General Description of Collection: This collection includes reporting, recordkeeping and disclosure requirements associated with the FDIC's TLGP. The TLGP is comprised of (1) a guarantee by the FDIC of unsecured, unsubordinated debt of participating, insured, depository institutions, their bank holding companies, financial holding companies, and thrift holding companies (other than unitary thrift holding companies) issued between October 14, 2008, and October 31, 2009, with guarantees expiring on the earlier of the date of maturity or December 31, 2012, and with a system of fees to be paid by these institutions for such guarantees; and (2) a 100 percent guaranty of non-interest bearing, transaction accounts held by insured depository institutions until December 31, 2009 (FDIC guarantees). The TLGP is designed to strengthen confidence and encourage liquidity in the banking system in order to ease lending to creditworthy businesses and consumers. The reporting, recordkeeping and disclosure requirements apply to eligible entities participating in either the Debt Guarantee Component of the program or the Deposit Guarantee Component or both. The information obtained allows the FDIC to monitor its exposure under the TLGP and determine assessments for entities participating in the program. The required disclosures ensure that depositors, debt holders, and the general public are on notice as to which entities are participating in the program, the extent to which deposits in noninterest-bearing transaction accounts are FDIC-insured, and whether newly-issued, senior, unsecured debt is guaranteed by the FDIC.
