The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is issuing this rule to implement certain requirements of the Resolution Trust Corporation Completion Act of 1993. Under that law, people or entities that may have done certain acts that might have contributed to the failure of an insured institution may not buy assets of failed institutions from the FDIC. This rule establishes a self-certification process as a prerequisite to the purchase of assets from the FDIC and provides definitions of various terms in the law in order to make the limitations of the law clearer.
