Abstract: The Bank Holding Company Act (BHC Act) and Bank Holding Companies and Change in Bank Control (Regulation Y) generally require a BHC to seek prior Federal Reserve approval before purchasing or redeeming its equity securities. Given that a BHC is exempt from this requirement if it meets certain financial, managerial, and supervisory standards, only a small portion of proposed stock redemptions actually require the prior approval of the Federal Reserve. There is no formal reporting form (the FR 4008 designation is for internal purposes only) and each required request for prior approval must be filed as a notification with the Reserve Bank that has direct supervisory responsibility for the BHC. The Federal Reserve uses the information provided in the redemption notice to fulfill its statutory obligation to supervise BHCs.
