SR 22-10
CA 22-10
December 19, 2022

TO THE OFFICER IN CHARGE OF SUPERVISION
AT EACH FEDERAL RESERVE BANK

SUBJECT: Inactive Supervisory Guidance

Applicability: This letter applies to all banking organizations supervised by the Federal
Reserve, including those with $10 billion or less in consolidated assets.

The purpose of this letter is to announce that Federal Reserve staff has made certain
previously issued Supervision and Regulation (SR) and Supervision and Regulation and
Consumer Affairs (SR/CA) letters inactive. The SR and SR/CA letters identified in the
attachment have been determined to be inactive and no longer applicable to the Federal
Reserve’s supervision program. The attachment also explains when and why each letter has been
made inactive. In many cases, the information transmitted in these letters represented a point-in-
time announcement, has become outdated, or has been superseded by subsequent regulations,
policies, and guidance. In some instances, letters were made inactive because more
comprehensive guidance on the topic is available in the Commercial Bank Examination Manual
or the Bank Holding Company Supervision Manual or another document, as noted in the
attachment.
Questions or comments about the inactive status of any of these letters or concerns that
they may contain supervisory guidance of continuing relevance may be sent via the Board’s
public website.1
