SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Proposal to revise the following currently
approved collection of information:
Title: Deposit Broker Processing.
OMB Number: 3064-0143.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Deposit brokers and depositors of failed insured
institutions.
Estimated Number of Responses: See chart below.
Estimated Time per Response: See chart below.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 2875 hours.
General Description of Collection: When an insured institution is
closed by its primary regulatory authority, the FDIC has the
responsibility to pay the insured claims of the failed bank depositors
pursuant to the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the FDIC's Deposit
Insurance Coverage regulation, 12 CFR part 330. Generally, deposits are
insured to a maximum of $100,000. This maximum coverage is based on
``ownership rights and capacities.'' All deposits that are maintained
in the same right and capacity are added together and insured up to
$100,000 in accordance with the regulations relating to deposit
insurance of that particular deposit insurance ownership category.
Deposits held in different ownership categories are eligible for
$100,000 coverage per category. For example, as a general rule, single-
ownership accounts are separately insured from trust accounts held for
the benefit of others.
In order to assist the FDIC in paying deposit insurance to persons
who had deposited funds in a failed depository institution through a
deposit broker, the FDIC requests deposit brokers who opened a deposit
account in a failed institution to provide the FDIC with information
about the parties for whom the broker acted as agent and the amounts of
their deposits. An essential element of this collection is an
electronic file from every broker that provides information about its
customers and their accounts, including: Each customer's name, address,
tax identification number, and ownership interest in the account;
principal balance of the account; and interest earned on the account.
The FDIC also has developed forms to assist in determining account
ownership and the availability of ``pass-through'' deposit insurance
coverage where the account balance exceeds $100,000. The FDIC form
numbers are 7200/03, /04, /05, /06, /07, /08, /09, /10, /11, /12, /13,
/14, and /15.
The FDIC uses these same forms to determine whether individual
account holders at failed institutions may receive pass-through deposit
insurance coverage. The FDIC's use of these forms for individuals has
been approved by OMB under PRA control number 3064-0150 (expires
September 30, 2007).
In order to facilitate public access to the common forms and to
improve administrative efficiency, the FDIC proposes to consolidate the
two OMB approved collections into a single collection titled, ``Forms
Relating to Processing Deposit Insurance Claims,'' under the 3064-0143
control number.
