Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Associated with Regulation W

The Board’s Regulation W - Transactions Between Member Banks and Their Affiliates (12 CFR Part 223), implements sections 23A and 23B of the Federal Reserve Act (FRA) by defining terms used in the statute, explaining the statute’s requirements, and exempting certain transactions from certain restrictions on transactions between member banks and their affiliates. The reporting and recordkeeping requirements of FR W are triggered by specific events. FR W filings are required from insured depository institutions and uninsured member banks (collectively, depository institutions) that seek to request certain exemptions from the requirements of sections 23A and 23B. The FR W is separate from the quarterly Holding Company Report of Insured Depository Institutions’ Section 23A Transactions with Affiliates (FR Y-8; OMB No. 7100-0126), which collects information on transactions between an insured depository institution and its affiliates that are subject to section 23A of the FRA.
