    Title: Funding and Liquidity Risk Management.
    OMB Control No.: 1557-0244.
    Description: The Interagency Policy Statement on Funding and 
Liquidity Risk Management \1\ (Policy Statement) summarizes the 
principles of sound liquidity risk management that the Federal banking 
agencies have issued in the past \2\ and, where appropriate, harmonizes 
these principles with the international statement, issued by the Basel 
Committee on Banking Supervision, titled ``Principles for Sound 
Liquidity Risk Management and Supervision.'' \3\ The Policy Statement 
describes supervisory expectations for all depository institutions, 
including banks, savings associations, and credit unions.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ 75 FR 13656 (Mar. 22, 2010).
    \2\ For national banks and Federal savings associations, see the 
Comptroller's Handbook on Liquidity. For state member banks and bank 
holding companies, see the Federal Reserve's Commercial Bank 
Examination Manual (section 4020), Bank Holding Company Supervision 
Manual (section 4010), and Trading and Capital Markets Activities 
Manual (section 2030). For state non-member banks, see the FDIC's 
Revised Examination Guidance for Liquidity and Funds Management 
(Trans. No. 2002-01) (Nov. 19, 2001), and Financial Institution 
Letter 84-2008, Liquidity Risk Management (August 2008). For 
federally insured credit unions, see Letter to Credit Unions No. 02-
CU-05, Examination Program Liquidity Questionnaire (March 2002).
    \3\ Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, ``Principles for 
Sound Liquidity Risk Management and Supervision,'' September 2008. 
See www.bis.org/publ/bcbs144.htm. Federally insured credit unions 
are not directly referenced in the principles issued by the Basel 
Committee.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Section 14 of the Policy Statement provides that financial 
institutions should consider liquidity costs, benefits, and risks in 
strategic planning and budgeting processes. Significant business 
activities should be evaluated for liquidity risk exposure as well as 
profitability. More complex and sophisticated financial institutions 
should incorporate liquidity costs, benefits, and risks in the internal 
product pricing, performance measurement, and new product approval 
process for all material business lines, products, and activities. 
Incorporating the cost of liquidity into these functions should align 
the risk-taking incentives of individual business lines with the 
liquidity risk exposure their activities create for the institution as 
a whole. The quantification and attribution of liquidity risks should 
be

[[Page 31298]]

explicit and transparent at the line management level, and should 
include consideration of how liquidity would be affected under stressed 
conditions.
    Section 20 of the Policy Statement states that liquidity risk 
reports should provide aggregate information with sufficient supporting 
detail to enable management to assess the sensitivity of the 
institution to changes in market conditions, its own financial 
performance, and other important risk factors. Institutions also should 
report on the use and availability of government support, such as 
lending and guarantee programs, and implications on liquidity 
positions, particularly because these programs are generally temporary 
or reserved as a source for contingent funding.
    Type of Review: Regular.
    Affected Public: Businesses or other for-profit.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,069.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 78,096 hours.
    Comments: On February 24, 2022, the OCC published a 60-day notice 
for this information collection, 87 FR 10429. No comments were 
received. Comments continue to be invited on:
    (a) Whether the information collections are necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the OCC, including whether the 
information has practical utility;
    (b) The accuracy of the OCC's estimate of the information 
collection burden;
    (c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected;
    (d) Ways to minimize the burden of information collections on 
respondents, including through the use of automated collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology; and
    (e) Estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of the services necessary to provide the 
required information.
