Sincerely yours, Federal Register / Vol. 51, No. 73 / Wednesday, April 16, 1986 / Proposed Rules Extension of Time To Comment on Proposed Rulemaking. ACTION: On January 24,1986, the Board announced a proposed modification of its Guidelines for minimum and appropriate levels of capital for bank holding companies and state chartered banks that are members of the Federal Reserve System. [51FR 3976 (January 31,1986)] This proposed amendment to the Board’s Guidelines, contained in Appendix A to the Board’s Regulation Y, 12 CFR Part 225, was designed to make the Board’s capital policies more systematically and explicitly sensitive to the risk exposure of individual banking organizations by providing for an additional supplemental adjusted capital measure to be considered by the Board in conjunction with existing primary and total capital-to-total assets ratios already contained in the Guidelines. The Board indicated that it would consider comments on this proposal received by April 25,1986. Since publication of the Board’s supplemental adjusted capital proposal, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency have published for comment proposals for similar capital measures to be applied to state chartered banks that are not members of the Federal Reserve System and to national banks, respectively. Because of the significance of these proposals for the banking system and the important issues they raise, the Board is extending the comment period for its supplemental adjusted capital proposal (Docket R-0567) until May 23, 1986. The Board believes such an extension of the comment period will allow it to receive additional and more complete responses to its proposal. DATE: All comments should be received by May 23,1986. ADDRESS: All comments, which should refer to Docket No. R-0567, should be mailed to William W. Wiles, Secretary, Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, 20th and Constitution Ave., NW., Washington, DC 20551, or should be delivered to the courtyard entrance, Gccles Building, 20th Street, NW., between “C” Street and Constitution Avenue, NW., between the hours of 8:45 a.m. and 5:15 p.m. weekdays.
