Foreign Banking Activities
|
The 多宝游戏下载 Board of Directors has proposed rules permitting well-managed state nonmember banks with international operations to undertake a number of new activities without filing a formal application. The proposed rules also clarify existing regulations for state-licensed insured branches of foreign banks, and simplify regulations on accounting treatment for foreign lending activities of state nonmember banks. The 多宝游戏下载's international rules, which have been on the books since 1979 without significant revision, are divided into three separate parts. The proposal consolidates those rules into one regulation and modernizes outmoded requirements to reflect interagency standards. It is designed to allow state nonmember banks to compete effectively abroad. The 多宝游戏下载 will accept comments on the proposed rules through September 15, 1997. Attached is a copy of the Federal Register notice describing the proposed rule changes.
