Program Content:

In January, 2017, the Agencies announced the approval of a new FFIEC 051 form effective with the March, 2017 call report. For domestic banks with less than $1 billion in assets the new 051 form will reduce the number of pages in the call report from 85 to 60 and eliminate 40% of the existing line items. The frequency of data collection is also reduced for some of the schedules.

In July, 2016, the Agencies finalized the changes to the March, 2017 and September, 2016 Call Reports. The revisions include burden-reducing changes, as well as revised items, and a couple of instructional changes. The most significant change is the increase in the CD deposit threshold from $100,000 to $250,000, which will be effective with the March, 2017 Call Report.

Basel III risk-based capital changes became effective with the first call report filing in 2015. The line items related to the Capital Conservation Buffer were required for the first time in March, 2016. We'll review clarifications on the risk reporting of loan categories, deferred tax assets, equity securities, unused commitments, and interest rate locks.

The final rule not only supersedes state laws pertaining to how financial institutions process garnishments, but will also apply to state tax levies and warrants.

Covered Topics:

  • A general review of the requirements for processing garnishments and State tax levies under the final rule
  • The special terminology that applies
  • The detailed steps financial institutions need to take when processing garnishment and levy requests
  • Examples of how the rules impact garnishment and levy answers, and hold amounts
  • Model language and sample forms that can be used when providing notice pursuant to the rules

Who Should Attend?:

This webinar will be especially helpful for compliance officers, legal counsel and financial institution personnel who process garnishment answers. Please forward email to appropriate person(s).
