General Description of Collection: This collection implements a statutory requirement imposing reporting, disclosure and recordkeeping requirements on some community
reinvestment-related agreements between insured depository institutions or affiliates, and nongovernmental entities or persons.
The information assists interested members of the public in assessing whether the parties are fulfilling their agreements,
and helps the agencies understand how the institutions they regulate are fulfilling their CRA responsibilities. There is no
change in the method or substance of the collection. The overall reduction in burden hours is the result of economic fluctuation.
In particular, the decline in the estimated overall annual time burden from 42 hours in 2023 to 19 hours in 2026 is the result
of a reduction in the number respondents.
Request for Comment
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, including whether
the information has practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, including
the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information
to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All comments will become a matter of public
record.
