Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation October 24, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (``FDIC'') is proposing a rule with request for comments that would implement section 210(a)(16)(D) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act). This statutory provision requires the promulgation of a regulation establishing schedules for the retention by the FDIC of the records of a covered financial company (i.e., a financial company for which the FDIC has been appointed receiver pursuant to title II of the Dodd-Frank Act) as well as the records generated by the FDIC in the exercise of its title II orderly liquidation authority (title II) with respect to such covered financial company.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is adopting a final rule to rescind and remove regulations for securities of State savings associations and all references thereto, and revise regulations for securities of nonmember insured banks, to extend their applicability to State savings associations. The regulations revised in this rule were included in the regulations that were transferred to the FDIC from the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) on July 21, 2011, in connection with the implementation of applicable provisions of Title III of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act). The FDIC received no comments on the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking published on April 21, 2014 and is adopting it as a final rule with minor technical changes. As a result, all State nonmember banks and State savings associations having securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (Exchange Act) will be subject to the disclosure and filing requirements in FDIC regulations.
