Based on these guiding principles, CBAI has identified the following 2023 Federal Legislative and Regulatory Policy Priorities, which if implemented, will help community banks thrive and better serve their customers and communities. Traditional Issues, Opportunities and Concerns Additional Meaningful Regulatory Relief for Community Banks The importance of community banks cannot be overstated, and they serve their customers and communities honestly and with respect. CBAI joins the ICBA in supporting a more efficient system of rules and regulations, unbiased laws governing the financial sector, a safer and more secure business environment, and more efficient agricultural policies to support the nations economic growth and development in all parts of the country. Community Bank Position on Credit Unions and Their Expanded Powers Credit unions have long since strayed from their founding purpose of serving individuals of modest means and with a common bond. They blatantly abuse their competitive advantages and are virtually indistinguishable from tax-paying community banks. Credit union acquisitions of community banks is a recent and disturbing trend that negatively impacts all taxpayers. An exit fee should be imposed on these acquisitions. This escalation of credit unions abusing of their tax-exemption should prompt Congress to act now. This abuse is an existential threat to community banks and the communities they serve. Community Bank Position on the Farm Credit System and its Expanded Powers The Farm Credit System (FCS) has long since strayed from its founding purposes, blatantly abusing its competitive advantages against community banks. The FCS is the only GSE that competes directly with community banks. This blatant and continuing discrimination against community banks must end and FCS competitive advantages must be reined-in, and the playing field leveled for community banks. Current Issues, Opportunities and Concerns Finally Address the Risks of Too-Big-To-Fail (and now Too-Big-To-Not-Completely-Insure) Banks and Financial Firms to Protect Our Financial System, the Economy, and American Taxpayers from Future Bailouts TBTF The financial crisis, taxpayer bailouts, and subsequent recession was caused by the misconduct of the nations largest banks and financial firms. These megabanks have proven, at great cost to American taxpayers, that they cannot be effectively managed, supervised or disciplined. They are clearly too-big-to-change, too-big-to-fail and must be downsized. TBTNCI The recent failures of two large banks in early 2023, and the FDIC insuring 100% of their uninsured deposits, have raised new concerns about deposit insurance and have prompted calls for broader FDIC reforms. If systemically important financial institutions (SIFIs) cause losses to the Deposit Insurance Fund (DIF) then SIFIs should be responsible for reimbursing the DIF for those losses. Reasonable Rules and Implementation Modernizing the Community Reinvestment Act (CRA) (OCC, Federal Reserve and FDIC) The modernization of the CRA must enhance the ability of community banks to serve their communities and must not impose any additional regulatory burden. All financial service providers must be subject to the CRA to provide a complete picture of every financial institutions performance in serving their communities. A modernization of the CRA that does not encompass credit unions, Farm Credit System lenders and Fintechs (including the OCCs Special Purpose National Banks) will be a sham. Agriculture and Rural America A vibrant rural economy is vital to Americas prosperity. The multi-year Farm Bill provided a strong safety net for farmers and ranchers including adequate price-protection programs and enhanced USDA-guaranteed farm and business loan programs. These programs must be protected from cuts or any adverse changes that would discourage farmer and rancher participation or undermine private-sector delivery. Federal Reserves Role in Payments System Improvement (FedNow Service) A fast and secure payments system is the very foundation of financial services and the economy and must be modernized. The payments system must not be monopolized by The Clearing House and its 25 large bank owners that endangered our financial system and the entire economy during the financial crisis. Community banks, small businesses and consumers must rely on the Federal Reserve to provide access to a safe and secure payments system. The Federal Reserve must be supported in its development of the FedNow Service to ensure that all participants have access to a real-time system on a fair and impartial basis.
