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. The following information describes corporate changes that occurred in the quarter that ended on March 31, 2018.
Note: FCA views an agricultural credit association (ACA) and its production credit association (PCA) and federal land credit association (FLCA) subsidiaries as a single entity for most regulatory purposes.
Name Change Takes Effect
On November 8, 2017, FCA approved the request to change the name of Progressive Farm Credit Services, ACA, and its subsidiaries, to Farm Credit Southeast Missouri. The change took effect on January 1, 2018.
Below is the number of banks and associations in the FCS, how they are classified, and how their numbers have changed over the past three months.
Also below, FCA board approvals of FCS corporate applications for a summary of corporate activity from January 1, 2018 – April 1, 2018.
