On December 12, 2019, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC") proposed revisions to the restrictions on brokered deposits (the "Proposal").11 The Proposal is intended to modernize the FDIC's framework for brokered deposits, and would revise both the substantive regulations for brokered deposits and the procedures for requesting exceptions and filing reports.

The Proposal would narrow the scope of the brokered deposits regulation by (i) more explicitly defining who is a deposit broker and (ii) expanding the exclusions for putative brokers that are subsidiaries of the insured depository institution or operate with a primary purpose other than placing funds at depository institutions (the "Primary Purpose Exception").
