FDIC's Proposed Brokered Deposits Rule: Eight Things to Know

On December 12, 2019, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") proposed significant changes to its regulatory framework for brokered deposits for insured depository institutions ("IDIs"). The Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (the "NPR"), which follows the FDIC's December 2018 Advanced Notice of Proposed Rulemaking, would modernize key aspects of the brokered deposit framework to reflect technological and industry changes that have occurred since the brokered framework was introduced by statute in 1989. Comments must be submitted to the FDIC within 60 days after the NPR is published in the Federal Register.
