Abstract: This collection of information consists of information that must be filed in connection with certain proposals involving the formation, acquisition, or merger of a savings and loan holding company (SLHC). The Board requires the submission of this filing from an applicant for regulatory and supervisory purposes and to allow the Board to fulfill its statutory obligations to review these transactions under section l0(e) of the Home Owners’ Loan Act (HOLA) (12 U.S.C. 1461 et. seq.) and the Board’s Regulation LL - Savings and Loan Holding Companies (12 CFR 238.11). The Board uses the information submitted by applicants to evaluate these transactions with respect to the financial and managerial resources and future prospects of the company(ies) and savings association(s) involved, the effect of the acquisition on the savings association(s), the insurance risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund, the convenience and needs of communities to be served, and competitive effects.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: Yes

Burden Reduction Due to: Miscellaneous Actions

Short Statement: The current estimated total annual burden for the FR LL-10(e) is 7,500 hours but would decrease to 900 hours. The average estimated hours per response would decrease from 500 hours to 60 hours. The decrease in the estimated time burden per response is partially attributable to a significant reduction in the information collected due to the proposed revisions to the FR LL-10(e). However, the majority of this decrease is due to the Board’s use for the first time of its own methodology for calculating the burden associated with the FR LL-10(e). The previous burden estimate was based on the calculation methodology used by the OTS to estimate the time burden associated with filing the Form H-(e). When the Board inherited the form from the OTS, the Board adopted the OTS’s estimates for time burden per response, and has continued to use that estimate until now. In connection with this proposal, the Board has estimated the time burden per response using the same methodology that it uses for other applications that have similar requirements. The Board does not have access to the methodology that the OTS used to calculate the estimated burden associated with filing Form H-(e), so it is not possible to state how the methodologies differ, or the reasons that the estimate using the Board’s methodology differs significantly from that of the OTS. The revised burden estimates are based on the number of applications and notifications, including post-consummation notices, received in 2016 and 2017.
