Joint Release/Agencies Issue Proposal to Streamline Regulatory Reporting for Qualifying Small Institutions — 2018-11-07

Agencies Issue Proposal to Streamline Regulatory Reporting for Qualifying Small Institutions WASHINGTON—The three federal banking agencies today invited public comment on a proposal to reduce regulatory reporting burden on small institutions by expanding the number of regulated institutions eligible for streamlined reporting. The proposal would implement section 205 of the Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act. The proposal would permit insured depository institutions with total assets of less than $5 billion that do not engage in certain complex or international activities to file the most streamlined version of the Call Report, the FFIEC 051 Call Report. The agencies also are proposing to reduce by approximately 37 percent the number of existing data items reportable in the FFIEC 051 Call Reports for the first and third calendar quarters.
