The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the Office of Thrift Supervision (OTS) (collectively, the Agencies) are adopting as a final rule their joint interim rule implementing section 306 of the Riegle Community Development and Regulatory Improvement Act of 1994 (CDRI) and section 2221 of the Economic Growth and Regulatory Paperwork Reduction Act of 1996 (EGRPRA). Together, section 306 of CDRI and section 2221 of EGRPRA authorize the Agencies to increase the asset size of certain financial institutions that may be examined once in every 18-month period, rather than once in every 12-month period, from $100 million to a revised limit of $250 million.
