Regulation: 12 CFR Part 192
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 311
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1463(a)(2) does specifically allow the Comptroller to prescribe regulations, it does so by stating the regulations must be “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” and does not direct the agency to address a specific task or gap. This is considered a General Authority Delegation under Hickman’s framework.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1463 is cited in the “Authority” section for 12 CFR Part 192, indicating that the statute authorizes the regulation, but does not explicitly mandate it. The regulation addresses conversions from mutual to stock form, and the statute provides the Comptroller with the authority to prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations as the Comptroller deems appropriate, thereby authorizing the regulation.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 155
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 5
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. 1463(a)(2) provides rulemaking authority and is cited in the regulation’s authority note, it is a broad grant of power to issue regulations deemed “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” rather than a specific regulatory task. Therefore, it falls under the category of General Authority.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S. Code § 1463(a)(2) states “The Comptroller may prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter.” While this is an authorization, it is not a direct mandate. The agency is not explicitly directed to make regulations about electronic operations.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 157

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 1
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 12 U.S.C. 1463 provides broad authority, it also contains specific directives, like examination and ensuring safe and sound operation. Regulations on deposit accounts directly support this function of ensuring safety and soundness, thereby addressing a specific regulatory gap.

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 38
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

The statute specifically mentions the agency’s authority to prescribe regulations regarding the issuance of securities, including the form and maturity of those securities. Therefore, based on Hickman’s framework, this is a Specific Authority Delegation, as it addresses a clear regulatory gap.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S. Code § 1463(h) directly mandates the Comptroller to approve the form of securities issued by savings associations. 12 CFR Part 16 implements these directives by setting forth the disclosure rules for securities offerings by savings associations. Therefore, the regulation is directly mandated by the statute. 12 U.S. Code § 1463(a)(2) states “The Comptroller may prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter.”

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 160

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 80
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While some subsections of 12 U.S.C. § 1463, such as (b) regarding accounting standards and (e)(5) regarding lotteries, provide more specific direction, subsection (a)(2) broadly authorizes the Comptroller to prescribe regulations “as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter.” This is a broad delegation without specifying particular regulatory tasks.

12 U.S.C. 1463 is directly cited as the authority for 12 CFR Part 160.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 161
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 7
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While subsection (a)(2) provides a general grant of authority (“may prescribe regulations… appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter”), several other subsections, like (b)(1) requiring uniform accounting standards, (e)(5) on lottery enforcement, and (h) on security forms, provide specific instructions for regulatory action. These specific directives place the statute under Specific Authority Delegation.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

The statute explicitly mandates and authorizes the Comptroller and the Corporation to prescribe regulations concerning savings associations, their examination, safe and sound operation, and accounting standards, thereby directly mandating a regulatory relationship. For example, subsection (b)(1) states the Comptroller “shall, by regulation, prescribe uniform accounting and disclosure standards.”

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 143
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 3
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

Although section (a)(2) provides a general grant of authority to prescribe regulations as “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter,” several other subsections give the Comptroller very specific direction. For example, subsection (b)(1) mandates that the Comptroller “shall, by regulation, prescribe uniform accounting and disclosure standards” and subsection (e)(5) mandates the Comptroller to prescribe regulations needed to enforce that subsection. These are specific directives.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 144
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 27
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While § 1463 does address specific areas (accounting, lotteries), the grant of authority in subsection (a)(2) “The Comptroller may prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” is a broad grant of authority to regulate in furtherance of the chapter’s purposes, thus qualifying as general authority. The regulation at 12 CFR Part 144 addresses communication, which falls under general operation, and the broadness of “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” supports this categorization.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1463 is listed under the Authority section of 12 CFR Part 144, but does not explicitly mandate regulations regarding communication between members. It authorizes the comptroller to create regulations but does not require them.

Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 5
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

The primary delegation, in subsection (a)(2), uses the language “as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter,” indicating a broad delegation without specifying particular regulatory tasks beyond the general purpose of the chapter.

While 12 U.S.C. § 1463(a)(2) provides a general grant of authority, it also specifically directs the Comptroller to issue regulations pertaining to the examination, safe and sound operation of savings associations. 12 CFR Part 150 is consistent with these aims, relating to fiduciary powers of federal savings associations.

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 96
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

12 U.S.C. § 1463 outlines specific areas like examination, safe operation, accounting standards, lottery participation, and security issuance for savings associations. The regulation (12 CFR Part 151) addresses recordkeeping and confirmation requirements for securities transactions, which directly relates to the comptroller’s powers to prescribe regulations to ensure the safe and sound operation of savings associations and to carry out the purposes of the chapter, specifically section (h) which deals with the “form and maturity of securities”. While “appropriate” is used to define regulation with respect to “purposes of this chapter” there are several other instances of “specific authority delegations”.

Relationship: directly mandated

The regulation 12 CFR Part 151 explicitly cites 12 U.S.C. 1463 in its authority section, indicating a direct mandate for its creation and enforcement.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 100
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 0
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While some subsections provide more specific direction (e.g., lottery ticket activities), the bulk of the authority granted by 12 U.S.C. § 1463 provides broad rulemaking authority related to the “safe and sound operation” and regulation of savings associations without enumerating specific regulatory tasks beyond those described in the statue. The language “as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” reflects this broad delegation.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

While certain aspects like accounting standards are directly mandated in (b), the overall regulation of savings associations is authorized but not mandated by the statute. The statute grants the Comptroller discretion using terms like “may prescribe regulations” and “as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate.”

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 101
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 29
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While subsection (a)(2) of the statute contains broad language (“as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter”), other subsections provide much more specific direction, like subsection (b) which “shall, by regulation, prescribe uniform accounting and disclosure standards.” Also, subsection (e)(5) “shall prescribe such regulations as may be necessary to provide for enforcement of this subsection and to prevent any evasion of any provision of this subsection”. These are not merely broad grants of authority, but specific directives, putting it in the “Specific Authority” category.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. 1463 is listed as a source of authority for 12 CFR Part 101. This implies the statute directly mandates or at least authorizes the regulation. Further, Part 101 relates to the treatment of covered savings associations and 12 USC 1463 concerns the supervision of savings associations, demonstrating a direct relationship.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 11
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 14
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. 1463 mentions regulations, it does so in a very broad manner, allowing the agency (Comptroller) to issue regulations “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” and regarding examination and safe operation. This gives the agency a lot of discretion.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. 1463 is explicitly listed in the “Authority” section of 12 CFR Part 11, meaning the regulation is directly mandated by the statute.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 14
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 47
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While specific subsections (like (b) regarding accounting standards and (e)(5) regarding lottery activities) provide more directed tasks, the primary grant of authority in (a)(2) is broad: The Comptroller may prescribe regulations “as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter”. This falls under the “General Authority” categorization because it gives broad rulemaking authority without tying it to a specific task beyond achieving the overall goals of the chapter. Even though there are more directed mandates within 1463 (a)(5) regarding lottery tickets, I am classifying the delegation category based on (a)(2) since that provides the more general authority to prescribe regulations to carry out the chapter’s purposes.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1463(a)(2) states: “The Comptroller may prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter.” This clearly authorizes the comptroller to issue regulations, but does not mandate it.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 141
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1463
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 0
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 1463(a)(2) uses the phrase “appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter,” which sounds like a broad grant of power, this is an example of the open-ended terms that Hickman identifies as part of “Specific Authority Delegations”. The statute specifically instructs the agency on a regulatory task, which is to ensure the safe and sound operations and regulations of savings associations, including defining terms relevant to these operations. The regulation defines key terms relevant to the safe and sound operation of Federal Saving Associations such as loans, commercial paper, and dwelling unit.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1463(a)(2) states “The Comptroller may prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter.” Furthermore, the listed authority for 12 CFR Part 141 explicitly cites 12 U.S.C. 1463 as statutory authority. Thus, the regulations are directly mandated by the statute, as definitions are necessary to carry out the purpose of the chapter and the statute authorizes regulations.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 47
Authorizing Statute: 12 U.S. Code § 1462a
Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 45
Delegation Category: Specific Authority checkmark icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1462a grants the “appropriate Federal banking agency” broad powers inherited from the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, it also operates in conjunction with, and is further defined by, the Dodd-Frank Act. The Dodd-Frank Act, referenced in § 1462a(a), provides a more specific regulatory task related to financial stability and resolution, which the agency is instructed to implement. Therefore, though broad in isolation, in context this statute delegates authority tied to addressing a defined problem (financial stability) using the powers formerly held by the FHLBB.

Relationship: directly mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1462a is explicitly listed as an authority for 12 CFR Part 47, which implements mandatory contractual stay requirements for qualified financial contracts. This demonstrates a direct mandate.

Restrictions: 936
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

12 U.S.C. § 1462a grants broad powers to the “appropriate Federal banking agency” by transferring powers previously held by the Federal Home Loan Bank Board, and allows for the administration of provisions of law. The statute does not specify how the agency should use these powers to regulate “corporate activities” covered in Part 5. This indicates a general delegation of authority.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, specifically 12 U.S.C. § 1462a, is cited as authority for 12 CFR Part 5. While the statute doesn’t mandate the specific rules outlined in the regulation, it authorizes the “appropriate Federal banking agency” to exercise powers related to banking, which the regulation then implements. Therefore, the regulation is authorized but not directly mandated.

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 4
Delegation Category: General Authority sword icon

While 12 U.S.C. § 1463 touches on various aspects of savings associations, the authorization to “prescribe regulations with respect to savings associations, as the Comptroller determines to be appropriate to carry out the purposes of this chapter” is a broad grant of authority without specific instructions related to municipal securities dealers. It empowers the Comptroller to make rules deemed appropriate within the chapter’s objectives, fitting the General Authority delegation.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. § 1463 is listed as an authority for 12 CFR Part 10. The statute authorizes the Comptroller to prescribe regulations for savings associations to carry out the purposes of the chapter, but it does not mandate the specific regulation of municipal securities dealers.

Agency: Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
Restrictions: 152

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

The statute, 12 U.S.C. § 1462a, grants powers to the “appropriate Federal banking agency,” and the regulation, 12 CFR Part 390, implements some of these powers. While the statute provides the authority, it does not mandate that the agency create specific regulations. The agency is authorized, but not required, to issue these regulations.

Regulation: 12 CFR Part 4

Agency: Comptroller of the Currency
Restrictions: 105

While the statute references specific acts (Dodd-Frank, FIRREA) and areas (state homestead laws), it broadly delegates power to the “appropriate Federal banking agency” encompassing all powers vested in the Federal Home Loan Bank Board before FIRREA that were not explicitly transferred. The statute does not explicitly instruct the agency to create rules or regulations regarding a specific gap. Rather, it provides the agency the discretion to operate within the confines of existing (or transferred) power.

Relationship: authorized but not mandated
Beta

12 U.S.C. 1462a is listed in the authority section for 12 CFR Part 41, which suggests that the statute authorizes the regulation, but it does not explicitly mandate the regulation’s creation.
