Activities or to Acquire Companies that are Engaged in Permissible
Nonbanking Activities
The companies listed in this notice have given notice under section
4 of the Bank Holding Company Act (12 U.S.C. 1843) (BHC Act) and
Regulation Y, (12 CFR Part 225) to engage de novo, or to acquire or
control voting securities or assets of a company that engages either
directly or through a subsidiary or other company, in a nonbanking
activity that is listed in Sec. 225.25 of Regulation Y (12 CFR 225.25)
or that the Board has determined by Order to be closely related to
banking and permissible for bank holding companies. Unless otherwise
noted, these activities will be conducted throughout the United States.
Each notice is available for inspection at the Federal Reserve Bank

[[Page 41789]]
processing, it will also be available for inspection at the offices of
the Board of Governors. Interested persons may express their views in
writing on the question whether the proposal complies with the
standards of section 4 of the BHC Act, including whether consummation
of the proposal 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 on this question 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, comments regarding the applications must be
received at the Reserve Bank indicated or the offices of the Board of
Governors not later than August 26, 1996.
