This is a specific task related to the examinations detailed in the statute, even using open-ended terms.

The regulation, 12 CFR Part 8, explicitly cites 12 U.S.C. § 481 as authority. The regulation addresses the assessment of fees related to the examinations authorized under § 481, thereby directly implementing and building upon the statute.

The statute specifies a particular regulatory task (examination of banks and their affiliates) and provides explicit direction regarding the scope, frequency, and reporting requirements associated with those examinations.

The statute’s focus on bank examination and affiliate relations allows the agency to fulfill its mandate in protecting banks from excessive risk.

The regulation cites 12 U.S.C. 481 as one of its authorities. The statute specifically addresses the examination of national banks and their affiliates, and the regulation (12 CFR Part 45) addresses margin and capital requirements for covered swap entities, which could include national banks and their affiliates. Therefore, the regulation is directly mandated by the statute, at least in part.

While 12 U.S.C. § 481 primarily focuses on the examination of banks and their affiliates, it also grants the Comptroller of the Currency the authority to prescribe regulations governing the computation and assessment of the expenses of examinations and the collection of such assessments. This is a specific task related to the broader goal of bank oversight, falling under the “Specific Authority” delegation category. The “authorized and empowered to prescribe regulations governing the computation and assessment of the expenses of examinations herein provided for and the collection of such assessments” portion is quite specific, and would fall under Hickman’s use of the term “appropriate.”

12 U.S.C. § 481 is explicitly listed as one of the authorities for 12 CFR Part 47. This indicates that the regulation is directly mandated by the statute.

The statute provides specific instructions to the agency (Comptroller of the Currency) regarding the appointment of examiners, the scope of examinations, the content of reports, and the assessment of fees.

Therefore, the regulation is authorized but not directly mandated.

While 12 U.S.C. § 481 primarily focuses on the examination of national banks, it also grants the Comptroller powers related to the oversight of bank operations and assessing fees. This section’s authority is used to justify regulations, such as 12 CFR Part 24. It is Specific Authority because 12 U.S.C § 481 allows OCC the powers to assess fees and examination of national bank operations (which encompass investments) and prescribe regulations governing the computation and assessment of the expenses of examinations herein provided for and the collection of such assessments. This has specific context towards bank operations and the scope that OCC can perform.

The regulation, 12 CFR Part 24, is explicitly authorized by 12 U.S.C. § 481, which pertains to the examination of national banks and their affiliates by the Comptroller of the Currency.

12 U.S.C. § 481 is listed in the “Authority” section of 12 CFR Part 25, demonstrating that the regulation is authorized by the statute. However, the statute does not explicitly mandate the specific regulations found in Part 25. The statute lays out the general framework for bank examinations, while the regulation specifies how certain examinations regarding community reinvestment are performed, thereby making the relationship authorized but not mandated.

The statute specifically instructs the “appropriate Federal banking agency” to review and revise regulations regarding transfers of assets with recourse.

These are not broad grants of authority; instead, they pinpoint a specific regulatory task, even using terms like “necessary for safety and soundness reasons”, which, although open-ended, are typical of Specific Authority Delegations.

The statute explicitly mandates that the appropriate Federal banking agencies review and revise their regulations relating to transfers of assets with recourse, and promulgate new regulations to better reflect credit risk exposure. This falls squarely under “directly mandated.”
