*General Description of Collection:*                     With certain exceptions, section 24 of the FDI Act (12 U.S.C. 1831a) limits the direct equity investments of state chartered banks to equity investments that are permissible for national banks. In addition, the statute prohibits an insured state bank from directly engaging as principal in any activity that is not permissible for a national bank or indirectly through a subsidiary in an activity that is not permissible for a subsidiary of a national bank unless the bank meets its minimum capital requirements and the FDIC determines that the activity does not pose significant risk to the Deposit Insurance Fund. The FDIC can make such a determination for exception by regulation or by order. The FDIC's implementing regulation for section 24 is 12 CFR part 362. It details the activities that insured state nonmember banks or their subsidiaries may engage in, under certain criteria and conditions, and identifies the information that banks must furnish to the FDIC in order to obtain the FDIC's approval or non-objection.

*General Description of Collection:*                     Sections 303.161 and 333.4 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations require State savings banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System to file with the FDIC a notice of intent to convert to stock form and to provide copies of documents filed with State and Federal banking and/or securities regulators in connection with the proposed conversion.
