    Agency Forms Under Review
    
    AGENCY: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.
    
    ACTION: Notice.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    BACKGROUND: On June 15, 1984, the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
    delegated to the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System 
    (Board) its approval authority under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
    1980, as per 5 CFR 1320.9, to approve of and assign OMB control numbers 
    to collection of information requests and requirements conducted or 
    sponsored by the Board under conditions set forth in 5 CFR 1320.9. 
    Board-approved collections of information will be incorporated into the 
    official OMB inventory of currently approved collections of 
    information. A copy of the OMB 83I and supporting statement and the 
    approved collection of information instrument(s) will be placed into 
    OMB's public docket files. The following forms, which are being handled 
    under this delegated authority, have received initial Board approval 
    and are hereby published for comment. At the end of the comment period, 
    the proposed information collection, along with an analysis of comments 
    and recommendations received, will be submitted to the Board for final 
    approval under OMB delegated authority.
    
    DATES: Comments must be submitted on or before January 11, 1995.
    
    ADDRESSES: Comments, which should refer to the OMB Docket number (or 
    Agency form number in the case of a new information collection that has 
    not yet been assigned an OMB number), should be addressed to Mr. 
    William W. Wiles, Secretary, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve 
    System, 20th and C Streets, NW., Washington, DC 20551, or delivered to 
    the Board's mail room between 8:45 a.m. and 5:15 p.m., and to the 
    security control room outside of those hours. Both the mail room and 
    the security control room are accessible from the courtyard entrance on 
    20th Street between Constitution Avenue and C Street, NW. Comments 
    received may be inspected in room B-1122 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., 
    except as provided in section 261.8 of the Board's Rules Regarding 
    Availability of Information, 12 CFR 261.8(a).
        A copy of the comments may also be submitted to the OMB desk 
    officer for the Board: Milo Sunderhauf, Office of Information and 
    Regulatory Affairs, Office of Management and Budget, New Executive 
    Office Building, room 3208, Washington, DC 20503.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: A copy of the proposed form, the 
    request for clearance (OMB 83I), supporting statement, instructions, 
    and other documents that will be placed into OMB's public docket files 
    once approved may be requested from the agency clearance officer, whose 
    name appears below. Mary M. McLaughlin, Federal Reserve Board Clearance 
    Officer (202-452-3829), Division of Research and Statistics, Board of 
    Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Washington, D.C. 20551. For 
    the hearing impaired only, Telecommunications Device for the Deaf (TDD) 
    Dorothea Thompson (202-452-3544), Board of Governors of the Federal 
    Reserve System, Washington, DC 20551.
        Proposal to approve under OMB delegated authority the extension, 
    with revisions, of the following reports:
    1. Report title: Report of Foreign (Non-U.S.) Currency Deposits
        Agency form number: FR 2915.
        OMB Docket number: 7100-0237.
        Frequency: Quarterly.
        Reporters: Depository institutions.
        Annual reporting hours: 418.
        Estimated average hours per response: 0.50.
        Number of respondents: 209.
        Small businesses are affected.
        General description of report: This information collection is 
    required [12 U.S.C. Sec. 248(a)] and is given confidential treatment [5 
    U.S.C. Sec. 552(b)(4)].
        Abstract: The FR 2915 reporting form collects weekly averages of 
    the amounts outstanding for foreign (non-U.S.) currency deposits held 
    at U.S. offices of depository institutions, converted to U.S. dollars 
    and included in the FR 2900 (OMB No. 7100-0087), the principal deposits 
    report that is used for the calculation of required reserves and for 
    construction of the monetary and reserves aggregates. Foreign currency 
    deposits are subject to reserve requirements and, therefore, are 
    included in the FR 2900. However, foreign currency deposits are not 
    included in the monetary aggregates. The FR 2915 data are used to back 
    foreign currency deposits out of the FR 2900 data for construction of 
    the monetary aggregates. The FR 2915 data also are used to monitor the 
    volume of foreign-currency deposits.
        The Federal Reserve proposes to reduce the reporting frequency for 
    current monthly reporters to quarterly. The proposed revision would 
    reduce the annual reporting burden for this report by 66 percent.
    2. Report title: Financial Statements for a Bank Holding Company 
    Subsidiary Engaged in Bank-Ineligible Securities Underwriting and 
    Dealing
        Agency form number: FR Y-20.
        OMB Docket number: 7100-0248.
        Frequency: Quarterly.
        Reporters: Bank Holding Companies.
        Annual reporting hours: 1,519.
        Estimated average hours per response: 12.25.
        Number of respondents: 31.
        Small businesses are not affected.
        General description of report: This information collection is 
    mandatory to obtain or retain a benefit [12 U.S.C. 1844(b) and (c)] and 
    is given confidential treatment [5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)].
        Abstract: This report is filed by bank holding companies that have 
    received the Board's approval by Order to engage in limited 
    underwriting and dealing in securities of a type which a bank may not 
    underwrite or deal in directly. The report consists of a balance sheet, 
    statement of income, supporting schedules for securities owned, and a 
    statement of changes in stockholders' equity. In addition, there are 
    several memoranda items which collect information on intercompany 
    liabilities and off-balance sheet items, and information that is needed 
    for an alternative measure of indexed-revenue. The proposed minor 
    change, to become effective as of December 31, 1994, involves the 
    addition of memoranda items on the income statement to collect year-to-
    date gross income, total expenses, and net income.
    
        By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve 
    System, December 20, 1994.
    William W. Wiles,
    Secretary of the Board.
