Current actions: On March 29, 2024, 

the Board published a notice in the 

Federal Register (89 FR 22145) 

requesting public comment for 60 days 

on the extension, with revision, of the 

FR Y–6, FR Y–7, FR Y–10, and FR Y– 

10E reports. The Board proposed to 

revise the FR Y–7 report by adding an 

electronic submission option and 

adding standard templates for reporting 

(1) financial statements, (2) 

organizational charts, (3) information 

about shares and shareholders, (4) a 

firm’s eligibility as a qualified FBO, and 

(5) a firm’s compliance with prudential 

standards. The proposal would also 

make minor clarifications and 

conforming edits to the FR Y–7 forms 

and instructions. The proposal included 

no changes to the FR Y–6, FR Y–10, or 

FR Y–10E. The comment period for this 

notice expired on May 28, 2024. The 

Board received one comment letter from 

an individual. 

Detailed Discussion of Public 

Comments 

The commenter remarked that the FR 

Y–6 allows a bank holding company 

(BHC) to request confidential treatment 

regarding insider ownership 

information and asked that this ability 

be removed. A reporter may request 

confidential treatment for any 

information submitted on the FR Y–6 

that the reporter believes is exempt from 

disclosure under the Freedom of 

Information Act (FOIA). The Board may 

grant a request for confidential 

treatment if the institution clearly has 

provided a compelling justification for 

the request. It is the Board’s practice to 

favor disclosure of principal securities 

holders’ information, but have granted 

past requests for confidential treatment, 

consistent with FOIA exemptions, when 

there was evidence of a well-defined 

present threat to the liberty or personal 

security of individuals. For this reason, 

the Board is maintaining the current 

process used to fulfill our obligation to 

consider requests for confidential 

treatment. 

The commenter also noted that 

individual Federal Reserve districts 

differ from each other on the ease of 

public access to FR Y–6 submissions 

and asks the Board to create a single, 

publicly accessible, nationwide FR Y–6 

database. The Board will take this into 

consideration during future technology 

enhancements for the FR Y–6. 

Additionally, limited structural data 

from the information collection are 

published on the National Information 

Center’s public website at https://

www.ffiec.gov/NPW. 

Lastly, the Board will delay the 

effective dates for the standard 

templates to December 31, 2025, and the 

automation changes to December 31, 

2026. Delaying these effective dates will 

allow sufficient time for the 

development of the necessary 

technology to support the changes in the 

proposal. Aside from this change, the 

Board adopted the extension, with 

revision, of the FR Y–7 report as 

originally proposed.
