on depository institutions credit exposure to individual correspondents in order to mitigate the risk that the failure of a correspondent would pose to an insured depository institution.1
Section 206.3 of Regulation F 12 CFR
206.3 requires insured depository institutions to establish and maintain policies and procedures designed to prevent excessive exposure to correspondents. This regulation applies to all depository institutions insured by the FDIC.
Legal authorization and confidentiality: The Regulation F
recordkeeping requirements are authorized by section 23 of the Federal Reserve Act, as added by section 308 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Improvement Act of 1991,2
which requires the Board to prescribe standards to limit risks posed by exposure of insured depository institutions to other depository institutions. The Regulation F
recordkeeping requirements are mandatory.
The Board does not collect any information under Regulation F, so no issue of confidentially normally arises.
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 FOIA.4
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, January 28, 2021.
Michele Taylor Fennell, Deputy Associate Secretary of the Board.
