Complex Structured Finance Activities Interagency Statement on Sound Practices for Activities With Elevated Risk

Lending / Investments
May 16, 2006


Summary: The 多宝游戏下载, along with the other federal banking agencies and the Securities and Exchange Commission, is issuing the attached statement for public comment. The statement informs financial institutions of the internal controls and risk-management procedures that should be used to identify, manage and address the heightened legal or reputational risks that may arise from their involvement in certain complex structured finance transactions. The 多宝游戏下载 will accept comments on this statement through June 15, 2006.

Highlights:

The attached interagency statement:

  • Focuses on complex structured finance transactions entered into by institutions when the transactions

    • circumvent regulatory or financial reporting requirements or

    • evade tax liabilities or involve other illegal and/or improper behavior

    and, therefore, warrant enhanced review due to the potential legal and reputational risks that
    arise.

  • Illustrates the types of complex structured finance transactions that warrant increased review by the institution's senior management and board of directors.

  • Describes the types of internal controls and risk-management procedures that the agencies believe should enable a financial institution to identify, monitor and control the heightened legal and reputational risk associated with various types of complex structured finance transactions.

  • Applies primarily to large financial institutions. The statement generally does not apply to smaller institutions or to traditional structured finance transactions, such as securitizations and most types of derivative transactions.
