Abstract:
This information collection is a two-stage survey of finance and mortgage companies. The first stage is a simple questionnaire (FR 3033p) that is sent to all known domestic finance and mortgage companies and that asks for information about each company's total net assets, areas of specialization, and other characteristics. From the questionnaire respondents, the Federal Reserve draws a stratified random sample of finance and mortgage companies for the second stage, the survey itself (FR 3033s). The survey requests detailed information from both sides of the respondents' balance sheets. The Federal Reserve Board initiates data collection and analysis, and staff at the Federal Reserve Banks follow up on data quality issues, collect data from late FR 3033s, and resolve other outstanding questions.

Short Statement:
This information collection includes both the Census of Finance Companies (FR 3033p) and the Survey of Finance Companies (FR 3033s). The first stage of the quinquennial, the FR 3033p was implemented in April 2010. The FR 3033p was sent to all companies that met the criteria developed to identify the potential universe of domestic finance companies. From the universe of finance companies as determined by the FR 3033p, a stratified random sample of 3,000 finance companies would be drawn for the FR 3033s. The survey would collect detailed information, as of December 31, 2010, from both sides of the respondents' balance sheets, as well as companiesÂ’ geographic scope of operations and servicing activities.
