*General Description of Collection:* When an insured depository institution (IDI) is closed by its primary regulatory authority, the FDIC has the responsibility to pay the insured deposits pursuant to section 11(a) and (f) of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act (FDI Act), 12 U.S.C. 1821(a) and (f); and the FDIC's regulations, “Deposit Insurance Coverage,” 12 CFR part 330, and “Recordkeeping for Timely Deposit Insurance Determination,” 12 CFR part 370. In the event that the requisite information is not available in a failed IDI's records, the FDIC will utilize these forms, declarations and affidavits to request the necessary information from a depositor. The forms are used to facilitate the FDIC's deposit insurance determinations in the event of the failure of an insured depository institution. It includes 19 information collection (IC) line items, including 15 that apply to both depositors and their agents ( *e.g.* deposit brokers) and four intended for use by agents alone.
There is no change in the substance or methodology of this information collection. The change in burden is due to the decline in estimated burden hours from 590 to 21 hours. The decline in estimated hours is driven by the decline in deposit insurance determinations and associated valid form submissions in the 2018-2022 period.
2. *Title:* Margin and Capital Requirements for Swap Entities [Interagency] IFR.
*OMB Number:* 3064-0204.
*Forms:* None.
*Affected Public:* Any FDIC-insured state-chartered bank that is not a member of the Federal Reserve System or FDIC-insured state-chartered savings association that is registered as a swap dealer, major swap participant, security based swap dealer, or major security based swap participant.
*Burden Estimate:*
| Information collection | Type of burden | Number of | Number of | Time per | Annual |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1. § 349.2 Definition of “Eligible Master Netting Agreement,” paragraphs (4)(i) and (ii) § 349.8(g) Documentation § 349.10 Documentation of Margin Matters (Mandatory) | Recordkeeping (Annual) | 1 | 1 | 5:00 | 5 |
| 2. § 349.7(c) Custody Agreement (Mandatory) | Recordkeeping (Annual) | 1 | 1 | 100:00 | 100 |
| 3. § 349.8(c) and (d) Initial Margin Model (Mandatory) | Reporting (On occasion) | 1 | 1 | 240:00 | 240 |
| 4. § 349.8(f)(3) Initial Margin Modeling Report (Mandatory) | Reporting (On occasion) | 1 | 1 | 50:00 | 50 |

| 7. Documentation, 12 CFR 349.8(g) (Mandatory) | Recordkeeping (Annual) | 1 | 1 | 80:00 | 80 |
| Total Annual Burden (Hours): | | | | | 505 |
*General Description of Collection:* The regulations at part 349 subpart A impose reporting and recordkeeping requirements, as defined by the PRA, on any FDIC-insured state-chartered bank that is not a member of the Federal Reserve System or FDIC-insured state-chartered savings association that is registered as a swap entity (covered swap entity). As such, the FDIC must periodically obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for these collections of information (ICs) with respect to covered swap entities. The OMB approves these ICs through OMB No. 3064-0204, and last approved the ICR on September 8, 2020 (2020 ICR). OMB No. 3064-0204 is set to expire on September 30, 2023. The 2020 ICR contained eleven ICs comprising 1,261 estimated annual responses for an estimated annual burden of 1,740 hours.
There is no change in the substance or methodology of this information collection. The change in burden is due to the decline in estimated burden hours from 1,760 to 505 hours. The decline in estimated hours is driven primarily from a reduction in the number of ICs relative to the 2020 ICR. The ICs from the 2020 ICR that were not included in this renewal had an estimated 1,253 annual responses and an estimated 1,295 annual burden hours.
**Request for Comment**
*Comments are invited on:* (a) whether the collections of information are 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 collections, 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 collections 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.
