        The companies listed in this notice have applied to the Board for 
    approval, pursuant to the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956 (12 U.S.C. 
    1841 et seq.) (BHC Act), Regulation Y (12 CFR part 225), and all other 
    applicable statutes and regulations to become a bank holding company 
    and/or to acquire the assets or the ownership of, control of, or the 
    power to vote shares of a bank or bank holding company and all of the 
    banks and nonbanking companies owned by the bank holding company, 
    including the companies listed below.
        The applications listed below, as well as other related filings

    writing on the standards enumerated in the BHC Act (12 U.S.C. 1842(c)). 
    If the proposal also involves the acquisition of a nonbanking company, 
    the review also includes whether the acquisition of the nonbanking 
    company complies with the standards in section 4 of the BHC Act, 
    including whether the acquisition of the nonbanking company can 
    ``reasonably be expected to produce benefits to the public, such as 
    greater convenience, increased competition, or gains in efficiency, 
    that outweigh possible adverse effects, such as undue concentration of 
    resources, decreased or unfair competition, conflicts of interests, or 
    unsound banking practices'' (12 U.S.C.      1843). Any request for a 
    hearing must be accompanied by a statement of the reasons a written 
    presentation would not suffice in lieu of a hearing, identifying 
    specifically any questions of fact that are in dispute, summarizing the 
    evidence that would be presented at a hearing, and indicating how the 
    party commenting would be aggrieved by approval of the proposal. Unless 
    otherwise noted, nonbanking activities will be conducted throughout the 
    United States.
        Unless otherwise noted, comments regarding each of these 
    applications must be received at the Reserve Bank indicated or the 
    offices of the Board of Governors not later than June 10, 1996.
