FDIC Official Signs and Advertising Requirements, False Advertising, Misrepresentation of Insured Status, and Misuse of the FDIC's Name or Logo
AGENCY:
Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
ACTION:
Final rule; delay of compliance date.
SUMMARY:
On December 20, 2023, the FDIC adopted a final rule that, among other things, amended the FDIC's sign and advertising requirements for insured depository institutions (IDIs). The amendments made by the final rule took effect on April 1, 2024; however, full compliance with the amendments was extended to January 1, 2025.
The FDIC is delaying the compliance date for the new sign and advertising requirements for IDIs in the final rule to May 1, 2025. This delay will provide additional opportunity for IDIs to establish processes and systems, and make technological updates, necessary to implement the new regulatory requirements.
DATES:
The compliance date for the amendments to subpart A of 12 CFR part 328 in the final rule published at 89 FR 3504 on January 18, 2024, is delayed to May 1, 2025.

The FDIC has continued to receive requests for additional clarity. The FDIC will continue to evaluate questions that have been received and will endeavor to make any additional potential "Questions and Answers" publicly available by November 30, 2024, to facilitate effective compliance by the May 1, 2025, compliance date.
