General Description of Collection:
FDIC regulations (12 CFR 333.2)
prohibit any insured State nonmember
bank from changing the general
character of its business without the
prior written consent of the FDIC. The
exercise of trust powers by a bank is
usually considered to be a change in the
general character of a bank’s business if
the bank did not exercise those powers
previously. Therefore, unless a bank is
currently exercising trust powers, it
must file a formal application to obtain
the FDIC’s written consent to exercise
trust powers. State banking authorities,
not the FDIC, grant trust powers to their
banks. The FDIC merely consents to the
exercise of such powers. Applicants use
form FDIC 6200/09 to obtain FDIC’s
consent.
2. Title: Certified Statement for
Quarterly Deposit Insurance
Assessment.

OMB Number: 3064–0057.

depository institutions.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
6,081.
Frequency of Response: Quarterly.
Estimated Annual Burden Hours per
Response: 20 minutes.
Total Estimated Annual Burden:
8,108 hours.
General Description of Collection: The
FDIC collects deposit insurance
assessments on a quarterly basis. Each
assessment is based on the institution’s
quarterly report of condition for the
prior calendar quarter. The FDIC
collects the quarterly payments by
means of direct debits through the
Automated Clearing House network.
The collection dates for the first period
of any given year (January through June)
are June 30 and September 30 of the
current year. The collection dates for the

second period (July through December)
are December 30 of the current year and
March 30 of the following year. The
information collection consists of
recordkeeping associated with reviews
by officials of the insured institutions to
confirm that the assessment data are
accurate and, in cases of inaccuracy,
submission of corrected data.
The FDIC is requesting OMB to
approve the change of the name of the
collection from Certified Statement for
Semiannual Deposit Insurance
Assessment to Quarterly Certified
Statement Invoice for Deposit Insurance
Assessment to reflect the fact that
deposit insurance assessment invoices
are issued on a quarterly as opposed to
a semiannual basis.

General Description: In August, 2010,
the Office of the Comptroller of the
Currency (OCC), Board of Governors of
the Federal Reserve System (FRB) the
National Credit Union Administration
(NCUA) and the FDIC, issued guidance
focusing on the need to provide
adequate information to consumers
about reverse mortgage products; to
provide qualified independent
counseling to consumers considering
these products; and to avoid potential
conflicts of interest. The guidance also
addressed related policies, procedures,
internal controls, and third party risk
management. Prior to the effective date
of the final guidance, the Agencies
obtained PRA approval from OMB for
the information collection requirements
contained therein. These information
collection requirements included
implementation of policies and
procedures, training, and program
maintenance. The requirements are
outlined below:
• Institutions offering reverse
mortgages should have written policies
and procedures that prohibit the
practice of directing a consumer to a
particular counseling agency or
contacting a counselor on the
consumer’s behalf.
1 FDIC estimates that the number of respondents
will be 26 (25 that have already implemented the

• Policies should be clear so that
originators do not have an inappropriate
incentive to sell other products that
appear linked to the granting of a
mortgage.
• Legal and compliance reviews
should include oversight of
compensation programs so that lending
personnel are not improperly
encouraged to direct consumers to
particular products.
• Training should be designed so that
relevant lending personnel are able to
convey information to consumers about
product terms and risks in a timely,
accurate, and balanced manner.
