Abstract: 

The authors note recent bank transactions eliminating BHCs, suggesting a trend. They then discuss fiduciary duty considerations, the declining role of traditional BHC advantages, and the benefits of eliminating the FRB and SEC as federal regulators. They address equity and debt offerings by a bank without a BHC and close with a high-level summary of corporate steps required to eliminate a BHC.

Keywords: Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (“OCC”); Declining Traditional Advantages of BHCs
