COMMUNITY BANKINGFDIC Releases Results of

Study of Community Banking in the U.S.

B D

FEATURE

The Federal Deposit Insur-ance Corpora-tion (FDIC)on December 18, 2012, re-leased the re-

sults of a study of community banking in the United States, as well as a series of supervisory and rulemaking mea-sures relating to community banks, as the outcome of its yearlong Commu-nity Banking Initiative (CBI). FDIC Chairman Martin J. Gruenberg said, “Today’s release is an important step to better understand and respond to the challenges community banks face in the financial marketplace. This will be an ongoing effort. We will con-tinue to look for other opportunities to enhance our research and analysis as well as to identify other steps to improve the examination and rule-making process for community banks, while maintaining our supervisory standards.” Gruenberg said that banks fitting the FDIC’s definition of a community bank held 14% of the banking industry’s as-sets, but provide 46% of the industry’s loans to businesses and farmers. The FDIC announced the CBI in the fall of 2011 to further the understand-ing of the evolution of community banks during the past 25 years, devot-ing comprehensive research and anal-ysis to the current challenges and op-portunities for community banks, and implications for the future of commu-nity banking. This effort was comple-mented by outreach and engagement with community bankers across the country. The FDIC launched the CBI in Feb-ruary 2012 with a national conference on community banking in Washing-ton, DC. Following the conference, the FDIC hosted roundtable meetings be-tween community bankers and senior

FDIC officials in each of the FDIC’s six regions. In addition, the FDIC’s Divi-sions of Risk Management Supervi-sion (RMS) and Depositor and Con-sumer Protection (DCP) undertook comprehensive reviews of their exam-ination and rulemaking processes to identify opportunities to make these processes more efficient and effective, while maintaining supervisory stan-dards. The Community Banking Study was a data-driven effort to identify and ex-plore issues and questions about com-munity banks. The study is designed to be foundational, providing a plat-form for future research and analysis by the FDIC and other interested par-ties. Key areas that the study explores include: the definition of a community bank, structural changes among com-munity and non-community banks, the geography of community banking, the performance of community banks compared to non-community banks, the performance of community bank lending specialty groups, and capital

formation at community banks. The study, national conference, and regional roundtables helped to inform and guide the FDIC’s comprehensive reviews of the examination and rule-making process. As first outlined at the FDIC’s Advisory Committee on Community Banking on November 8, 2012, the FDIC has taken actions to address the examination and rule-making review findings in the follow-ing areas: general examination issues, communications, regulations, and technical assistance. The initial findings can be found at www.fdic.gov/cbi. FDIC press releases and other information are available on the Internet at www.fdic.gov, by sub-scription electronically (go to www.fdic.gov/about/subscriptions/index.html) and may also be obtained through the FDIC’s Public Information Center (877-275-3342 or 703-562-2200). Bankers Digest plans to explore fur-ther the results of the study of com-munity banking in a future FEATURE column. Stay tuned! Q

Since entering the OK market in 2004, IBC Bank has invested more than $75 million in new branches and fixed assets across its 52 OK locations, including building and remodeling 37 locations.

The new building will incor-porate historic elements such as the iconic red brick found throughout the city and historic pieces from the bank dating back to 1906 that will be on dis-play at the new building for customers and visitors during business hours,” he said. The new facility will include a community room, three drive-thru lanes, and a drive-up ATM Q
