The Farm Credit Administration (FCA) is proposing to amend the
regulations governing the eligibility of investments held by Farm Credit banks.
These regulations would be improved by reinforcing that only
high quality investments may be purchased and held, and the regulations will
comply with section 939A of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act.
The FCA also proposes to revise the regulatory approach to
Farm Credit System association investments to limit the type and amount of
investments that an association may hold.
Comments are accepted until October 23, 2014.
