Vol. 9 No. 42 ABA Seeks Reform of Bankruptcy A ct ® ^ w q f 0 0 # # February 9,1981 Des Moines, Iowa ^^O N SU M ER bankruptcies have jumped a whopping 75% since more liberal provisions of the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978 became effective in October, 1979, and dollar losses of creditors from each filing also have increased, according to a spokesman for the American Bankers Association. “We have specific recommenda tions we will take to Congress that address the critical problem of soaring consumer bankruptcies which has occurred under the Bankruptcy Reform Act of 1978,” said Walter W. Vaughan, chairman of the A BA ’s Bankruptcy Task Force. Those recommendations were endorsed recently by the admini strative committee of the A BA ’s Government Relations Council. The federal administrative office of the bankruptcy courts reported that in the first full year following implementation of the Act, from October, 1979, to October, 1980, total individual filings were 366,418, an increase of 156,875 over the 209,543 such bankruptcies reported in the year ending October, 1979. This is a jump of 75% in just one year, an alarming rate of increase to bankers and other holders of credit. “But the Task Force concluded that the problems associated with increased bankruptcy filings could not be solved through legislative changes alone,” said Mr. Vaughan, who is senior vice president, Community Bankers Division, American Security Bank, Washing ton DC. “Factors intertwined with these statistics, though, include aggres sive attorney promotion through advertising of bankruptcy as a cost-free way to eliminate debt, and a generally sluggish economy,” Mr. Vaughan said. “What we can hope, through legislative change, is to eliminate cases of abuse, tighten up some of the administrative aspects and establish standards of ‘good faith’ and ‘best effort’ in the law,” Mr. Vaughan said. “Already, banks are tightening up on consumer lending to protect against losses from bankruptcies. Unfortunately, it will be the deserving customers who will end up paying the freight for those who are taking advantage of the system,” Mr. Vaughan said. In addition to its federal legislative effort, the ABA through its Instalment Lending and State Association Divisions is developing educational programs to respond to bankers’ needs in understanding the new law, identifying problem consumer loans, and knowing the creditor’s rights in a bankruptcy proceeding. The ABA is developing a booklet for state banking associations for use in revising their state exemption laws. The new law allows states to override the federal exemptions, and sixteen states have done so. Several states also have revised their exemption laws. The ABA will also seek methods of dealing with problems in attorney advertising. “It was the perception of members of the task force that there has been a profound change in consumer attitudes toward bank ruptcy,” Mr. Vaughan said. “A profile of the new bankrupt is emerging that is shockingly akin to that of the customer who would once have been issued unsecured credit as a matter of routine procedure.” he said. Mr. Vaughan said a “good faith” ASK DALE FROEHLICH to make MNB work for you.

Waterloo, Iowa 50704 Member FDIC requirement in Chapter 7 would require the debtor to show some legitimate need for relief, a requirement that does not currently exist. Chapter 7 provides for the liquidation of a debtor’s eligible assets and distribution of the proceeds to creditors. “We also recommend a ‘best effort’ test in Chapter 13,” he said. Chapter 13 provides for a courtapproved repayment plan for individuals without liquidation of assets. “We have seen cases where the court has approved Chapter 13 plans which provide for as little as two percent repayment of debts, where we know the debtor could afford more,” Mr. Vaughan said. Other amendments in A BA ’s package would provide for faster and better administration of Chapter 13 cases, prohibit unrea sonable conversion of nonexempt assets to exempt assets in contemplations of bankruptcy, prohibit repetitious filings under Chapter 13, revise the rules regarding reaffirmation and intro- duce some additional valuation standards into the new law. □ Iowa News In anticipation of austere budget recommendations by Governor Robert Ray, the Iowa Bankers Association board of directors has urged their membership of 653 banks to pay their franchise tax early.
