• Vol. 16 No. 17 Des Moines, Iowa August 10,1987 Pres. Reagan Agrees to Sign H.R. 27; 9Secondary Market Bill Advances B OTH the House and Senate last week approved a final version of H.R. 27 and sent it on to President Ronald Reagan by mid-week. The “ President was expected to sign the bill at once and its provisions would become effective immediately. H .R. 27 contains several titles of ^im portance to the banking industry. 9 Am ong them is Title I, which closes the non-bank bank loophole by pro hibiting further chartering o f such banks. Present ones are grand fa t h e r e d as o f March 5, 1987, and ihey may offer only those services and products authorized by the Fed for BHCs; they must confine asset growth to no more than 7% per year, ^ b u t that provision is not effective w for another year. Title II im poses a moratorium on new products and services for banks until next March. a Title III recapitalizes the Federal Savings & Loan Insurance Corpora tion. Congress approved an $8.5 bil lion rescue package, but reconvened and boosted that to $ 10.8 billion as £ requested by the Adm inistration as its price for cancelling a Presidential veto threat. Another provision authorizes ag banks (under $100 m illion assets, 0 25% o f loans in ag, and an ag loan percentage no lower than it had in January, 1986) to amortize loan losses over a seven-year period. A schedule setting forth the num ber o f days in which banks must give custom ers credit for checks also was included. An initial period of funds availability calls for a mini mum o f two intervening business days for local checks; i.e., in same processing region. Non-local will allow six intervening business days. Those rules apply to August 31, 1990, when they will drop to one day for local checks, four days for non local. Both the American Bankers A sso ciation and the Independent Bank ers Association o f Am erica had lob bied heavily to obtain passage of H.R. 27 and its predecessor bills. Secondary Market Bill The House Agriculture Commit tee concluded its work on H .R. 3030 at 2:30 a.m. last Thursday, August 6. That bill contains details for a Farm Credit System refinancing res cue, as well as creation o f a secon dary market for ag real estate loans, which has been pushed hard by both A B A and IB A A in a join t effort. House A g Committee Chairman Kika de la Garza (D., Tex.) had ap pointed a special House Task Force to work out details o f the bill. The secondary market structure the A B A /IB A A Task Force and life insurance companies coalition had wished for was basically adopted. FCS had wanted control o f the board for such a secondary market; however the com m ittee’s proposal would assign three seats to FCS, three to commercial lenders and seven to Presidential appointees. H.R. 2435, which had been proposed initially to create the secondary market as requested by the banking and life insurance interests, was of fered and adopted as an amendment to the FCS H.R. 3030 bill. The com m ittee’s bill also would authorize FCS to securitize sepa rately a number o f their loans other than real estate. This provision would not becom e effective before the ag real estate secondary market became operative. The ag com m ittee’s bill, H.R. 3030, will now go to the House floor when that body reconvenes near Mid-September. Am ong those testifying before the House ag com m ittee on behalf o f the bill were these area bankers: Randy Killebrew, chairman o f the banker Task Force and president, First National Bank, Petersburg, 111.; Paul Lindholm, A B A member of the com m ittee and president, Farm ers & M erchants State Bank, Clarksfield, Minn.; IB A A President Tom Olson, president, Lisco State Bank in Lisco, Nebr., and John Dean, chairman o f the IB A A A gri culture-Rural Am erica Committee and president, G lenw ood State Bank, Glenwood, la. □ F irsT ier More o f what ft takes Correspondent Services to serve you well. ^ ^ ^5 ^ ^ ^ FirsTier Banks Lincoln • Omaha FirsTier Bank, N.A., Lincoln and FirsTier Bank, N.A., Omaha, Members FDIC https://fraser.stlouisfed.org Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis 2 ¡¡Bm m Norwest Bank Des Moines, N.A.
