The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is
amending its regulation governing lending limits for national banks to
consolidate the lending limit rules applicable to national banks and
savings associations and remove its separate regulation governing
lending limits for savings associations. The OCC also is amending its
rules to implement section 610 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act, which amends the statutory definition of
``loans and extensions of credit'' to include credit exposures arising
from derivative transactions, repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase
agreements, securities lending transactions and securities borrowing
transactions. Pursuant to the OCC's authority in section 5200(d) of the
Revised Statutes, the OCC is amending the lending limit rules to
provide a temporary exception for the transactions covered by section
610 until January 1, 2013, in order to allow institutions a sufficient
period to make adjustments to assure compliance with the new
requirements.
