    The Farm Credit Administration (FCA) has updated their regulations to change the way Farm Credit banks report financial information about related associations in their annual financial statements. The new rule, which took effect on December 4, 2020, lets banks choose between presenting this information in two ways: either as a footnote or attached as a supplement in their reports. This regulation aims to give shareholders better access to district financial information.

    Simple Explanation

    The Farm Credit Administration made a new rule so banks can share their financial information more clearly. Now, when banks write their money reports, they can choose to add extra information about certain groups either in small notes or as extra pages, but they didn't really explain why this is better or how it might affect the banks.
