Washington – In a move that could have far-reaching implications for the financial industry, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has extended the comment period on its proposed changes to brokered deposit regulations.
The FDIC announced the extension in a statement, citing the need to provide additional time for the public to prepare comments on the proposed rulemaking. The comment period, which was originally set to close on October 22, 2024, has been extended to November 21, 2024.
The proposed changes aim to strengthen prudential protections in the agency’s safety and soundness rule on brokered deposits, which implements Section 29 of the Federal Deposit Insurance Act. The rule, which is subject to public comment, has the potential to significantly impact the financial industry, particularly banks and other financial institutions that engage in brokered deposit activities.
The extension of the comment period is seen as a positive move by industry insiders, who argue that it will give stakeholders a better opportunity to weigh in on the proposed changes. ‘This is a critical issue for the financial industry, and extending the comment period will allow stakeholders to provide more thoughtful and well-informed comments,’ said one industry expert.
For its part, the FDIC has emphasized that the extension is intended to provide additional opportunity for the public to prepare comments, rather than to delay the rulemaking process. ‘We are committed to ensuring that the public has a meaningful opportunity to participate in the rulemaking process,’ said an FDIC spokesperson.
As the comment period comes to a close, the public is now invited to submit feedback on the proposed changes. The FDIC will review all comments received and use them to inform its final decision on the rulemaking. In the meantime, stakeholders are advised to keep a close eye on the FDIC’s website for updates on the rulemaking process.
In related news, the FDIC has also announced that public comments on the proposal are due by November 21, 2024. The agency encourages the public to submit comments through its website, and has provided a link to the online comment portal.
