SUMMARY: As part of the FDIC’s
systematic review of its regulations and
written policies under section 303(a) of
the Riegle Community Development and

Policy. Remaining information that is
relevant will be placed, in condensed

regarding Applications for Deposit
Insurance, and Bank Merger

excessive or unwarranted fees incident
to an application.

Policy is rescinded effective April 1,
1997.
