FDIC Shelves Rules on Deposits and Governance
Published Date: 3/14/2025
Proposed Rule
Summary
The FDIC is hitting pause and withdrawing its earlier plans to change rules about brokered deposits, bank leadership, and bank ownership changes. This means banks with $10 billion or more won’t see new rules right now, but the FDIC might bring fresh ideas later. No new costs or deadlines are coming from this move—just a wait-and-see moment.
