Permanent Capital Revisions

What it does

The Farm Credit Administration (FCA or we) requests comments on a proposed rule for Farm Credit System (System) banks and associations that would reduce the burden of calculating permanent capital and minimize potential confusion about its use in evaluating the safety and soundness of System institutions. Specifically, the proposed rule would remove references to permanent capital in shareholder and investor reporting regulations as well as in certain other regulations. It would also simplify the calculation of the permanent capital ratio and make other clarifications, corrections, and updates to capital-related regulations.
