6An institution must still meet the other criteria 

for eligibility for the FFIEC 051 in the Call Report 

instructions. 

measurement dates for FFIEC 051 Call 

Report eligibility,6 and the agencies 

proposed conforming changes to the 

Call Report instructions. However, the 

IFR did not modify the total 

consolidated assets FFIEC 051 eligibility 

criteria of less than $5 billion contained 

in the rule’s definition of covered 

depository institution. The agencies 

intend for the Call Report instructions to 

be consistent with the rule’s definition 

of covered depository institutions. 

In addition to the comments received 

on the proposed Call Report revisions, 

the agencies received comments on their 

IFR. In order to implement reporting 

changes related to the IFR so that they 

are effective for the March 31, 2021, Call 

Report, the agencies must publish this 

notice in advance of concluding their 

review of comments on the IFR. 

Therefore, if any potential changes to 

the IFR would affect the Call Report, the 

agencies would publish for comment 

any associated revisions to the Call 

Report through the standard PRA 

process, as appropriate. 

After considering the comments, the 

agencies are proceeding with the 

changes to the Call Reports as proposed. 

The agencies also received a question 

from a Call Report software provider 

seeking clarification of the total asset 

amounts reported and used in 

calculations related to certain qualifying 

eligibility criteria for the CBLR. 

Generally, the Call Report instructions 

direct an institution to report total assets 

as reported in Schedule RC, item 12, in 

Schedule RC–R, Part I, item 32, ‘‘Total 

assets,’’ and use that total asset amount 

for other calculations in Schedule 

RC–R, Part I. An institution that is 

eligible for and elects to use the CBLR 

framework pursuant to the agencies’ IFR 

would report the lesser of its total assets 

reported in Schedule RC, item 12, as of 

December 31, 2019, or as of the current 

quarter-end report date in Schedule 

RC–R, Part I, item 32. However, the 

agencies are clarifying that an 

institution should continue to use its 

total assets as reported in Schedule RC, 

item 12, as of the current quarter-end 

report date when reporting other 

qualifying criteria for the CBLR 

framework, i.e., the sum of trading 

assets and trading liabilities as a 

percentage of total assets in Schedule 

RC–R, item 33, column B, and total offbalance sheet exposures as a percentage 

of total assets in Schedule RC–R, Part I, 

item 34.d, column B. 

III. Timing 

As stated in the November 2020 

notice, the agencies propose to permit 

an institution to use the lesser of the 

total consolidated assets reported in its 

Call Report as of December 31, 2019, or 

June 30, 2020, when determining its 

eligibility to file the FFIEC 051 Call 

Report and whether the institution has 

crossed a total asset threshold that 

requires the reporting of certain 

additional data items in its Call Reports 

(FFIEC 031, FFIEC 041, or FFIEC 051, as 

applicable) for report dates in calendar 

year 2021. The agencies are proposing 

this relief for calendar year 2021 only. 

In addition, for report dates after the 

effective date of the agencies’ asset 

thresholds rule through December 31, 

2021, institutions that elect to use the 

CBLR framework would report CBLR 

information in Call Report Schedule 

RC–R, Part I, as reflected in the Call 

Report instruction book, except that 

item 32 (Total assets) on that schedule 

should reflect the lesser of the 

institution’s total assets as of December 

31, 2019, or as of the current quarterend report date and other qualifying 

criteria reported on that schedule based 

on percentages of total assets should use 

the total assets as of the current quarterend report date.
