Appraisal Subcommittee, was amended
by the Dodd-Frank Act to require the
ASC to maintain a national registry of
appraisal management companies
(AMCs) of those AMCs that are either:
(1) Registered with and subject to
supervision by a State that has elected
to register and supervise AMCs; or (2)
are operating subsidiaries of a Federally
regulated financial institution (Federally
regulated AMCs). Section 1117 of Title
XI,4 Establishment of State appraiser
certifying and licensing agencies, was
amended by the Dodd-Frank Act to
include additional duties for States, if
they so choose, to: (1) Register and
supervise AMCs; and (2) add
information about AMCs in their State
to the national registry of AMCs (AMC
Registry). Section 1124 of the DoddFrank Act required the federal banking
agencies, the Federal Housing Finance
Agency, and the Consumer Financial
Protection Bureau (collectively, the
Agencies) to jointly promulgate a rule
establishing minimum requirements for
the State supervision and registration of
AMCs, and to promulgate regulations
for the reporting of activities of AMCs
to the ASC.5 The Agencies’
implementing regulations provide that
each State electing to register AMCs
pursuant to Title XI must submit
information to the ASC concerning
AMCs that operate in the State,
including AMCs’ violations of law,
disciplinary and enforcement actions
against AMCs, and other relevant
information about AMCs’ operations.6
The Agencies’ implementing regulations
also provide that a Federally regulated
AMC must report to the State or States
in which it operates the reporting
requirements established by the ASC.7
This notice is being issued pursuant to
these requirements.
Description of Reporting Information
for the AMC Registry
The Dodd-Frank Act requires the ASC
to maintain the AMC Registry of those
AMCs that are either: (1) Registered
with and subject to supervision by a
State that has elected to register and
supervise AMCs; or (2) are Federally
regulated AMCs. In order for a State that
elects to register and supervise AMCs to
enter an AMC on the AMC Registry, the
following items are proposed to be
required entries by the State via extranet
application on the AMC Registry:
