Highlights:
- The proposed revised Interagency Questions and Answers contain guidance that addresses the most frequently asked questions and answers about flood insurance to help financial institutions meet their compliance responsibilities under the federal flood insurance laws and regulations, and to increase public understanding of the flood insurance regulations.
- New questions and answers, as well as substantive and technical revisions to the existing guidance, touch on several topics, including construction loans, residential condominium loans, loan syndications and participations, gap insurance policies, and mandatory civil money penalties.
- After public comment has been received and considered and the Interagency Questions and Answers have been adopted in final form, the revised Interagency Questions and Answers will supersede the 1997 Interagency Questions and Answers.
