Nutter Bank Report, Special Edition: Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program’s Opt-Out Date Is Dec. 5
Print PDFThe FDIC on November 21 adopted a final rule implementing the Temporary Liquidity Guarantee Program (TLG Program), which guarantees newly issued senior unsecured debt of banks, thrifts and most bank and thrift holding companies (the Debt Guarantee Program), and provides full deposit insurance coverage of non-interest bearing transaction accounts regardless of dollar amount (the Transaction Account Guarantee Program). By December 5, all eligible institutions must take action with respect to both the Transaction Account Guarantee Program and the Debt Guarantee Program. All institutions must complete an election form to either opt-out of one or both components of the TLG Program or provide data to the FDIC to determine each participating institution’s debt guarantee limit and agree to certain terms. The TLG Program election form is available via FDICconnect. Institutions that remain in either program must comply with various disclosure requirements that become effective on Dec. 19. Before that date, the rule states that eligible institutions “should provide adequate disclosures” in a “commercially reasonable manner.” More information is available at www.nutter.com and www.fdic.gov.
