To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 907

The section requires each of the federal financial institutions regulatory agencies to review the forms used to apply to become a new regulated institution, to gather what it can from other federal agencies or public sources so as to ask applicants for less, and, with the Securities and Exchange Commission, to review how such institutions raise capital while keeping investor protections, including the effect of general capital raising restrictions and those tied to investors who are not accredited.

What the document actually says

“(B) to the extent practicable, gather information needed from applicants seeking to become a de novo regulated institution from other Federal Government agencies or public sources to minimize information requests of such applicants; and”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 907
That sentence, in plain words

The regulator must get what it can from other places. It may use other federal agencies or public sources. The point is to ask the applicant for less.

What this is about

A de novo institution is a brand new bank or credit union. Starting one takes heavy paperwork. This tries to cut it down.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
