The Federal Reserve Bank of New York
(FRBNY), on behalf of the Federal Reserve, collects data from
primary dealers in the U.S. government securities market. Filing of
the data is required to obtain the benefit of primary dealer
status. The Federal Reserve uses these data to monitor the
condition of the U.S. government securities market in its
surveillance and analysis of the market and to assist the U.S.
Department of the Treasury (Treasury). In addition, these data are
helpful in the analysis of broad financial conditions and a range
of financial stability issues.

The current annual burden for
the FR 2004 is estimated to be 12,873 hours. While the new
information requested is readily available to the respondents,
significant programming and other resources are required to
implement and maintain the proposed changes. In addition, the
increased burden would not affect each primary dealer equally as
some dealers have only a minimal presence in the new asset classes
such as municipal bonds and ABS, which would require only minor
implementation costs. The proposed new and revised data items would
increase the estimated average hours per response for several
reports as follows: the FR 2004A would increase from 1.5 hours to
2.8 hours; the FR 2004B would increase from 2.0 hours to 3.5 hours;
the FR 2004C would increase from 1.25 hours to 3.0 hours; and the
FR 2004SI and SD would increase from 2.0 hours to 2.1 hours. Based
on the proposed revisions, the total annual burden would increase
by 5,131 hours to 18,004 hours.
