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 January 1, 2023, there were five corporate activities:

• Farm Credit of Western Oklahoma, ACA, and Farm Credit of Enid, ACA, merged on November 1, 2022.
• AgCarolina Farm Credit, ACA, and Cape Fear Farm Credit, ACA, merged on January 1, 2023.
• Northwest Farm Credit Services, ACA, and Farm Credit West, ACA, merged on January 1, 2023.
• AgSouth Farm Credit, ACA, and Carolina Farm Credit, ACA, received preliminary approval to merge on December 15, 2022.
• Farm Credit Mid-America, ACA, and Farm Credit Midsouth, ACA, received preliminary approval to merge on December 15, 2022.

In addition, FCA received a letter of intent to merge from Lone Star and Ag New Mexico Farm Credit Services.

For the activities described above, the subsidiaries of each ACA would also merge with the subsidiaries of the other ACA involved.
