Funding and Fiscal Affairs, Loan Policies and Operations, and Funding Operations; FCB Assistance to Associations

Краткое содержание

The Farm Credit Administration (FCA or Agency), is proposing to repeal a regulatory requirement that a Farm Credit Bank or an agricultural credit bank (collectively referred to as a bank) obtain FCA prior approval before giving financial assistance to an affiliated association. Instead, the proposed rule would require a bank to consider various standards before providing financial assistance and notify both the FCA and bank shareholders. We expect this rule change to reduce regulatory burden on banks.
