12 CFR Part 11 requires registered
national banks to file SEC forms concerning their securities
transactions with the OCC. The OCC needs the information to ensure
compliance with Federal law. Investors, depositors, and the public
use the information to make informed investment decisions.
The decrease in burden is due
to the re-estimation of the burden carried by the Office of Thrift
Supervision ("OTS") prior to the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the enactment of the
JOBS Act as described below. On April 5, 2012, the Jumpstart Our
Business Startups Act (the "JOBS Act") amended the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 ("Exchange Act") to raise the initial
registration threshold for national banks and Federal savings
associations under section 12(g) of the Exchange Act to 2,000
holders of record. It also amended the Exchange Act to allow
registered national banks and Federal savings associations with
less than 1,200 holders of record to terminate Exchange Act Section
12(g) registration. The JOBS Act was effective on enactment. Former
burden: 147 respondents; 390 responses, 27,314 burden hours New
burden: 14 respondents; 78 responses; 523 burden hours Difference:
- 133 respondents; - 312 responses; - 26,791.5 burden hours
