Neil Milner CAE
President and CEO
Conference of State Bank Supervisors, Inc.
2. CONFERENCE OF STATE BANK SUPERVISORS
Champions of the State Banking System
Statement of Principles
State System of Banking
> Our overriding goal is to maintain the state system as
the charter of choice for community, multi-state,
international and de novo financial institutions.
> The states must retain their role as the front-line,
grass-roots regulator for the financial services
industry.
> As state bank supervisors, we work at both the state
and federal level for focused and efficient bank
supervision.
> Federal regulatory preemption of state laws
endangers the dual banking system and consumer
protection.
> Through CSBS, the collective states have a single
voice with Congress and federal policy makers and an
organization for maintaining a pool of well-trained,
focused banking regulation professionals.
3. CONFERENCE OF STATE BANK SUPERVISORS
Champions of the State Banking System
Statement of Principles (cont.)
Safety & Soundness of Financial Institutions
and the Banking System
> We believe that a significant goal of bank supervision
and examination is to assure the safety and
soundness of individual financial institutions and the
overall banking system.
> Cooperation between state and federal regulators
strengthens bank supervision, the financial services
industry, and the economy.
> We support financial independence and budget
autonomy for state banking departments as they
pursue excellence in supervision.
4. CONFERENCE OF STATE BANK SUPERVISORS
Champions of the State Banking System
Statement of Principles (cont.)
Compliance with Banking and Consumer Laws
> We believe that bank supervision at the state level
provides regulators that are accessible, who
understand state laws, are in tune with the local
economy, and knowledgeable about the consumer.
> We agree that for the supervision of interstate banks,
the home state banking supervisor should be the
primary regulator.
5. CONFERENCE OF STATE BANK SUPERVISORS
Champions of the State Banking System
Statement of Principles (cont.)
Promoting Economic Development
> We recognize that community banks, most of which
are state-chartered, drive the economic success of
Main Street America.
> We support the authority of our states to empower
banks to develop new services that serve the best
interests of our citizens.

Guidelines
11. Risk Based Capital: Basel IA
> CSBS supported direction of the initial
proposal
> Current proposal scaled back
significantly
> Residential mortgage loans risk
weighted by LTV
> Risk Ratings for external credit ratings
Little applicability in the loan
portfolio for most banks
> Short-term commitments risk weighted
with a 10% conversion factor
12. Risk Based Capital: Basel IA
> No changes…
Small business loans
Multifamily residential loans
Non-current loans
Commercial real estate exposures
> Will provide some appropriate relief to
community banks.
> Opens a door to incremental changes –
positive and negative.
DO NOT DISCOUNT ITEMS IN THE ANPR –
PERHAPS A LOOK INTO THE FUTURE.
> The proposal is an opt-in. Banks can choose to
remain under the current rules.
CSBS: Not worth the effort!

17. Commercial Real Estate Guidance
> Issued by agencies on December 6, 2006
> Two key thresholds as % of Capital
100% Construction & Land Development
300% CLD, multi-family & CRE
**Thresholds do not apply to OTS supervised institutions.
> Expectations
Stress testing
Market analysis
Underwriting according to secondary market standards
More Capital!
> We must be vigilant in ensuring the
guidance is implemented as stated
Thresholds are not limits
Does not discourage CRE lending
> Examiner training will be key
18. Mortgage Products: Nontraditional
Federal financial agencies released their final guidance
on September 29.
CSBS/AARMR released parallel guidance on November 14
Applies to state-licensed mortgage providers
who were not covered by the interagency
guidance.
Closely mirrors interagency guidance, but
without provisions that are inapplicable to
mortgage providers (portfolio management,
capital levels, etc.)
As of April 11, 31 states plus D.C. have adopted the
guidance
19. Mortgage Products: Sub-Prime
Mortgage Products:
Nontraditional
Consumer advocacy groups and Congress have
expressed concern with 2/28 & 3/27 ARMS.
Fixed at above market rate for 2 or 3 years, re-price each 6 months after initial period.
Designed to “repair credit.”
Payment shock after initial period is significant.
Policy Statement:
1. Qualify customers at full-indexed, amortizing rate.
2. Timely, clear disclosure
3. Balanced marketing
4. The fine line between sub-prime & predatory!
CSBS will draft parallel guidance similar to NTM.
20. Risk Based Assessments
Components
> Weighted CAMELS
(25%, 20%, 25%, 10%, 10%, 10%)
> Six Financial Ratios
> Long-term debt issuer rating
Well Capitalized banks pay between 5 and
7 basis points (others pay between 10
and 43).
Well Capitalized de novo banks pay 7 basis
points for five years, beginning in 2010.
**Know your ratings definitions – they
now have a financial impact!**

October 13, 2006 PL 109-351)
27. Regulatory Burden Reduction
> Legislation passed the Congress as S. 2856 and was
signed into law on October 13, 2006, as P.L. 109-351.
What CSBS called for in testimony
> Focus on Community Banking (Communities First Act, Rep.
Ryun, R-KS) Several provisions were added to the House Bill)
> Flexibility for state chartered Federal Reserve member banks
> Review of Riegle-Neal interstate branching
> IRS re-interpretation on tax status of LLCs
> State vote on FFIEC
> Interstate supervision policy
> Review of federal “regulatory” preemption policy
The law includes:
28. State Vote on FFIEC
> The State Liaison Committee’s role was one of
advising the FFIEC on issues
> When it came time to vote or a member
called for an “executive session,” the state
groups had to sit on their hands
> We asked for a real vote on the FFIEC
> This is now LAW and the State Liaison
Committee now has a VOTE on the FFIEC
29. Extended Exam Cycle
> Extend 18 month examination cycle to well
capitalized, well managed banks under $500
million (up from $250 million on old law).
> It has been suggested that the Federal Deposit
Insurance Fund would be alive and well even if
all banks under $500 million failed…
> Due to a drafting error in S. 2856, the 18
month exam cycle did not apply for certain
well-managed, well-capitalized institutions
with “good” ratings. The Congress passed
H.R. 6345 during the lame duck session to
include the “good” rated institutions.

Supreme Court Cert. pending)
