A Farm Credit Administration ("FCA") proposal that would amend the regulatory capital requirements for Farm Credit System institutions was published in the Federal Register.

The proposed amendments would, among other things, revise the definitions of "Collateral agreement," "Eligible margin loan," "Qualifying master netting agreement," and "Repo-style transaction" to conform these definitions in the FCA's capital rules to those included in the rules of the OCC, the Federal Reserve Board, and the FDIC.

Comments on the proposal must be submitted by November 9, 2020.
