Mergers, name changes, and other corporate activity

FCA is responsible for issuing and amending corporate charters to all Farm Credit System (FCS) institutions. Therefore, when institutions merge, change their names, and make other corporate changes, they must have these actions approved through FCA.

For the quarter ended October 1, 2022, there were two corporate activities:

• Farm Credit of Western Oklahoma, ACA, and its subsidiaries and Farm Credit of Enid, ACA, and its subsidiaries received preliminary approval to merge on August 15.
• AgCarolina Farm Credit, ACA, and its subsidiaries and Cape Fear Farm Credit, ACA, and its subsidiaries received preliminary approval to merge on September 29.

In addition, FCA received letters of intent to merge from the following agricultural credit associations:

• Northwest Farm Credit Services and Farm Credit West
• American AgCredit and Farm Credit of New Mexico
• AgSouth Farm Credit and Carolina Farm Credit
• Farm Credit Mid-America and Farm Credit Midsouth

In each instance, the two ACAs would merge, and their subsidiaries would merge.

For corporate changes for previous quarters, see the report archives.
