*General description of report:*                     This collection concerns internal records that internationally active U.S. banking organizations (such as internationally active member banks, Edge Act and agreement corporations, and bank holding companies) should maintain to demonstrate compliance with the investment provisions contained in Subpart A of Regulation K—International Banking Operations.                

*Legal authorization and confidentiality:*                     The FR 2064 is authorized pursuant to section 5(c) of the Bank Holding Company Act; [1]                                          and sections 25(7) and 25A(17) of the Federal Reserve Act.[2]                                          The institutions' obligation to retain the records is mandatory.                

                    The records related to the FR 2064 are retained at banking organizations. However, in the event the records are obtained by the Board as part of an examination or supervision of a financial institution, this information may be considered confidential pursuant to exemption 8 of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), which protects information contained in “examination, operating, or condition reports” obtained in the bank supervisory process.[3]                                          Additionally, to the extent that such information obtained by the Board constitutes nonpublic commercial or financial information, which is both customarily and actually treated as private by the financial institution, the financial institution may request confidential treatment pursuant to exemption 4 of the FOIA.[4] 

*Current actions:*                     On February 17, 2021, the Board published an initial notice in the                     **Federal Register**                     (86 FR 9938) requesting public comment for 60 days on the extension, without revision, of the FR 2064.

The Board will adopt the extension, without revision, of the FR 2064 as originally proposed.
