• Vol. 16 No. 40 Des Moines, Iowa It’s Time to Stand Up And Be Counted Today! today's date of this Newsletter, commercial bankers IhaveNCLUDING ju st 43 days left in which to make their opinion known to their Congressmen that they want the Moratorium lifted, as promised, by March 1, and new powers to com pete with other segments of the fi nancial industry. This all-out effort should include a personal letter or postcard from every officer, staff member, director and their adult family members... and customers, if possible. ABA and IBA A offices have furnished com plete details to each member bank. If you need details for your letters and those of the other parties noted above, contact your state associa tion office at once. Congress will gauge the intensity of banker inter est in this critical matter by the level of input generated by bankers. This is one job the lobbyists can’t do for the membership. It requires your personal involvem ent. A few minutes spent on this legislation to day can mean years of greater pro ductivity for all banks, so act now! FDIC Nixes Regulation Requiring Outside Audits FD IC Chairman William L. Seidman said the agency is dropping its proposal for a full-opinion, outside audit of banks because “well over 90 percent of the banking institutions with more than $100 million in assets already have an opinion au d it. . . For banks under $100 million, only 58 percent have a full opinion audit. We believe many smaller institutions that do have audits could improve safety and soundness if a less than full-scope audit could be designed for this pur pose.” He added that his staff is endeavoring to develop an “afford able special audit for small banks,” working with CPAs and the banking industry. Nebraska News LB 664e, the Farm Mediation Act, was recently debated by the Nebraska legislature. It failed by two votes to advance to Select File status and remains on General File. LB 488, which would provide for the deposit of public funds in stock S & Ls beginning in 1990, was amended and advanced to Select File. LB 703, which would allow for de novo branch banking, was held over. Amendments to limit branching to Douglas, Sarpy and Lancaster coun ties are reportedly being drafted to be considered in the future.
