Proposal Under OMB Delegated Authority To Extend for Three Years, Without Revision, the Following Information Collection Report title: Survey of Consumer Finances.
Agency form number: FR 3059.
OMB control number: 71000287.
Frequency: Triennial.
Respondents: U.S. families.
Estimated number of respondents:
Pretest, 150; Main survey, 7,000.
Estimated average hours per response:
Pretest, 100 minutes; Main survey, 100
minutes.
Estimated annual burden hours:
Pretest, 250 hours; Main survey, 11,667
hours.
General description of report: This triennial survey is the only source of representative information on the structure of U.S. families finances. The survey would collect data on the assets, debts, income, work history, pension rights, use of financial services, and attitudes of a sample of U.S. families.
Because the ownership of some assets is relatively concentrated in a small number of families, the survey would make a special effort to ensure proper representation of such assets by systematically oversampling wealthier families.
Legal authorization and confidentiality: Section 2A of the Federal Reserve Act FRA requires that the Board and the Federal Open Market Committee FOMC maintain long run growth of the monetary and credit aggregates commensurate with the economys long run potential to increase production, so as to promote effectively the goals of maximum employment, stable prices, and moderate long-term interest rates.1 In addition, under section 12A of the FRA, the FOMC is required to implement regulations relating to the open market operations conducted by Federal Reserve Banks with a view to accommodating commerce and business and with regard to their bearing upon the general credit situation of the country. 2 The Board and the FOMC use the information obtained from the FR 3059 to help fulfill these obligations. The FR 3059 is a voluntary survey.
Consultation outside the agency: The final survey questionnaire would be developed jointly by the Board and the contractor. The contractor would conduct the computer based interviews for this survey. The data to support the part of the survey sample selected by the Board would be provided by the 1 12

Statistics of Income Division SOI of the Internal Revenue Service under a contract that allows this use of the data as well as other more limited uses of the data for statistical adjustments to the final data and related purposes. As in past surveys, the sample selection and survey administration would be managed so that the Board would not be given any names of survey participants;
SOI would not be given data to link survey responses with tax records; and the contractor would not be given income data derived from the tax returns.
It is expected that the data collected would be published in summary form in the Federal Reserve Bulletin in 2023. A
version of the microdata, which would be altered to protect the identity of individual respondents, would be made available to the public through the Boards public website. None of the pretest data would be released to the public. The information collected on the FR 3059 that identifies the individual respondents may be exempt from disclosure under exemption 6 of the Freedom of Information Act, which protects information the disclosure of which would constitute a clearly unwarranted invasion of personal privacy.3
