Vol. 16 No. 48 Des Moines, Iowa A B A Leader Sees Struggle for Powers P E A K IN G before the Bank Management Conference and Legislative Briefing conducted in Des Moines last week by the Iowa Bankers Association, A B A Execu tive Vice President Don Ogilvie said the outlook is favorable for Senate passage of the Proxmire-Gam ex panded powers bill, but it faces a tougher battle in the House. Congress kept its pledge on March 1 to kill the moratorium im posed last March 9th that prohibi ted banking regulators from authori zing any new services for federally chartered banks. Subsequently, the Proxmire-Gam Bill was adopted .18-2, providing expanded securities ^activities for banks. The bill authorizes banks to underwrite securities, com m ercial paper, revenue bonds and mortgage backed securities immediately. Delayed for 180 days is authority to deal in mutual funds and underwrite any corporate debt. Specifically not authorized is the underwriting of corporate equities, and an up or down vote on that issue will take place April 1, 1991. “ This is basically a repeal of Glass-Steagall,” Mr. Ogilvie stated. “ Senators Proxmire and Garn worked hard to get this bill passed. The outlook for it in the Senate is good. We look for its passage in the spring, based upon the heavy 18-2 endorsement it received in commit S tee. “ However, its outlook is more dangerous in the House, especially in the insurance arena. We want nothing to impede the rights of bankers to offer any service granted by their individual states. The Dodd Amendment in the House would allow states to authorize services for banks, but it would prohibit banks from selling insurance outside their domiciled community or across state lines. For example, if you’re a state-chartered bank in Iowa and owned by an out-of-state company, you couldn’t handle insurance. “ Also, Rep. Dingell of the Energy Committee opposes us as does Rep. St Germain, who opposes banks having securities powers. He could respond to the Senate Bill by trying to eliminate bank insurance powers. “ With the success the banking in dustry has had in getting the mora torium killed we have built for the future because of your willingness to stand up and support the bill. This outpouring of support, represented by an estimated one million letters and calls to Congressmen, has strengthened us for the future. Now, we must determine if we will sup port the (expanded powers) bill if it receives crippling amendments in the House. Washington pundits said we couldn’t get the job done on the moratorium because of the opposi tion from the securities, insurance March 14,1988 and real estate industries, but you have seen the results of your work. We have now been informed by the real estate agents that they will no lo n g e r op p ose us on th is legislation.” Mr. Ogilvie earlier in the day at tended an Iowa Bankers Associa tion board meeting to present Presi dent Clair Lensing a plaque honor ing the IB A for ten consecutive years of 100% support for BankPac. IB A Executive Neil Milner followed Mr. Ogilvie and related that the IB A has received a letter from the Iowa Association of Insurance Agents that it will not oppose the bank powers bill. Many Iowa bank ers are members of that associa tion. □ M a rk O ls o n to J o in A rth u r Y o u n g W a s h in g to n O ffic e Mark W.
