comment on renewal of its information collection entitled Summary of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Proposal to Renew the Following Currently Approved Collections of 
Information

    Title: Summary of Deposits.
    OMB Number: 3064-0061.
    Frequency of Response: Annual.
    Affected Public: Insured state nonmember banks and state savings 
associations.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 6535.
    Estimated Time per Response: 3 hours.
    Total Estimated Annual Burden: 19,605 hours.
    General Description of Collection: The annual Summary of Deposits 
(SOD) survey is completed as of June 30 each year by FDIC-insured 
commercial banks, FDIC-supervised savings banks, and insured branches 
of foreign banks. The SOD is a report on the amount of deposits for 
each authorized office of an insured bank with branches; banks without 
branches do not report. All data collected on the SOD submission are 
available to the public. The survey data provides a basis for measuring 
the competitive impact of bank mergers and has additional use in 
research on banking.

is necessary for the proper performance of the FDIC's functions, 
including whether the information has practical utility; (b) the 
accuracy of the estimates of the burden of the information collection, 
including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the information 
collection on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology. All 
comments will become a matter of public record.

    Dated at Washington, DC, this 30th day of February, 2014.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
