Streamlining Regulations Concerning Public Welfare Investments, Open Market Collateralized Loan Obligations, and Federal Savings Association Nondiscrimination Requirements

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency invites public comment on a notice of proposed rulemaking (proposed rule) to rescind or amend certain regulations that are unnecessary, based on anything other than the best reading of the underlying statutory authority, or lacking clear statutory authority, consistent with the criteria set out in the Executive Order titled Ensuring Lawful Governance and Implementing the President's "Department of Government Efficiency" Deregulatory Initiative. The proposed rule would remove certain references to minority- and women-owned entities; remove the portion of the credit risk retention requirements that provides an alternative compliance option for lead arrangers of open market collateralized loan obligations; and remove certain duplicative non-discrimination requirements for Federal savings associations.
