The OCC is soliciting comment concerning the renewal of its
information collection titled ``Disclosure Requirements Associated with
Supplementary Leverage Ratio.''

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal
agencies must obtain approval from the OMB for each collection of
information that they conduct or sponsor. ``Collection of information''
is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c) to include agency
requests or requirements that members of the public submit reports,
keep records, or provide information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of title 44 requires federal agencies to provide a 60-day
notice in the Federal Register concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each proposed renewal of an existing collection
of information, before submitting the collection to OMB for approval.
To comply with this requirement, the OCC is publishing notice of the
renewal of the collection of information set forth in this document.
The OCC is proposing to extend OMB approval of the following
information collection:
Title: Disclosure Requirements Associated with Supplementary
Leverage Ratio.

agencies' advanced approaches risk-based capital rules (advanced
approaches banking organizations), as defined in the 2013 revised

[[Page 25917]]
supplementary leverage ratios on the applicable regulatory reports.
These disclosures enhance the transparency and consistency of reporting
requirements for the supplementary leverage ratio by all
internationally active organizations.

collection burden;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
