12 CFR Ch. III

Semiannual Agenda of Regulations

AGENCY: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

ACTION: Semiannual regulatory agenda.

_______________________________________________________________________

SUMMARY: The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is hereby

publishing items for the April 2001 Unified Agenda of Regulatory and

Deregulatory Actions. The agenda contains information about FDIC's

current and projected rulemakings, existing regulations under review,

and completed rulemakings.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Persons identified under regulations

listed in the agenda. Unless otherwise noted, the address for all FDIC

staff identified in the agenda is Federal Deposit Insurance

Corporation, 550 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20429.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Twice each year, the FDIC publishes an

agenda of regulations to inform the public of its regulatory actions

and to enhance public participation in the rulemaking process.

Publication of the agenda is in accordance with the Regulatory

Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq.). The FDIC amends its regulations

under the general rulemaking authority prescribed in section 9 of the

Federal Deposit Insurance Act (12 U.S.C. 1819) and under specific

authority granted by the Act and other statutes.

A number of the actions identified in this agenda have been

developed to implement provision of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, or

to implement other recent statutory mandates. Many of the FDIC's

regulatory actions are coordinated with other Federal regulators of

financial institutions, primarily the Office of the Comptroller of

the Currency (OCC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve

System (FRS), and the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS). In some

cases, the FDIC also coordinates with the National Credit Union

Administration (NCUA).

Interested persons may petition the FDIC for the issuance,

amendment, or repeal of any regulation by submitting a written

petition to the Executive Secretary, Federal Deposit Insurance

Corporation, Washington, DC 20429. Petitioners should include

complete and concise statements of their interest in the subject

matter and reasons why the petitions should be granted.

Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Robert E. Feldman,

Executive Secretary.

4251. ASSESSMENTS -- ASSESSMENT BASE

Priority: Substantive, Nonsignificant

Legal Authority: 12 USC 1441; 12 USC 1817 to 1819

CFR Citation: 12 CFR 327

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: In 1994, the FDIC sought comment on a proposal to revise the
assessment base used by insured institutions to determine the premium
paid for deposit insurance. That initiative did not lead to a proposed
rule. Instead, the FDIC plans to revisit the issue with a new ANPRM on
alternative options for the deposit component of the assessment base
and on options regarding the float deduction and use of average daily
deposit balances.

developing a regulatory capital framework tailored to the size,

regulatory capital frameworks that may ease burden on these financial
institutions, such as a simplified risk-based or a modified leverage
ratio framework.

105 Stat 2236

CFR Citation: 12 CFR 325

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This rulemaking is sponsored jointly by the OCC, the FRS, the
FDIC, and the OTS. The rulemaking revises risk-based capital standards
by addressing the regulatory capital treatment of recourse obligations
and direct credit substitutes that expose banks, bank holding
companies, and thrifts to credit risk. The revision treats recourse
obligations and direct credit substitutes more consistently than under
the agencies' current risk-based capital standards. In addition, the
revision allows the agencies to use credit ratings and certain
alternative approaches to match the risk-based capital requirement more
closely to a banking organization's relative risk of loss in asset
securitizations. The rulemaking also requires the sponsor of a
revolving credit securitization that involves an early amortization
feature to hold capital against the amount of assets under management,
i.e., the off balance sheet securitized receivables. The rulemaking is
intended to result in more consistent treatment of recourse obligations
and similar transactions among the agencies, more consistent risk-based
capital treatment for certain types of transactions involving similar
risk, and capital requirements that more closely reflect a banking
organization's relative exposure to credit risk.

Abstract: This rule was developed in consultation with the OCC, the
FRS, and the OTS (Agencies). It amends FDIC's risk-based capital
standards to make the standards uniform with the Agencies' treatments
for transactions supported by collateral. The effect of the proposal is
to allow banks to hold less capital for certain transactions
collateralized by cash or qualifying securities.

Abstract: This proposal, sponsored jointly by the OCC, the FRS, and the
FDIC, would establish qualifications for banks that sell certain
securities to their customers without having to register as a broker
under the Securities Exchange Act. FDIC staff are contemplating a
recommendation to rescind this proposal and replace it with a second
NPRM to exempt banks from registering with the NASD/SEC as securities
brokers or dealers in the event that they qualify under any of the
exemption criteria in Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act sections 201 or 202 (see
NPRM described at 3064-AC42).

weight applied to claims on, and claims guaranteed by, qualifying
securities firms incorporated in countries that are members of the
Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) from 100
percent to 20 percent under the Agencies' risk-based capital rules.

Abstract: This rulemaking sponsored jointly by the OCC, the FRS and the

applied to their domestic and foreign competitors.

Legal Deadline: Final, Statutory, March 11, 2000.

Abstract: This rulemaking amends the FDIC's regulations governing
activities and investments of insured state banks to require that
notices be filed before insured state nonmember banks conduct
activities through a subsidiary if those activities must be conducted
in a financial subsidiary of a national bank. This subpart allows the
FDIC to impose standards and prudential safeguards when insured state
nonmember banks engage in activities that a national bank must conduct
in a financial subsidiary. It also requires insured state nonmember
banks to meet the mandatory CRA compliance requirement before engaging
in these activities under this subpart. In addition, this subpart
contains the required prudential separations between certain securities
affiliates and insured state nonmember banks. The rulemaking also
removes and reserves the provisions addressing, ``Securities Activities
of Subsidiaries of Insured State Banks: Bank Transactions with
Affiliated Securities Companies.'' The effect of these amendments will
be to require banks to notify the FDIC prior to conducting securities
or other activities through subsidiaries that are not permissible for
national banks directly. The rulemaking also adds certain technical
amendments to correct missing citations or incorrect cross-references
and similar matters.

Abstract: As part of the Financial Regulatory Relief and Economic
Efficiency Act of 2000, Congress repealed section 29A of the FDIC Act.
Section 29A imposed certain requirements on deposit brokers and
authorized the FDIC to issue implementing regulations. The FDIC
rescinds the regulations issued to implement the now-repealed section
29A of the FDIC Act. As a result of Congress' repeal of section 29A and
the FDIC's rescission of the implementing regulations, deposit brokers
are no longer required to notify the FDIC that they are acting as
deposit brokers. Also, deposit brokers are no longer required to
maintain records as to the amounts and maturities of deposits placed by
the broker at each insured depository institution.
