Vol. 14 No. 49 Des Moines, Iowa Regulators Explain Ag Bank Plans ED ER A L banking regulators agreed in their recent testimony before the Senate Banking Commit tee that some form of regulatory aid and forbearance needs to be made available to assist hard-hit banks in the handling of actual losses and in treatment of renegotiated loans. Although the testimony was promp ted by the ag crisis, apparently the regulators’ policies would apply equally to banks suffering from the energy crisis in energy states. • Leaders of the three agencies ex pressed their desire not to discour age ag banks from using forbearance on ag loans by restructuring of debt, if the borrower can reasonably be ex pected to repay the principal. • Federal regulators will provide a unified approach to forbearance by allowing banks to use Financial Ac counting Standards Board Rule 15. This permits a bank to retain the credit on its books as a performing loan so long as terms of the restruc turing are in compliance. This elimi nates immediate charge-off of the loan itself or any part of it, if Rule 15 is used. The Fed and Comptroller previously had endorsed the use of Rule 15 for banks, and the FD IC ’s concurrence now is a reversal of ear lier policy. • In addition, the three regulators would create a new reporting cate gory in call reports for “Restruc F tured and In Compliance with Modi fied Terms.” The loans in this cate gory would be classified as “per forming loans.” It is anticipated this will be effective with June 30 call reports. • Capital forbearance also was en dorsed by the three regulators as an alternative to loan loss deferral and net worth certificate proposals that have been made. The regulators stated in their joint statement that this “will allow a bank experiencing difficulties to operate below the min imum capital requirement provided the bank has the capacity to restore capital within five years.” They said this would permit an ag bank to put some part of its ag loan charge-offs into a segregated account limited to a percentage of the bank’s primary capital. Additions could be made to this account during the first two-year period, and the special ac count then could be amortized in equal installments in the five-year period following its creation. No further detail was given for the plan, which is endorsed principally by the Comptroller and the FDIC. The Fed said “A more straightfor ward way of buying time for institu tions would be simply for supervi sors to permit them to operate for some interval with capital at levels below supervisory standards.” The regulators also said some March 24,1986 questions relating to the proposal re main unanswered, such as tax conse quences, whether the concept would need to be issued as a regulation (re quiring an extended time period for initiation) or as a guideline (effective immediately). In addition, they would allow the deferred account to be included with the remaining bank capital to retain the bank’s single borrower limit for lending. S e n a te B a n k in g C om m ittee Chairman Jake Garn (R., Utah) told the federal regulators that he and Sen. Robert Dole (R., Kan.), the Se nate Majority Leader, are com mitted to early action on a workable ag bank plan. However, he urged the regulators to take immediately all action possible under their own au thority to expedite the programs that could assit hard-pressed banks. □ Iowa News Iowa Bankers Insurance & Ser vices, Inc. will be conducting five in surance continuing education semi nars during April.
