Agency form number: FFIEC 031-034

General description of report:
This information collection is mandatory (12 U.S.C. 324) and is
given partial confidential treatment.
SUMMARY:
On a quarterly basis, state member banks are required to file
detailed schedules of assets, liabilities, and capital in the form of a
condition report and summary statement; detailed schedule of operating
income and expense, sources and disposition of income, and changes in
equity capital in the form of an income statement; and a variety of
supporting schedules. Data are used for supervisory and monetary policy
purposes. The proposed changes affect several existing Call Report
schedules. Unless otherwise indicated, the proposed changes would apply
to all four sets of reporting forms (FFIEC 031, FFIEC 032, FFIEC 033,
and FFIEC 034); the proposed changes are as follows:
(1) Revisions to the reporting of securities in the following Call
Report schedules to reflect the effect of Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement No. 115, ``Accounting for Certain Investments
in Debt and Equity Securities'' (FASB 115), which banks must adopt for
Call Report purposes for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1993:
(a) In the body of Schedule RC-B, ``Securities,'' the amortized
cost and fair value for each type of held-to-maturity securities would
be reported separately from the amortized cost and fair value for each
type of available-for-sale securities. On the FFIEC 031 report forms,
the breakdown of securities (not held in trading accounts) in domestic
offices by type of security would be moved from the body of Schedule
RC-B to Schedule RC-H, ``Selected Balance Sheet Items for Domestic
Offices.''
(b) In the Memoranda section of Schedule RC-B, Memorandum items 3,
``Taxable securities issued by states and political subdivisions in the
U.S.,'' and 5, ``Debt securities for sale,'' would be deleted. A new
Memorandum item would be added for the amortized cost of held-to-
maturity securities sold or transferred during the calendar year-to-
date.
(c) On Schedule RC, ``Balance Sheet,'' item 2, ``Securities,''
would be split into separate items for ``Available-for-sale
securities'' and ``Held-to-maturity securities,'' while item 26.b would
be recaptioned as ``Net unrealized holding gains (losses) on available-
for-sale securities.''
(d) On Schedule RI, ``Income Statement,'' item 6, ``Gains (Losses)
on securities not held in trading accounts,'' would be split into
separate items for gains (losses) on available-for-sale securities and
held-to-maturity securities.
(e) On Schedule RI-A, ``Changes in Equity Capital,'' item 11 would
be recaptioned as ``Change in net unrealized holding gains (losses) on
available-for-sale securities.''
(2) On Schedule RC-M, ``Memoranda,'' new items would be added for
the amount of mutual funds (segregated into four categories) and
annuities sold during the quarter by the reporting bank and by third
parties with whom the bank has a contractual sales arrangement. In
Schedule RI, ``Income Statement,'' a Memorandum item would be added for
fee income from the sale and servicing of mutual funds and annuities.
(3) On Schedule RC, ``Balance Sheet,'' item 16 for ``Other borrowed
money'' would be split into separate subitems for amounts with an
original maturity of one year or less and for amounts with an original
maturity of more than one year. In addition, a new category of
liabilities, ``Trading liabilities,'' would begin to be reported on
Schedule RC.
(4) On Schedule RC-O, ``Other Data for Deposit Insurance
Assessments,'' a new item would be added for ``Benefit-responsive
Depository Institution Investment Contracts.''
(5) On the FFIEC 031 and 032 report forms:
(a) Schedule RC-D would be revised to cover both trading assets and
liabilities, including new items for three categories of mortgage-
backed securities, trading assets in foreign offices (on the FFIEC 031
report forms), revaluation gains (broken down between domestic offices
and foreign offices on the FFIEC 031) and revaluation losses on
interest rate, foreign exchange rate, and other commodity and equity
contracts, and liability for short positions. In addition to the banks
with $1 billion or more in total assets that are currently required to
complete Schedule RC-D, those banks with $2 billion or more in par-
notional amount of interest rate, foreign exchange rate, and other
commodity and equity contracts (and less than $1 billion in total
assets) will be required to complete the schedule.
(b) Schedule RC-N, which collects past due and nonaccrual data,
would see the addition of new items for interest rate, foreign exchange
rate, and other commodity and equity contracts that are past due 30
through 89 days or past due 90 days or more. Banks would report the
book value of amounts carried as assets on the balance sheet for such
past due contracts as well as the replacement cost of those past due
contracts with a positive replacement cost. Consistent with the
existing treatment of Schedule RC-N data, individual bank information
on contracts past due 30 through 89 days would be treated as
confidential.
(6) On Schedule RC-C, part I, ``Loans and Leases,'' a single total
would be reported for ``Obligations (other than securities and leases)
of states and political subdivisions in the U.S.'' and the separate
items for taxable and tax-exempt obligations would be eliminated.
(7) Memorandum items 1 and 2 on Schedule RC-L, ``Off-Balance Sheet
Items,'' which collect data on certain loan sales and purchases during
the quarter would be deleted.
In addition, the general Call Report instruction precluding assets
and liabilities from being offset or otherwise netted unless
specifically required by the instructions would be modified to allow
on-balance sheet amounts associated with conditional and exchange
contracts (e.g., forwards, interest rate swaps, and options) to be
offset in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board
Interpretation No. 39. This would be an interim treatment pending
clarification of an interpretive issue under Interpretation No. 39.
Consistent with existing Call Report instructions, the netting of
assets and liabilities other than those arising from conditional and
exchange contracts will not be permitted unless specifically required
by the instructions.
The effective date for these proposed changes, if approved, would
be the March 31, 1994, report date.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, January 13,
1994.
William W. Wiles,
Secretary of the Board.
