received will be analyzed to determine 

the extent to which the Board should 

modify the proposal. 

Proposal Under OMB Delegated 

Authority To Implement the Following 

Information Collection 

Report title: Treasury Securities and 

Agency Debt and Mortgage-Backed 

Securities Reporting Requirements. 

Agency form number: FR 2956. 

OMB control number: 7100–NEW. 

Frequency: Daily. 

Respondents: Depository institutions 

that meet the reporting thresholds and 

daily transact in trading of marketable 

U.S. Treasury securities and the trading 

of the debt and mortgage-backed 

securities issued by agencies. 

Estimated number of respondents: 

Treasury securities, 10; Agency debt and 

mortgage-backed securities, 12. 

Estimated average hours per response: 

3. 

Estimated annual burden hours: 

16,500. 

General description of report: The 

proposed FR 2956 would collect 

detailed data on depository institutions’ 

daily transactions of marketable U.S. 

Treasury securities and of the debt and 

mortgage-backed securities (MBS) 

issued by U.S. federal government 

agencies including governmentsponsored enterprises (agencies). The 

report would have two parts: Part 1 

would collect data on transactions in 

U.S. Treasury debt, and Part 2 would 

collect transactions in debt and MBS 

issued by agencies. Depository 

institutions subject to reporting under 

Parts 1 and 2 of the FR 2956 collection 

would be required to report all the 

transaction details, information, and 

fields as described in the applicable 

Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine 

(TRACE) technical documentation, 

FAQs, and guides located at https://

www.finra.org/filing-reporting/trace/ 

documentation. This information would 

include, but is not limited to, the 

Committee on Uniform Securities 

Identification Procedures (CUSIP) 

number or similar identifier, the 

transaction size (volume), price of the 

transaction, date of trade execution, 

time of execution, and date of 

settlement. The Board is proposing to 

implement the FR 2956 in 2021. 

Every national bank, state member 

bank, state non-member bank, savings 

association, or U.S. branch and agency 

of a foreign bank filing a Notice of 

Government Securities Broker or 

Government Dealer Activities Form 

(From G–FIN; OMB No. 7100–0224) 

with average daily transaction volumes 

of over $100 million, for U.S. Treasury 

debt, or over $50 million, for agencyissued debt and MBS, during the prior 

fiscal year would be subject to the 

proposed reporting requirements. 

Depository institutions subject to the 

reporting requirements of the proposed 

FR 2956 would electronically report 

transactions through the Board’s data 

collection vendor, the Financial 

Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA), 

utilizing its Trade Reporting and 

Compliance Engine (TRACE). 

Legal authorization and 

confidentiality: The FR 2956 is 

authorized by sections 2A and 11 of the 

Federal Reserve Act (‘‘FRA’’). Section 

2A of the FRA requires that the Board 

and the FOMC maintain long-run 

growth of the monetary and credit 

aggregates commensurate with the 

economy’s long run potential to increase 

production, so as to promote effectively 

the goals of maximum employment, 

stable prices, and moderate long-term 

interest rates. Section 11 of the FRA 

authorizes the Board to require reports 

from depository institutions as it may 

deem necessary and authorizes the 

Board to prescribe reports of liabilities 

and assets from insured depository 

institutions to enable the Board to 

discharge its responsibility to monitor 

and control monetary and credit 

aggregates. The obligation to respond to 

the FR 2956 would be mandatory. The 

information collected through the FR 

2956 would not be considered 

confidential. 

Consultation outside the agency: As 

part of an interagency workgroup, the 

Board has consulted with the U.S. 

Treasury Department, the U.S. 

Securities and Exchange Commission, 

the Commodity and Futures Trading 

Commission, and FINRA on this 

collection.

FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION 

Revised Jurisdictional Thresholds for 

Section 8 of the Clayton Act 

AGENCY: Federal Trade Commission. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Federal Trade 

Commission announces the revised 

thresholds for interlocking directorates 

required by the 1990 amendment of 

Section 8 of the Clayton Act. Section 8 

prohibits, with certain exceptions, one 

person from serving as a director or 

officer of two competing corporations if 

two thresholds are met. Competitor 

corporations are covered by Section 8 if 

each one has capital, surplus, and 

undivided profits aggregating more than 

$10,000,000, with the exception that no 

corporation is covered if the competitive 

sales of either corporation are less than 

$1,000,000. Section 8(a)(5) requires the 

Federal Trade Commission to revise 

those thresholds annually, based on the 

change in gross national product. The 

new thresholds, which take effect 

immediately, are $37,382,000 for 

Section 8(a)(1), and $3,738,200 for 

Section 8(a)(2)(A). 

DATES: January 21, 2021.
