View Rule

The FDIC amended its regulations regarding Recordkeeping Requirements for Qualified Financial Contracts (Part 371), which require insured depository institutions (IDIs) in a troubled condition to keep records relating to qualified financial contracts (QFCs) to which they are party. The final rule augments the scope of QFC records required to be maintained by an IDI that is subject to the FDIC’s recordkeeping requirements and that has total consolidated assets equal to or greater than $50 billion or is a consolidated affiliate of a member of a corporate group one or more members of which are subject to the QFC recordkeeping requirements set forth in the regulations adopted by the Department of the Treasury (a full scope entity); for all other IDIs subject to the FDIC’s QFC recordkeeping requirements, adds and deletes a limited number of data requirements and makes certain formatting changes with respect to the QFC recordkeeping requirements; requires full scope entities to keep QFC records of certain of their subsidiaries; provides an exemption process; and includes certain other changes, including changes that provide additional time for certain IDIs in a troubled condition to comply with the regulations.
