Federal Home Loan Bank Boards of Directors: Eligibility and Elections

Resumo

The Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) is proposing to amend its regulations relating to the process by which successor directors are chosen after a Federal Home Loan Bank (Bank) directorship is redesignated to a new state prior to the end of its term as a result of the annual designation of Bank directorships. The current rules deem the redesignation to create a vacancy on the board, which is filled by the remaining directors. The proposed amendment would deem the redesignation to cause the original directorship to terminate and a new directorship to be created, which would then be filled by an election of the members.
