FDIC Clarifies Public Funds Rule
HE board of Directors of the
Federal Deposit Insurance Cor­
poration has announced that it has
acted to provide a phase-in period
for a new FDIC Legal Division staff
interpretation regarding separate
deposit insurance coverage for de­
posits made by multiple custodians
of public units who do not qualify as
“ offical custodians” of those funds.
The interpretation replaces an earli­
er 1979 staff opinion that reached an
opposite conclusion. Both interpre­
tations were issued in response to in­
quiries from the Colorado State
Treasurer.
The Board’s action gave public of­
ficials, including those in the State
of Colorado where the issue arose,
ample time to take appropriate
steps to ensure adequate protection
of public funds in light of the revised
interpretation of the FD IC’s insur­
ance regulation.
On March 19, 1985,an FDIC legal
opinion rescinded an opinion issued
in 1979 that had concluded that mul­
tiple custodians of State funds in
time deposit accounts in FDIC-insured banks qualified under the
FD IC’s insurance regulation for sep­
arate deposit insurance coverage.
The 1979 opinion was based on a
Colorado law that authorized the
State Treasurer to appoint one or
more persons to act as custodians
for State funds in time deposit ac­
counts.

T

The 1985 interpretation concludes
that multiple custodians appointed
pursuant to the Colorado statute are
not “ official custodians” under the
Federal Deposit Insurance Act or
under the FDIC’s insurance regula­
tion. Therefore, they are not entitled
to separate deposit insurance cover­
age. The revised interpretation
notes that the multiple custodians
appointed under the Colorado sta­
tute exercise no control over public
funds and are not, therefore, custo­
dians in fact, and appear to have
been appointed solely in an effort to
increase deposit insurance coverage.
In order to protect public funds
placed in FDIC-insured banks in re­
liance on the 1979 opinion, the
Board ordered that the new ruling
be phased-in for all State or local
public unit deposits placed before
announcement of the revised inter­
pretation. Specifically, the Board
ordered that any deposit in an FDICinsured bank which was made by a
public unit official through multiple
custodians appointed under the Col­
orado statute in question or under
any similar State or local law and
which was made, renewed, or ex­
tended on or before April 5, 1985
(March 19, 1985 for deposits made
by the Colorado State Treasurer)
will be insured under the 1979 inter­
pretation, and those made, renewed,
or extended after that date will be
insured under the 1985 rule.

L. Wm. Seidman Proposed
As FDIC Chairman Nominee
The name of L. William Seidman,
currently dean of the Arizona State
University Business School of Phoe­
nix, is being tested in Congress as
the leading nominee for chairman of
the FDIC to succeed Wm. M. Isaac,
who announced earlier he would
leave that office. Mr. Seidman is
well-known in Washington circles as
a former economic advisor to former
President Gerald Ford. Mr. Seid­
man, 64, is a CPA by profession and
has held a number of previous state
and federal government posts. A for­
mal nomination is expected soon.

Iowa News
Thomas H. Huston, Iowa superin­
tendent of banking, said last week a
decision has not yet been made
whether to appeal a. ruling from the
8th Circuit Court of Appeals in St.
Louis that upheld the Federal Re­
serve Board’s approval of purchase
of stock in two Iowa banking units
by out-of-state bank holding compa­
nies.
The 8th Court upheld the Fed’s
approval in February, 1984, for
First Bank System of Minneapolis
to purchase 500,000 non-voting
shares (21%) of Banks of Iowa, Des
Moines. It also upheld Fed approval
for Omaha National Corporation to
buy 24.9% of KSAD, Inc., which
owns First National Bank of Council
Bluffs.

Ron Molstad, V.P. in charge of branch operations and credit, em­
ployed a branch manager with the help of AGRIcareers’ Linda
Heit. Today’s high-stress financial situation in rural America requires hiring loan personnel with excellent skills in financial, pro­
duction and farm commodity management...people difficult to
find, he relates.

Greg Simmons manages PCA’s Mora, Minn, branch in a rural com­
munity of 2600 located 60 miles north of the Twin Cities. This
28-year-old University of Minn, ag graduate had five years in ag
lending and professional farm management before starting this
position in June of 1984.

are few.
“ Dealing with human emotions of
people that are having financial dif­
ficulties can be very dramatic for the
lender.”
Needed, feels Molstad, are loan
personnel with empathy, maturity,
and good counseling skills—the abil­
ity to listen as well as communicate.
Stamina, perseverance, and firm­
ness also are vital, he says.
Persons with these skills in full
