On behalf of the Subchapter S Bank Association we have sent a letter to Chair Yellen, Comptroller Curry and Chairman Gruenberg expressing our continued concern regarding the unequal treatment depository institutions and their holding companies that elect to be taxed under Subchapter S of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) receive compared to their peers taxed under Subchapter C, especially when considered in the context of the capital conservation buffer rules presently contained in Basel III and regulatory dividend restriction policy.
