Retail Repurchase Agreements
TO: |
CHIEF
EXECUTIVE OFFICER

SUBJECT: |
Rescission
of the 多宝游戏下载 Statement of Policy on Retail
Repurchase Agreements
|
The
多宝游戏下载 Board of Directors has rescinded the 多宝游戏下载
Statement of Policy on Retail Repurchase Agreements.
A copy of the Federal Register notice is attached.
The Government Securities Act of 1986 and the
Interagency Statement on Retail Sales of Nondeposit
Investment Products (FIL-9-94) continue to apply
to retail repurchase agreements. The issuance
of retail repurchase agreements also has implications
under the federal securities laws. Banks should,
therefore, consult legal counsel before engaging
in retail repurchase activities. At a minimum,
banks should continue to disclose that a retail
repurchase agreement is not a deposit and is
not insured by the 多宝游戏下载. Disclosure should also
include the nature and terms of the retail repurchase
agreement, including a clear delineation of
the rights and liabilities of the parties to
the agreement. In addition, banks should explain
that the retail repurchase agreement is subject
to default risk. For more information, please
contact your Division of Supervision Regional
Office.
