One of the AMB’s Guiding

regulators and the U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Financial Crimes
Enforcement Network (FinCEN) today issued a joint statement to address instances concerning
collaborative arrangements among banks to share resources to manage their
Bank Secrecy Act (BSA) and anti-money laundering (AML) obligations. We are
encouraged that are efforts to encourage more agency support for collaboration
among banks to share compliance costs are bearing fruit. However, the statement
contains numerous caveats which we believe require further consideration. we
will continue to press for more relief in this area.

Signaling that the Congress consists of two coequal bodies with a reference to a Forbes magazine article that cites the classic children’s educational cartoon on how a bill becomes law, Chairman Hensarling has made it clear he expects the deference due accorded to the coequal body of the legislative branch. The committee under the tag “In case you missed it” issued a press release attaching the Forbes magazine article on the likelihood of the House insisting on changes to the Senate Bill. It is becoming clear that the House may not rollover to the Senate Bill without some concessions. The other trade groups have also moderated their call for quick House action.

February 27, 2018 - Mutual Alert - House Passes Risk Based Approach Requirement for Capital Requirements
Today the House passed H.R. 4296, co-sponsored by Chairman Blaine Luetkemeyer (R. Mo.) and Congressman Gregory Meeks (D. N.Y.), in a vote of 245 to 169. The AMB supported Bill would relieve mutual banks from one size fits all capital requirements and adopt a tailored approach that is tied to risk. Chairman Hensarling praised the passage and noted the billions in dollars that are held unnecessarily as capital which could be infused into the economy. If this Bill becomes law, mutual banks will have an even more compelling need to impress upon the regulators the relatively low risk profile of the mutual form. A copy of the Committee Press Release is attached.
