Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation March 25, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is correcting a final rule that appeared in the Federal Register of March 18, 2010 (75 FR 12962). The final rule added a new provision in order to continue for a limited time the safe harbor provision for securitizations that would be affected by recent changes to generally accepted accounting principles. In effect, the Final Rule permanently ``grandfathers'' all securitizations for which financial assets were transferred or, for revolving trusts, for which securities were issued prior to September 30, 2010 so long as those securitizations complied with the preexisting requirements under generally accepted accounting principles in effect prior to November 15, 2009.
