comment of a proposal to extend for three years, without revision, the
Market Risk Regulatory Report for Institutions Subject to the Market
Risk Capital Rule (FFIEC 102), which is currently an approved
collection of information for each agency. At the end of the comment
period for this notice, the FFIEC and the agencies will review any
comments received to determine whether to modify the proposal in
response to comments. As required by the PRA, the agencies will then
publish a second Federal Register notice for a 30-day comment period
and submit the final FFIEC 102 to OMB for review and approval.

General Description of Reports
The Market Risk Regulatory Report for Institutions Subject to the
Market Risk Capital Rule (FFIEC 102) is filed quarterly with the
agencies and provides information for market risk institutions, defined
for this purpose as those institutions that are subject to the market
risk capital rule as incorporated into Subpart F of the agencies'
regulatory capital rules \1\ (market risk institutions). Each market
risk institution is required to file the FFIEC 102 for the agencies'
use in assessing the reasonableness and accuracy of the institution's
calculation of its minimum capital requirements under the market risk
capital rule and in evaluating the institution's capital in relation to
its risks. Additionally, the market risk information collected in the
FFIEC 102: (a) Permits the agencies to monitor the market risk profile
of, and evaluate the impact and competitive implications of, the market
risk capital rule on individual market risk institutions and the
industry as a whole; (b) provides the most current statistical data
available to identify areas of market risk on which to focus for onsite
and offsite examinations; (c) allows the agencies to assess and monitor
the levels and components of each reporting institution's risk-based
capital requirements for market risk and the adequacy of the
institution's capital under the market risk capital rule; and (d)
assists market risk institutions in validating their implementation of
the market risk framework.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ 12 CFR 3.201 (OCC); 12 CFR 217.201 (Board); and 12 CFR
324.201 (FDIC). The market risk capital rule generally applies to
any banking institution with aggregate trading assets and trading
liabilities equal to (a) 10 percent or more of quarter-end total
assets or (b) $1 billion or more.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
