Easing Regulations: Tailoring Rules to Financial Institutions' Risk Profiles.
This law mandates federal financial agencies to customize new regulations based on the actual risk and business model of financial institutions, particularly smaller ones. The goal is to reduce compliance costs and burdens, enabling local banks and credit unions to offer more flexible services and loans to their customers. It also introduces simplified reporting for community banks.
