Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation February 5, 2019 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In order to streamline FDIC regulations and reduce regulatory burden, the FDIC proposes to rescind and remove from the Code of Federal Regulations rules entitled ``Lending and Investment'' (part 390, subpart P) that were transferred to the FDIC from the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) on July 21, 2011, in connection with the implementation of Title III of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act); amend certain sections of existing FDIC regulations governing real estate lending standards to make it clear that such rules apply to all insured depository institutions for which the FDIC is the appropriate Federal banking agency; and amend part 365 by rescinding in its entirety the subpart concerning registration requirements for residential mortgage loan originators because supervision and rulemaking authority in this area was transferred to the Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection (Bureau) by the Dodd-Frank Act.
