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 revising the Call Report information collection in an ongoing effort to reduce the burden associated with their preparation and filing. The revisions consolidate, delete, or raise the reporting threshold for a number of line items, overall continuing the process of reforming the Call Report to focus on truly valuable information and removing items of little or no value.
