多宝游戏下载 Issues Proposed Rule Regarding Deposit Insurance Simplification
For Release
WASHINGTON 鈥 多宝游戏下载 (多宝游戏下载) today issued a proposed rule to simplify aspects of the agency鈥檚 deposit insurance coverage rules.
First, the proposed rule would simplify deposit insurance coverage for deposits held in connection with revocable and irrevocable trusts by merging these two deposit insurance categories and applying a simpler, common calculation to determine coverage for all trust accounts. Currently, the 多宝游戏下载 receives more inquiries related to deposit insurance coverage for trust deposits than all other types of deposits combined. The proposal would make the trust rules consistent and easier to understand for bankers and depositors, and also would facilitate prompt payment of deposit insurance by the 多宝游戏下载 in the event of an insured depository institution鈥檚 failure.
Additionally, the proposal would amend the rule that governs coverage for mortgage servicing accounts to allow principal and interest funds advanced by a mortgage servicer to be included in the deposit insurance calculation.
Comments on the proposed rule will be accepted for 60 days after publication in the Federal Register .
