Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Clearer FDIC signs for consumers
You will see clearer signage on banks' digital deposit-taking channels and on automated teller machines (ATMs) that helps show when you are conducting business with an insured depository institution (IDI) and when your funds are protected by the FDIC's deposit insurance coverage. The proposal is meant to reduce confusion that has arisen under current signage rules.
More flexibility for bank signage
Insured depository institutions (IDIs) would get additional flexibility in how they display FDIC membership on digital deposit-taking channels and on ATMs and like devices. The FDIC is seeking public comment on these proposed changes to address implementation issues and potential sources of confusion before finalizing any rule.
