Proposal Under OMB Delegated 

Authority To Extend for Three Years, 

With Revision, the Following 

Information Collection 

Collection title: Reporting, 

Recordkeeping, and Disclosure 

Requirements Associated with 

Regulation LL. 

Collection identifier: FR LL. 

OMB control number: 7100–0380. 

General description of collection: 

Regulation LL—Savings and Loan 

Holding Companies (12 CFR part 238) 

requires certain large savings and loan 

holding companies (SLHCs) to submit a 

capital plan to the Board on an annual 

basis, request prior approval from the 

Board under certain circumstances 

before making a capital distribution, 

conduct company-run periodic stress 

tests, report the results of its companyrun stress tests to the Board, publicly 

disclose a summary of the results of 

such stress tests, and comply with 

certain other reporting and 

recordkeeping requirements. Capital is 

central to a firm’s ability to absorb 

unexpected losses and continue to lend 

to creditworthy businesses and 

consumers. The Board’s capital 

planning requirements for large bank 

holding companies help to ensure that 

these firms have robust systems and 

processes that incorporate forwardlooking projections of revenue and 

losses to monitor and maintain their 

internal capital adequacy. The Board’s 

stress testing and stress capital buffer 

requirements help ensure that a firm can 

meet its obligations to creditors and 

other counterparties, as well as continue 

to serve as a financial intermediary 

through periods of financial and 

economic stress. 

Proposed revisions: The Board is 

proposing to revise the FR LL to account 

for several reporting provisions and one 

recordkeeping provision which have not 

been previously cleared by the Board 

under the PRA. 

Reporting Requirements 

Section 238.132(c)(2)(i) provides that 

the Board may conduct a stress test on 

an SLHC (other than an foreign banking 

organization) with average total 

consolidated assets of $100 billion or 

more on a more or less frequent basis 

than would be required under paragraph 

(c)(1). Section 238.132(c)(3)(iii) permits 

an SLHC to request in writing that the 

Board reconsider the requirement to 

conduct a stress test on a more or less 

frequent basis than would be required 

under (c)(1). This request must include 

an explanation as to why the request for 

reconsideration should be granted. The 

Board will respond in writing within 14 

calendar days of receipt of the request. 

This request would be submitted via the 

Federal Reserve’s IntraLinks system. 

Section 238.143(a)(3)(ii) permits a 

Category II SLHC, Category III SLHC, or 

a SLHC with average total consolidated 

assets of greater than $250 billion to 

request in writing that the Board 

reconsider the requirement to conduct a 

stress test on a more or less frequent 

basis than would be required under 

paragraph (a)(2)(i). This request must 

include an explanation as to why the 

request for reconsideration should be 

granted. The Board will respond in 

writing within 14 calendar days of 

receipt of the request. This request 

would be submitted via the Federal 

Reserve’s IntraLinks system. 

Section 238.143(b)(4) provides that if 

the Board requires a Category II SLHC, 

Category III SLHC, or a SLHC with 

average total consolidated assets of 

greater than $250 billion to include one

controls, oversight, and documentation,
