FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION

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 October 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.

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.

105 Stat 2236

CFR Citation: 12 CFR 325

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: The interagency 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. This rulemaking and the rulemaking on residual interests (see
3064-AC34) are interrelated in that both address the regulatory capital
treatment for residual interests in securitizations and other financial
asset transfers. The agencies participating in these two rulemakings
are ensuring that the treatment of residual interests will be
consistent and may issue a single combined final rule rather than
separate final rules.

Legal Deadline: Final, Statutory, May 12, 2001, recordkeeping

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).

FDIC and OTS (the Agencies), and amends their respective risk-based
capital standards for banks, bank holding companies, and savings
associations with regard to the risk-weighting of claims on, and claims
guaranteed by, qualifying securities firms. The rule reduces the risk
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.

CFR Citation: 12 CFR 325

Legal Deadline: None

Abstract: This interagency rulemaking amends capital rules to restrict
excessive concentrations in residual interests by limiting the amount
that are included in Tier 1 capital for both leverage and risk-based
capital purposes. Residual interests in excess of this limitation would
be deducted from Tier 1 capital. The rulemaking also requires that
risk-based capital be held in an amount equal to the amount of residual
interests that are within this limitation. This rulemaking and the
rulemaking on recourse and direct credit substitutes (see 3064-AB31)
are interrelated in that both address the regulatory capital treatment
for residual interests in securitizations and other financial asset
transfers. The agencies participating in these two rulemakings are
ensuring that the treatment of residual interests will be consistent
and may issue a single combined final rule rather than separate final
rules.
