The information requirements contained
in 12 CFR Part 12 provide records relevant to the purchase or sale
of securities transactions by national banks and national bank
personnel. The recordkeeping requirements serve to establish an
audit trail that is used by the OCC in its regulatory examinations.
The OCC uses the information to evaluate a national bank's
compliance with the anti-fraud provisions of the Federal securities
laws. The records also provide a basis for adequate disclosure to
customers.

The increase in burden is due
to the integration of the OTS with the OCC. The additional
respondents are entities formerly regulated by the OTS. These
recordkeeping requirements serve to establish an audit trail. That
audit trail is used by the OCC in its regulatory examinations as a
tool to evaluate a national bank's compliance with the anti-fraud
provisions of the Federal securities laws. Further, the records
provide a basis for adequate disclosure to customers who effect
securities transactions through national banks.
