The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) is delaying the full compliance deadline for certain new requirements on how insured banks display membership signs and ads, especially on digital platforms like ATMs and websites. Originally, banks had until May 1, 2025, to comply with these updates, but now they have until March 1, 2026. This delay allows the FDIC time to review feedback on potential issues with implementing these requirements, aiming to prevent consumer confusion. The FDIC plans to propose updates to the rules based on this feedback.

The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has proposed a rule change aimed at accelerating arbitration proceedings for those who qualify due to age or health conditions. Under the proposal, individuals aged 70 or older or those with a serious health condition can request quicker processing of their cases to ensure they can participate meaningfully in the arbitration. FINRA aims to shorten the arbitration timeline to approximately ten months, compared to the standard process which can take much longer. The change is intended to ensure fairer outcomes for individuals who may otherwise face difficulties participating due to health or age-related issues.
