This
notice announces changes to the
maximum amount of each civil money
penalty (CMP) within the Federal
Deposit Insurance Corporation’s (FDIC)
jurisdiction to administer to account for
inflation under the Federal Civil
Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of
1990 (1990 Adjustment Act),1 as
amended by the Federal Civil Penalties
Inflation Adjustment Act Improvements
Act of 2015 (2015 Adjustment Act).2
Under the 1990 Adjustment Act, as
amended, federal agencies must make
annual adjustments to the maximum
amount of each CMP the agency
administers. The Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) is required to issue
guidance to federal agencies no later
than December 15 of each year
providing an inflation-adjustment
multiplier (i.e., the inflation-adjustment
factor agencies must use) applicable to
CMPs assessed in the following year.
Agencies are required to publish their
CMPs, adjusted under the multiplier
provided by the OMB, by January 15 of
the applicable year. Agencies, like the
FDIC, that have codified the statutory
formula for making the CMP
adjustments may make annual inflation

adjustments by providing notice in the
Federal Register.3
On December 16, 2019, the OMB
issued guidance to affected agencies on
implementing the required annual
adjustment, which guidance included
the relevant inflation multiplier.4 The
FDIC has applied that multiplier to the
maximum CMPs allowable in 2019 for
FDIC-supervised institutions to
calculate the maximum amount of CMPs
that may be assessed by the FDIC in
2020.5 There were no new statutory
CMPs administered by the FDIC during
2019.
The following charts provide the
inflation-adjusted maximum CMP
amounts for use after January 15, 2020—
the effective date of the 2020 annual
adjustments—under 12 CFR part 308,
for conduct occurring on or after
November 2, 2015:

maximum amounts set forth in the FDIC’s
regulations in effect prior to the enactment of the
2015 Adjustment Act.

On December 16, 2019, the OMB issued guidance to affected agencies
on implementing the required annual adjustment, which guidance included
the relevant inflation multiplier.\4\ The FDIC has applied that
multiplier to the maximum CMPs allowable in 2019 for FDIC-supervised
institutions to calculate the maximum amount of CMPs that may be
assessed by the FDIC in 2020.\5\ There were no new statutory CMPs
administered by the FDIC during 2019.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
