Authority To Approve Federal Home Loan Bank Bylaws

Resumen

The Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) is adding a new provision to its regulation on Federal Home Loan Bank (FHLBank) operations to devolve responsibility for approving FHLBank bylaws or amendments thereto, subject to certain conditions, from the Finance Board to the boards of directors of the FHLBanks. The rule is part of the Finance Board's continuing effort to devolve management and governance responsibilities to the FHLBanks and is consistent with the goals of the Regulatory Reinvention Initiative of the National Performance Review.
