (1) creating a proposed new Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for a Bank with Domestic Offices Only and Total Assets Less than $1 Billion (FFIEC 051) and (2) revising certain schedules on the existing FFIEC 031 (Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for a Bank with Domestic and Foreign Offices) and FFIEC 041 (Consolidated Reports of Condition and Income for a Bank with Domestic Offices Only) by removing data items or introducing new or higher reporting thresholds for certain items.
