Financial Institution Letters |
REGULATORY RELIEF |
FIL-100-2003 |
||||||||||
The recent earthquakes near San Simeon, California, have resulted in deaths, injuries and property damage. The FDIC is encouraging banks to work constructively with borrowers who, because of the damage from the earthquakes, are experiencing difficulties beyond their control. The FDIC has prepared the attached guidelines, which state that extending repayment terms, restructuring existing loans or easing terms for new loans, if done in a manner consistent with sound banking practices, can contribute to the health of the community and serve the long-term interests of the lending institution. The guidelines also address other types of regulatory relief. For guidance on these and related matters, please contact Assistant Regional Director George J. Doerr in the FDIC's San Francisco Regional Office at (415) 808-8019. For your reference, FDIC financial institution letters may be accessed from the FDIC's Web site at www.fdic.gov/news/news/financial/2003/index.html.
