Federal Advocacy
NBA meets virtually and in DC for visits with Nevada's Senate and House delegates.
State of Nevada
NBA works with state legislators during session years and with interim committees in off years. In additional to supporting efforts to promote financial literacy, affordable housing and economic development, we work to ensure Nevada is an environment where banks can provide the best products and services to customers.
Thank you to our GR Committee members for all of your work during session. NBA will be working closely with interim Nevada's legislative committees throughout the second half of 2023 and during 2024.

Regulatory
Nevada Bankers engage with State and federal regulators regularly. Member feedback is a critical piece of helping regulators with their job of providing effective, safe and meaningful oversight. In addition lt irregular meetings with our State FID, NBA works closely with federal regulataors and also offers members a chance to engage in person during the Fall DC visit.

Compliance Alliance Question of the Week
Q: For Regulation O purposes, does our Board of Directors have to submit annual personal financial statements?
A: Strictly speaking, there is not an explicit requirement under Regulation O to have any insiders - or the board - within scope submit an annual personal financial statement; such a decision is generally going to be more of a safety and soundness consideration, and a determination that is reliant upon on the bank’s own internal / investor guidelines.
But – acknowledging that the spirit and intention of Regulation O is to prevent the preferential treatment of a bank’s insiders - it is important to keep in mind that if the bank requires annual personal financial statements from other "non-insider" borrowers on similar credit transactions, then that same requirement should likely be imposed equally to any insider within scope.
If ever in doubt, Compliance Hub’s Regulation O Toolkit is packed with resources that can help your bank navigate the requirements and best practices as they relate to extensions of credits to insiders.

Review Alliance – DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know that a closed-end mortgage loan or open-end line of credit that is primarily for a business or commercial purpose is HMDA reportable if it meets the definition of a home improvement loan, home purchase loan, or a refinancing?
- For example, a closed-end mortgage loan to improve an attorney’s office that is located in her single-family dwelling is reportable.
