Summary

The chapter starts on the 180th day after December 31, 1975. Any institution listed in section 2802(2)(A) that had total assets of $10,000,000 or less in its last full fiscal year is not covered by the chapter. The Bureau, working with the Secretary, can also exempt institutions listed in section 2802(2)(B) if they are similar to those small institutions, and that similarity is judged without using the inflation change explained below. After December 31, 1996, the $10,000,000 cutoff is increased each year by the yearly percent change in the Consumer Price Index for Urban Wage Earners and Clerical Workers from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The first increase after September 30, 1996 is the percent difference between the CPI for 1996 and the CPI for 1975. Each year’s dollar cutoff is rounded to the nearest $1,000,000.
