The U.S. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency has announced updates to a number of supervision booklets, including the "Bank Supervision Process," "Community Bank Supervision," "Compliance Management Systems" and "Large Bank Supervision" booklets of the Comptroller's Handbook, and the "Federal Branches and Agencies Supervision" booklet. The updated booklets replace previously issued booklets of the same titles. The OCC also provided a table of previously issued bulletins and publications that have been rescinded and incorporated into the updated booklets. At a high level, the revisions and updates clarify the applicability of the booklets for financial institutions of differing size; add content with respect to asset management, including assessing Bank Secrecy Act, anti-money laundering and Office of Foreign Assets Control compliance; incorporate aspects of the Dodd-Frank Act; make technical corrections, including clarified terminology and to reflect the integration of the Office of Thrift Supervision into the OCC; include revised concepts and references; and incorporate references to OCC issuances published since each booklet's last publication date.
