Abstract: This regulatory action revises and consolidates the FDIC's

three different groups of rules and regulations governing international

banking. The first group governs insured branches of foreign banks and

specifies what deposit-taking activities are permissible for uninsured

state-licensed branches of foreign banks. The second group governs the

foreign branches of insured state nonmember banks, and also governs

such banks' investment in foreign banks or other financial entities.

The third group governs the international lending of insured state

nonmember banks and specifies when reserves are required for particular

international assets. This action is the result of a CDRI section

303(a) review.
