OCC Rules Regarding the Availability of OCC Information

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) proposes changes to its rules on information disclosure, clarifying the process for obtaining OCC approval to disclose non-public OCC information (NPOI). The proposal would permit supervised entities to disclose confidential supervisory information (CSI) without OCC approval in six specific situations, provided applicable safeguards are observed, and clarifies when CSI can be shared with Federal agencies. It also refines the OCC’s process for requesting records under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA), adds expedited processing procedures for FOIA requests, and removes the reference to criminal penalties in current Part 4. These changes apply to national banks, Federal savings associations, and Federal branches and agencies of foreign banks.
