Abstract: The National Bank Act (for national banks and Federal branches and agencies) and the Home Owners’ Loan Act (for Federal savings associations) authorize the OCC to collect assessments, fees, or other charges as necessary or appropriate to carry out the responsibilities of the OCC. The OCC requires independent credit card national banks and independent credit card Federal savings associations (collectively, independent credit card institutions) to pay an additional assessment based on receivables attributable to accounts owned by the national bank or Federal savings association. The OCC requires independent credit card institutions to report receivables attributable data to the OCC semiannually or at a time specified by the OCC. The OCC uses the information to calculate the assessment for each national bank and Federal savings association and adjust the assessment rate for independent credit card institutions over time.
