l l★K Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas DALLAS, TEXAS 75265-5906 April 6, 2001 Notice 01-30 TO: The Chief Executive Officer of each financial institution and others concerned in the Eleventh Federal Reserve District SUBJECT Effective Date on Bank Insurance Rules Extended DETAILS The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of Thrift Supervision extended the effective date of consumer protection rules for the sale of insurance products by depository institutions. The new effective date will be October 1, 2001, rather than the original date of April 1, 2001. The rules, which implement section 305 of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, were jointly published on December 4, 2000 (this Bank’s Notice 00-81). After issuing the final rules, the banking agencies found that a significant number of institutions required additional time to fully implement the requirements of the regulation. The extension will allow more time to change systems, alter forms, gain state regulatory approvals, and train personnel.
