ACTION: Submission for OMB review and comments request.

    Form Title: EIB 10-06 Application for Approved Finance Provider.
SUMMARY: The Export-Import Bank of the United States (Ex-Im Bank), as 
part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent 
burden, invites the general public and other Federal Agencies to 
comment on the proposed information collection, as required by the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
    Financial institutions interested in becoming an Approved Finance 
Provider (AFP) with EXIM Bank must complete this application in order 
to obtain approval to make loans under EXIM Bank insurance policies 
and/or enter into one or more Master Guarantee Agreements (MGA) with 
EXIM Bank. An AFP may participate in the Medium-Term Insurance, Bank 
Letter of Credit, and Financial Institution Buyer Credit programs as an 
insured lender, while AFPs approved for an MGA may apply for multiple 
loan or lease transactions to be guaranteed by EXIM Bank.
    EXIM Bank uses the information provided in the form and the 
supplemental information required to be submitted with the form to 
determine whether the lender qualifies to participate in its lender 
insurance and guarantee programs. The details are necessary to evaluate 
whether the lender has the capital to fund potential transactions, 
proper due diligence procedures, and the monitoring capacity to carry 
out transactions.
    The information collection tool can be reviewed at: http://exim.gov/sites/default/files/pub/pending/eib10_06.pdf.

DATES: Comments must be received on or before June 13, 2016 to be 
assured of consideration.
