The US Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, and the US Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation announced an increase in the aggregate loan commitment threshold for an institution to be included in the Shared National Credit program. The agencies noted that the increase from $20 million to $100 million reflects changes in average loan size and adjustments for inflation. In their joint release, the agencies noted that this change will bring regulatory relief to 82 financial institutions, while only nominally reducing the dollar amount of loans evaluated under the Shared National Credit program.
