Truth in Savings — 1999-09-14 [99-23140]

The Board is requesting comment on proposed revisions to Regulation DD, which implements the Truth in Savings Act (TISA). The Board previously published a proposed rule that permits depository institutions to use electronic communication (for example, communication via personal computer and modem) to provide disclosures required by the act and regulation, if the consumer agrees to such delivery. (A similar rule was also proposed under various other consumer financial services and fair lending regulations administered by the Board.) In response to comments received on the proposals, the Board is publishing for comment an alternative proposal on the electronic delivery of disclosures, together with proposed commentary that would provide further guidance on electronic communication issues.
