Sections 106 and 202 of the Federal
Credit Union Act require federally insured credit unions (FICUs) to
make financial reports to the NCUA. Section 741.6 of the NCUA Rules
and Regulations requires all FICUs to submit a Call Report (NCUA
Form 5300) quarterly. Financial information collected through the
Call Report is essential to NCUA supervision of federal credit
unions. This information also facilitates NCUA monitoring of other
credit unions with share accounts insured by the National Credit
Union Share Insurance Fund (NCUSIF).
Pursuant to the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) procedures established at 5 CFR
1320.13, the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA) requests
emergency processing for the NCUA Call Report (Form 5300)
information collection request, revising OMB control number
3133-0004, to capture changes necessitated by the promulgation of a
recent final rulemaking. The NCUA Board approved Final Rule,
Capital Adequacy: The Complex Credit Union Leverage Ratio;
Risk-Based Capital, on December 16, 2021, which was published in
the Federal Register on December 23, 2021, at 86 FR 72784, with an
effective date January 1, 2022. Because of the effective date of
this rule and the advance time needed by the NCUA to incorporate
updates to the online reporting system prior to the March 2022 Call
Report cycle and to provide the reporting system changes to the
NCUA’s federally insured credit unions (FICUs) in a timely manner,
we are submitting these changes for emergency consideration. The
Call Report collects financial and statistical information and is
vital to the NCUA’s supervision and off-site monitoring of its
FICUs and to safeguard the National Credit Union Administration’s
Share Insurance Fund. Given the inability to seek public comment
during such a short timeframe, the NCUA requests a waiver from the
requirement to publish a notice in the Federal Register seeking
public comment during the period of OMB review. To avoid any
substantial delay, the NCUA will publish a separate notice and seek
public comment on the revision to the information collection
requirement currently covered by OMB control number 3133-0004, NCUA
Call Report.
