  <description><![CDATA[ The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) is 
finalizing the proposed rule published on April 23, 2003 amending our 
regulations pertaining to the foreign operations of national banks, and 
Federal branches and agencies of foreign banks operating in the United 
States. The final rule generally makes regulatory requirements more 
streamlined and riskfocused. It clarifies certain regulatory 
definitions and simplifies approval procedures for foreign banks 
seeking to establish Federal branches and agencies in the United 
States. These changes will further conform the treatment of Federal 
branches and agencies of foreign banks to that of their domestic 
national bank counterparts consistent with the national treatment 
principles of the International Banking Act of 1978.
