    Reading Time:about a minute or two

    In the Federal Register from December 26, 2024, a notice was published by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, originally under the title "Notice of Proposals To Engage in or To Acquire Companies Engaged in Permissible Nonbanking Activities." This has been corrected to "Formations of, Acquisitions by, and Mergers of Bank Holding Companies." The correction clarifies that the company involved applied to become a bank holding company or acquire control of one under the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956. It also corrects that entities referred to as savings and loan holding companies are actually bank holding companies. The comment period for the public remains open until January 27, 2025.

    Simple Explanation

    The Federal Reserve is fixing some mistakes they made in a December notice. They want to let everyone know that they are talking about banks joining together or buying each other, not talking about other kinds of businesses.

    The Federal Reserve System has received applications under the Change in Bank Control Act to acquire shares of a bank or bank holding company. Specifically, the Petrie Grandchildren Trust and related entities want to retain and acquire voting shares of Merchants Bancorp and Merchants Bank of Indiana in Carmel, Indiana. The public can view and comment on these applications, but comments need to be received by April 8, 2025, and may be disclosed to the public. The Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago is handling the applications, and comments can be submitted electronically or by mail.

    Simple Explanation

    The Federal Reserve is looking at whether certain people, like a group called the Petrie Grandchildren Trust, can buy shares in a bank called Merchants Bank of Indiana. People can say what they think about this, as long as they do it by a specific date, but they should be careful not to share any private information they want to keep secret.
