​​SUMMARY: The proposed rule would transfer existing parts 931 and 933 of the Federal Housing Finance Board (Finance Board) regulations, which address requirements for Federal Home Loan Bank (Bank) capital stock and capital plans, to new Part 1277 of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) regulations. The proposed rule would not make any substantive changes to these requirements, but would delete certain provisions that applied only to the one-time conversion of Bank stock to the new capital structure required by the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (GLB Act). It would also make certain clarifying changes so that the rules would more precisely reflect long-standing practices and requirements with regard to transactions in Bank stock. Most significantly, the proposed rule would add appropriate references to ‘‘former members’’ to clarify when former Bank members can be required to maintain investment in Bank capital stock after withdrawal from the Bank.
