On August 24, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), regulator of national banks and federal savings associations, announced that it is rescinding documents as part of its ongoing effort to develop an integrated supervisory policy platform for its regulatees.

The rescinded documents and the documents that supersede them, if any, are listed in the OCC bulletin. The reason each document is rescinded is noted as one of the following:

• Outdated – The document is no longer needed. Any attachments to the document are rescinded only as they relate to national banks and federal savings associations.
   
• Replaced – The document and any attachments are superseded by subsequent guidance.
   
• Incorporated – The document conveyed interagency guidance that was incorporated into a Comptroller’s Handbook booklet.
   
• Transmittal – The document is a cover letter that merely conveyed another document. The rescission does not change the applicability of the conveyed document. To determine the applicability of the conveyed document, please refer to the original issuer of the document.
