Foreign Banks.
Form Number: FFIEC 019.
OMB Number: 7100–0213.

Affected Public: U.S. branches and
agencies of foreign banks.
Estimated Number of Respondents:

Estimated Average Time per
Response: 10 hours.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:

General Description of Reports
This information collection is
mandatory: 12 U.S.C. 3906 for all
agencies; 12 U.S.C. 3105 and 3108 for
the Board; sections 7 and 10 of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12

Abstract
All individual U.S. branches and
agencies of foreign banks that have more

residents of foreign countries must file
the FFIEC 019 report quarterly.
Currently, all respondents report
adjusted exposure amounts to the five
largest countries having at least $20
million in total adjusted exposure. The
agencies collect this data to monitor the
extent to which such branches and
agencies are pursuing prudent country
risk diversification policies and limiting
potential liquidity pressures. No
changes are proposed to the FFIEC 019
reporting form or instructions.
