The FR Y-8 collects information on
covered transactions between an insured depository institution and
its affiliates that are subject to the quantitative limits and
other requirements of section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act (12
U.S.C. 371c) and the Board’s Regulation W - Transactions Between
Member Banks and Their Affiliates (12 CFR part 223). The FR Y-8 is
filed quarterly by all U.S. top-tier bank holding companies (BHCs)
and savings and loan holding companies (SLHCs), and by foreign
banking organizations (FBOs) that directly own or control a U.S.
subsidiary insured depository institution. If an FBO indirectly
controls a U.S. insured depository institution through a U.S.
holding company, only the U.S. holding company must file the FR
Y-8. A respondent must file a separate report for each U.S. insured
depository institution it controls. The FR Y-8 comprises a cover
page and two pages collecting data on covered transactions and
derivatives. Section 23A of the Federal Reserve Act limits an
insured depository institution’s exposure to affiliated entities
and helps to protect against the expansion of the federal safety
net to uninsured entities. The primary purpose of the data is to
enhance the Board’s ability to monitor the credit exposure of
insured depository institutions to their affiliates and to ensure
that insured depository institutions are in compliance with section
23A.
