Regulation: 12 CFR Part 349
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1813
Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 314
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute provides a definition of “deposit” to allow the Board of Directors to prescribe what is a deposit by regulation after consulting with other agencies. This is a delegation of rulemaking authority to clarify the scope of deposit insurance, but it doesn’t specify particular regulations or address a specific gap beyond defining “deposit liabilities by general usage.” This qualifies as a General Authority Delegation because it is broad rulemaking authority without specific regulatory tasks identified.

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute defines terms used in banking regulations, including those potentially involving derivatives. The relationship is related, as accurate definitions are crucial for effective regulation, but the statute itself doesn’t mandate or authorize the specific derivative regulations in 12 CFR Part 349.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 792
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1795f
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 167
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While the statute includes a list of enumerated powers, subsection (a)(2) grants the Board the ability to “prescribe rules and regulations to carry out this subchapter.” This is broad rulemaking authority that isn’t tied to a specific regulatory task, but rather encompasses the entirety of the subchapter. Additionally, (a)(17) states the Board can “exercise such incidental powers as shall be necessary or requisite to enable it to carry out effectively the purposes for which the facility is incorporated”, giving broad power to the Board.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, 12 U.S.C. § 1795f, authorizes the Board (on behalf of the Facility) to take certain actions. The regulation, 12 CFR Part 792, implements procedures for information requests and security, which are related to the Board’s general authorities but not directly mandated by 1795f. 1795f is listed as authority, so this classification fits best.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 304
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1811
Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 13
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The statute grants the FDIC broad powers to fulfill its mandate of insuring deposits and managing failed institutions. This is further demonstrated in the section establishing the Asset Disposition Division. While it specifies a task (asset disposition), it’s a broad goal within the broader objective of ensuring the stability of the financial system. This qualifies it as a General Authority delegation because it establishes the FDIC with broad rulemaking authority without identifying specific regulatory tasks.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The regulation 12 CFR Part 304 directly implements the statute 12 U.S. Code § 1811, as the statute establishes the FDIC, which has the authority to prescribe regulations relating to deposit insurance, forms, instructions, and reports, as granted by “the powers hereinafter granted.”

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 354
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1811
Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 19
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

12 U.S.C. 1811(a) provides a broad grant of authority to the FDIC to insure deposits and exercise powers. While it directs the FDIC to insure deposits, it doesn’t provide specific instructions on how to regulate different types of banking institutions to achieve this, particularly regarding industrial banks. The statute broadly grants the FDIC powers, leaving the regulatory specifics undefined.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. 1811(a) directly mandates the establishment of the FDIC, while the regulation (12 CFR Part 354) addresses industrial banks, a specific subset of entities insured by the FDIC. Therefore, the regulation is directly mandated by the statute, as the FDIC needs to create regulations to fulfill its duty.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 240
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1813
Agency: Federal Reserve System
Restrictions: 170
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

12 U.S.C. 1813(q) provides a comprehensive definition of “appropriate Federal banking agency,” which informs which agency is responsible for what institution, while (l)(5) of the same statute provides broad authority to the Board of Directors to define deposit liabilities. The statute does not identify specific regulatory tasks beyond the general instruction to define what qualifies as a ‘deposit’. This falls under a general authority delegation as the Board of Directors are given broad rulemaking authority to define deposit liabilities. While defining deposit liabilities may be necessary, appropriate, or reasonable it is still a board area of authority.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, specifically 12 U.S.C. 1813(l)(5), authorizes the Board of Directors, after consulting with other agencies, to prescribe regulations regarding deposit liabilities. While the statute defines “deposit”, it authorizes the Board to further define and prescribe what constitutes a deposit liability by regulation. The specific regulation cited (12 CFR Part 240) doesn’t flow directly or mandatorily from a particular definition within 12 USC 1813, but the general authority to define “deposit liabilities” is authorized.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 303
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1813
Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 479
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1813 is primarily a definitional statute, it shapes the scope of the regulatory authority by establishing what entities and activities fall under the FDIC’s purview. The reference to 12 U.S.C. 1813 in the regulation’s authority implies that the regulation helps to implement those definitions in procedures, therefore this is a specific authority delegation.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The regulation, 12 CFR Part 303, explicitly cites 12 U.S.C. 1813 as one of its authorities. This indicates a direct mandate, as the regulation is implementing and detailing procedures related to the definitions laid out in the statute.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 702
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790d
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 212
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While it grants broad rulemaking authority, the statute provides specific instructions on what the regulations must address: a system of prompt corrective action, consideration of cooperative character, a comparable system to 1831o, and a system for new credit unions with enumerated criteria. These specific regulatory tasks push it into the “Specific Authority” category.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute explicitly mandates that the Board “shall, by regulation, prescribe a system of prompt corrective action.” This indicates a direct mandate.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 747
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790d
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 479
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While it provides broad rulemaking authority, the statute explicitly instructs the agency on specific regulatory tasks and identifies the regulatory gaps that need to be addressed. This includes prescribing a system of prompt corrective action for all insured credit unions, as well as a separate system for new credit unions, defining capital categories, establishing risk-based net worth requirements, outlining earnings-retention requirements, and creating a process for net worth restoration plans. It also uses open-ended terms like “appropriate restrictions and requirements”

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute directly mandates the creation of regulations for prompt corrective action for insured credit unions and new credit unions. Subsection (b) “Regulations required” uses the word “shall” indicating a direct mandate.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790e
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute provides the NCUA Board with specific instructions to establish and administer the Stabilization Fund, to make assessments related to expenditures and repayments, to borrow from the Treasury, and to invest the Fund’s assets. These are not simply broad grants of authority but directives to execute specific tasks related to stabilizing corporate credit unions.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute directly mandates the creation and administration of the Temporary Corporate Credit Union Stabilization Fund. The regulation references 12 U.S.C. 1781-1790 and 1790d in its authority section, encompassing 12 U.S.C. 1790e, directly tying the regulation to the statute that mandates requirements for insurance with relation to the fund.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 725
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1795f
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 88
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 12 U.S.C. 1795f grants broad powers to the Board, 1795f(a)(2) specifically instructs the agency regarding the regulatory task of implementing the subchapter through rulemaking.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. 1795f(a)(2) explicitly authorizes the Board to “prescribe rules and regulations to carry out this subchapter,” which is the basis of authority cited for 12 CFR Part 725.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 790
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1795f
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 5
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While the statute provides a list of specific powers, the broad authority to “prescribe rules and regulations to carry out this subchapter” and “prescribe the manner in which the general business of the Facility shall be conducted” constitutes a general delegation. The statute gives the Board discretion to create regulations necessary to implement the powers granted in the statute. This fits the description of providing broad rulemaking authority without specific regulatory tasks identified.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1795f authorizes the Board to prescribe rules and regulations to carry out the subchapter. While the statute empowers the Board, it doesn’t mandate the specific regulations outlined in 12 CFR Part 790. Therefore, the regulations are authorized but not directly mandated.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1790 addresses non-discrimination, it does not identify any specific regulatory tasks for the agency. It provides a broad policy statement about ensuring equal opportunities for all credit unions, but it does not tell the agency how to accomplish this through regulation. The related section 12 U.S.C. 1781-1790 is cited and covers topics from the establishment of the insurance fund to the administration of conservatorships and receiverships.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1790 is explicitly cited as an authority for 12 CFR Part 741. Therefore, the relationship is authorized but not mandated. The statute outlines a general policy of non-discrimination which the regulation helps to implement through specific requirements for insurance. The statute does not explicitly mandate any regulation, but authorizes regulations related to credit unions to provide equal opportunity.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790a
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While the statute grants broad authority to oversee insured credit unions, the specific provisions concerning the definition of terms like “troubled condition” and “senior executive officer” and waiving the prior notice requirement in extraordinary circumstances constitute specific regulatory tasks, directing the agency on what to define and how to implement certain exceptions. Congress identified particular regulatory gaps.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

Subsection (f) of 12 U.S.C. § 1790a explicitly mandates that the Board “shall prescribe by regulation a definition for the terms ‘troubled condition’ and ‘senior executive officer'”. Also, subsection (c)(1) states “The Board may prescribe by regulation conditions under which the prior notice requirement of subsection (a) may be waived in the event of extraordinary circumstances.” Subsection (d)(2) states that any notice submitted to the board shall include “…such other information as the Board may prescribe by regulation.” Given that the statute explicitly directs the agency to issue regulations, the relationship is directly mandated. The regulation cites 12 U.S.C. 1790 as authority (but not 1790a, specifically). However, 1781-1790 is listed.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 747
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790a
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 479
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically directs the Board to define certain terms (“troubled condition,” “senior executive officer”) and to prescribe conditions for waiving the prior notice requirement in extraordinary circumstances. This constitutes a specific regulatory task.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1790a(f) states, “The Board shall prescribe by regulation a definition for the terms ‘troubled condition’ and ‘senior executive officer’ for purposes of subsection (a).” This is a direct mandate to create regulations defining specific terms. Section 1790a(c) also states “The Board may prescribe by regulation conditions under which the prior notice requirement of subsection (a) may be waived in the event of extraordinary circumstances.”

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790b
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute grants the NCUA Board enforcement authority over the employee protection provisions. It specifies that a complainant must file a copy of the complaint with the Board. Subsection (c) empowers the district court to order the credit union or administration to “take other appropriate actions to remedy any past discrimination,” indicating that the Board, and potentially NCUA through its administrative structure, has the authority to take certain actions although these are triggered by a court finding. This fits the definition of specific authority because it instructs the agency on a particular task (enforcement of whistleblower protections) using terms like “appropriate.”

Relationship: related but neither directly mandated nor explicitly authorized
Beta

The statute establishes whistleblower protections for credit union employees. While 12 CFR Part 741 pertains to the requirements for insurance, including regulations for credit unions, it does not explicitly address whistleblower protections. The statute likely influences the general regulatory environment, but it neither directly mandates nor is explicitly authorized by the regulation.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1790c
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically directs the Board to pay rewards under the “same circumstances and subject to the same limitations” as another statute (12 U.S. Code § 1831j). This is a specific regulatory task, even though it incorporates external limitations. The phrase “under the same circumstances and subject to the same limitations” creates a direct connection between the implementation of the reward programs, providing a distinct and defined gap to regulate within.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute states “The Board may pay rewards,” indicating authorization but not a mandate to create regulations. The statute does not demand that the Board must create a program, but allows the agency to do so.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 741
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789a
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 230
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations to enable credit unions to function as depositaries of public money and fiscal agents. While the phrase “as may be necessary” is open-ended, it is directly tied to the specific task of enabling credit unions to fulfill these roles. Therefore, it falls under Specific Authority.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute (12 U.S.C. § 1789a) explicitly authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations “as may be necessary to enable such credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States.” Part 741 of 12 CFR contains regulations pertaining to the requirements for insurance of credit unions, a factor directly related to their function as depositaries of public money. Therefore, the relationship is directly mandated.

Regulation: 31 CFR Part 202
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789a
Agency: Fiscal Service
Restrictions: 17
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically directs the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations to enable credit unions to become depositaries and fiscal agents. This isn’t a broad delegation of rulemaking authority on any topic, but rather a specific task assigned related to the functioning of credit unions as fiscal agents. The explicit direction to prescribe regulations “as may be necessary to enable such credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States” fits Hickman’s “Specific Authority” delegation which anticipates open-ended terms like “necessary”.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute, 12 U.S.C. § 1789a, explicitly authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations necessary to enable insured credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States. Thus, the regulation, 31 CFR Part 202, is directly mandated by the statute.

Regulation: 31 CFR Part 203
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789a
Agency: Fiscal Service
Restrictions: 51
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically instructs the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations to enable credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States. This falls under the “Specific Authority Delegations” category as it is a clear regulatory task.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute, 12 U.S.C. § 1789a, explicitly authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to “prescribe such regulations as may be necessary to enable such credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States.” The regulation, 31 CFR Part 203, is explicitly authorized by and implements this statutory mandate, among other statutes. Therefore, the relationship is directly mandated.

Regulation: 31 CFR Part 208
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789a
Agency: Fiscal Service
Restrictions: 18
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

Regulation: 31 CFR Part 380
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789a
Agency: Fiscal Service
Restrictions: 0
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute uses “necessary” when authorizing the Secretary of Treasury to write regulations. This fits within Hickman’s delegation of “Clearly instructs an agency on a specific regulatory task or gap, even using open-ended terms like “appropriate,” “reasonable,” or “necessary.”

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute 12 U.S.C. § 1789a explicitly authorizes the Secretary of the Treasury to prescribe regulations necessary to enable insured credit unions to become depositaries of public money and fiscal agents of the United States. Therefore, the regulation (31 CFR Part 380), insofar as it relates to collateral acceptability and valuation for these purposes, is directly mandated.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 760
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 72
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While some sections of the statute, such as (a)(8) concerning examinations and reports from insured credit unions, could be construed as specific authority, subsection (a)(11) which states the board may “prescribe such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this subchapter” is a general delegation of rulemaking authority. It doesn’t identify specific regulatory tasks or gaps, but rather allows the Board broad discretion to address issues as they arise and as the Board deems necessary.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1789 grants the Board broad authority to prescribe rules and regulations as it deems necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of the subchapter. While the statute doesn’t directly mandate the specific flood hazard regulations found in 12 CFR Part 760, it authorizes the Board to create regulations necessary to carry out the broader purposes of the subchapter related to insured credit unions. The flood insurance regulations fall under the umbrella of ensuring the financial safety and soundness of insured credit unions, which is a permissible interpretation of the statute.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 790
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 5
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1789 provides several specific grants of power to the Board, including the ability to make contracts, sue and be sued, and appoint officers, subsection (a)(11) grants broad rulemaking authority to “prescribe such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this subchapter.” This broad grant, lacking specific direction regarding what to regulate, qualifies as a General Authority delegation under Hickman’s framework.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1789 is listed as an authority for 12 CFR Part 790, meaning that the regulation is authorized by the statute. However, the statute does not explicitly mandate the specific regulation outlined in Part 790.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 791
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 72
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While the statute grants specific powers, subsection (a)(11), which authorizes the Board to prescribe rules and regulations, is a broad grant of authority to carry out the subchapter’s provisions, without explicitly outlining specific regulatory tasks. Thus, it falls into the “General Authority” category.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute authorizes the Board to prescribe rules and regulations as it deems necessary or appropriate, but doesn’t mandate specific regulations.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 792
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1789
Agency: National Credit Union Administration
Restrictions: 167
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1789 grants specific powers to the Board (like making contracts, suing/being sued), subsection (a)(11) is a broad grant of rulemaking authority. It empowers the Board to “prescribe such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this subchapter.” This is a generalized delegation because it allows the agency to create rules necessary to implement the entire subchapter, rather than focusing on a specific regulatory gap or problem.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1789 is explicitly listed in the “Authority” section for 12 CFR Part 792, indicating that the statute directly mandates or authorizes the regulations within Part 792. Because § 1789(a)(11) allows the board to “prescribe such rules and regulations as it may deem necessary or appropriate to carry out the provisions of this subchapter” the relationship is directly mandated.
