Regulation H requires certain state
member banks (SMBs) to submit information relating to their
securities to the Federal Reserve on the same reporting forms that
bank holding companies and nonbank entities use to submit similar
information to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).
Because most publicly held banking organizations are bank holding
companies, only three SMBs, which are generally small, currently
submit these data. The information is primarily used for disclosure
to a SMB’s shareholders and public investors and is available to
the public upon request. The reporting frequency varies, depending
on the SEC reporting form being submitted.
