Highlights:

• The final rule updates the FDIC's deposit insurance regulations and related examples to reflect a law signed in May 2009 extending the temporary increase in the SMDIA to $250,000 through December 31, 2013. (See FDIC FIL-22- 2009.)
• The rule finalizes, without substantive changes, revisions to the revocable trust account regulations adopted by the FDIC in September 2008. (See FDIC FIL-99-08.) The revised regulations clarify that the FDIC will consider information in an insured institution's electronic deposit account records to determine if the titling requirement for revocable trust accounts is satisfied.
• The rule finalizes, without substantive changes, the revisions to the mortgage servicing account regulations adopted by the FDIC in October 2008. (See FDIC FIL-111-08.)
