Both sets of guidelines became effective on June 28, 2004.As revised, the Guidelines for Appeals of Material Supervisory Determinations change the composition of the Supervision Appeals Review Committee (SARC), reducing it from five to three voting members drawn from the most senior levels of the Corporation. The guidelines set forth procedures to be followed by FDIC-supervised institutions when appealing material supervisory determinations. No appeal to the SARC is allowed unless an institution has first filed a timely request for review with the Director of the FDIC’s Division of Supervision and Consumer Protection (DSC). The guidelines provide for the DSC Director to issue a written determination regarding the division’s review, setting forth the grounds for the determination. If dissatisfied with that determination, institutions have discretion to appeal to the SARC. The types of determinations eligible for review by the SARC and the standards by which appeals are decided remain unchanged.Under the guidelines, institutions should make a good faith effort to resolve any dispute concerning a material supervisory determination with the on-site examiner or the appropriate DSC Regional Office. Any request for review must be filed with DSC, and DSC will issue a written determination within 30 calendar days. An institution that does not agree with DSC’s determination may appeal that determination to the SARC within 30 calendar days. The SARC will review the appeal and notify the institution in writing of its decision, usually within 60 calendar days.The Guidelines for Appeals of Deposit Insurance Assessment Determinations change the composition of the Assessment Appeals Committee (AAC), reducing it from seven to five voting members drawn from the most senior Corporation levels. The guidelines set forth procedures to be followed by FDIC-insured depository institutions that choose to appeal adverse assessment determinations they have received from the appropriate FDIC division. The types of determinations eligible for review by the AAC and the standards by which such appeals are decided remain unchanged.Under the FDIC’s assessment regulations, an institution that disputes the computation of its quarterly assessment payment must comply with the filing requirements set forth at 12 C.F.R. § 327.3(h), while a dispute over risk classification must comply with the filing requirements set forth at 12 C.F.R. § 327.4(d). An insured depository institution dissatisfied with the determination made by the appropriate division pursuant to either section may appeal that determination to the AAC. The AAC will review the appeal and notify the institution in writing of its decision, usually within 60 calendar days.Robert E. FeldmanExecutive Secretary
