Regulation O Policy Update

Product Update Notification - 02/06/07

Regulation O Policy Template Update

Bankpolicies.com is proud to announce the immediate availability of our revised Regulation O Policy Template product.

The revision to this product is in response to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) Financial institution Letter (FIL) dated December 18, 2006 that announced that Section 601 of the Financial Services Regulatory Relief Act of 2006 (Relief Act) removed several statutory reporting requirements relating to insider lending by insured banks and savings associations.

In addition, the FDIC also released on January 26, 2007 a FIL that the Relief Act also repealed FDIC Part 349, Reports and Public Disclosure of Indebtedness of Executive Officers and Principal Shareholders to a State Nonmember Bank and its Correspondent Banks.
