Regulation: 12 CFR Part 25
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3111
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 310
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute (12 U.S.C. § 3111), in conjunction with the statutes referenced as the authority for 12 CFR Part 25 (including 12 U.S.C. §§ 3101-3111), provides the agency with broad rulemaking authority related to banking regulations without pinpointing specific regulatory tasks. The statute creates a criminal penalty applicable to any regulation created under the chapter. The agency is free to create new regulations as they see fit and as authorized by the chapter.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute (12 U.S.C. § 3111) creates a criminal penalty for violating “any regulation or order issued by the appropriate Federal banking agency under this chapter.” This implies that the agency is authorized to issue regulations under this chapter, and violating those regulations triggers the criminal penalty. However, the statute doesn’t explicitly mandate specific regulations; it simply provides a penalty for violating whatever regulations the agency chooses to issue under the broader authority of the chapter. Therefore, the relationship is authorized but not mandated.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 212
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3201
Agency: Federal Reserve System
Restrictions: 13
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 3201 defines terms used in the Depository Institution Management Interlocks Act, it does not specifically instruct the agency on a regulatory task. The definition of “appropriate Federal depository institutions regulatory agency” in subsection (6) implies a role for agencies in overseeing these institutions, but §3201 itself only lays the definitional groundwork, which enables the regulatory structure that implements the statute. Therefore it acts as a component of the General Authority for the regulatory agency.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The regulation (12 CFR Part 212) explicitly cites 12 U.S.C. 3201-3208 as its authority, making it directly mandated.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 26
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3201
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 14
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While Section 3201 provides definitions crucial for understanding the scope of the Act, it does not specifically instruct an agency to perform a specific regulatory task. The regulation cites 3201-3208, the entire act, as authority, which constitutes a general delegation of authority rather than a targeted specific task.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 3201 provides definitions which are necessary for the application and enforcement of the Depository Institution Management Interlocks Act and its implementing regulations. The regulation 12 CFR Part 26, Management Official Interlocks, is explicitly authorized by 12 U.S.C. 3201-3208 as shown in the authority citation.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 48

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 156
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute provides a broad grant of rulemaking authority to the agencies to issue rules and regulations “as each of them may deem necessary” to perform their duties and administer the chapter. While it mentions specific goals (administering the chapter, preventing evasions), it doesn’t identify specific regulatory tasks or gaps, thus fitting the “General Authority” category.

Relationship: directly mandated

12 U.S.C. § 3108(a) explicitly authorizes the Comptroller, the Board, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to issue rules, regulations, and orders to perform their duties, administer the chapter, carry out its provisions and purposes, and prevent evasions. 12 CFR Part 48 regulates retail foreign exchange transactions, and its authority cites 12 U.S.C. § 3108, indicating a direct mandate.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 8
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3108
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 17
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

12 U.S.C. § 3108(a) provides broad rulemaking authority to the Comptroller, Board, and FDIC. It does not specify particular regulatory tasks or gaps but rather empowers the agencies to issue rules and regulations they deem “necessary” to perform their duties, administer the chapter, and prevent evasions. The standard “necessary” is considered an open-ended term that is not specific. While other subsections, such as (b), are more specific to enforcement, (a) is the relevant subsection to the creation of regulations.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, specifically 12 U.S.C. § 3108(a), explicitly authorizes the Comptroller, the Board, and the FDIC to issue rules and regulations necessary to perform their duties and functions under the chapter, administer and carry out its provisions and purposes, and prevent evasions thereof. While the statute doesn’t mandate specific regulations on assessments of fees, it authorizes the agencies to issue regulations they deem necessary, which would reasonably include regulations regarding fees for examinations and investigations. 12 CFR Part 8 cites 12 U.S.C. § 3108 as an authority.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 25
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3109
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 310
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While the statute grants discretion using terms like “appropriate” and “to the extent necessary,” it specifically instructs the agencies to engage in cooperation with foreign supervisors through information disclosure and confidentiality agreements, which qualifies it as a specific authority delegation.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 3109 authorizes the specified agencies to disclose supervisory information to foreign supervisors and to agree to maintain confidentiality. It does not mandate this action, but permits it if the agency determines it is appropriate and will not prejudice U.S. interests. The regulation, 12 CFR Part 25, falls under 12 U.S.C. 3101 through 3111, which allows agencies to regulate foreign banks in the US.

Restrictions: 180
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

12 U.S.C. § 3108(a) explicitly authorizes the Comptroller, the Board, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to issue rules, regulations, and orders necessary to perform their duties and administer the chapter, but does not mandate any specific regulation.

Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 19
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 3108 mentions specific powers like subpoena power, subsection (a), which concerns rulemaking authority, provides a broad grant of authority using language like “necessary in order to perform their respective duties and functions under this chapter and to administer and carry out the provisions and purposes of this chapter and prevent evasions thereof”. This lacks specific regulatory tasks and instructions; it’s a broad mandate to regulate within the chapter’s scope.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 3108(a) explicitly “authorizes and empowers” the Comptroller, the Board, and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation to issue rules, regulations, and orders necessary to perform their duties and administer the chapter.

The use of “necessary” does not by itself make it a specific authority delegation per Kristin Hickman’s definition. It’s a broad mandate to make rules deemed necessary for the administration and enforcement of the chapter, lacking detailed instructions for regulatory action.

Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 3108
Agency: Federal Reserve System
Restrictions: 482
