Abstract: The OCC, FRB, FDIC, OTS, NCUA, and the FCA (Farm Credit Administration) are implementing the Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act (SAFE Act), which requires an employee of a bank, savings association, credit union or other depository institution and their subsidiaries regulated by a Federal banking agency or an employee of an institution regulated by FCA who acts as a residential mortgage loan originator to register with the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry and obtain a unique identifier. Agency-regulated institutions must require their employees who act as residential mortgage loan originators to comply with the SAFE Act's requirements to register and obtain a unique identifier and must adopt and follow written policies and procedures to assure compliance with these requirements.

Short Statement: The increase in burden is due to the integration of the OTS with the OCC. The additional respondents are entities formerly regulated by the OTS. The Secure and Fair Enforcement for Mortgage Licensing Act requires an employee of a bank, savings association, or credit union and their subsidiaries regulated by a Federal banking agency or an employee of an institution regulated by the FCA (Agency-regulated institutions) who engages in the business of a residential mortgage loan originator to register with the Nationwide Mortgage Licensing System and Registry (Registry) and obtain a unique identifier. The final rule implements these requirements and specifies that these Agency-regulated institutions must require their employees who act as residential mortgage loan originators to comply with the Act's requirements to register and obtain a unique identifier and must adopt and follow written policies and procedures to assure compliance with these requirements.
