Those interested in airing their views on federal banking regulators’ work considering what regulations might be deemed “outdated” or otherwise “unnecessary” can do so during an Oct. 30 outreach meeting in Kansas City, Mo., the agencies said.
The agencies’ release Tuesday shows the meeting will be held jointly by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. (FDIC), Federal Reserve Board, and Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). The aim, they said, is to allow interested stakeholders to present their views on the regulatory categories listed in any of the four Federal Register notices issued as part of regulators’ once-every-10-years review under the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act (EGRPRA). The notices addressed the following categories:
- applications and reporting; powers and activities; international operations (issued May 2024)
- consumer protection; directors, officers and employees; money laundering (issued October 2024)
- rules of procedure; safety and soundness; securities (issued March 2025)
- banking operations; capital; the Community Reinvestment Act (issued in July, with comments due Oct. 23)
The meeting, slated 8:45 a.m. to noon central time, will be open to participants in person and online. Prospective speakers and in-person attendees must register in advance, by Oct. 22. A link for those participating virtually only and not providing comments will be available on an outreach page.
