ICBA Opposition: ICBA continues to oppose ILC applications and exploitation of the ILC loophole, which allows parent companies to skirt regulatory oversight and violate the separation of banking and commerce. Most recently, it urged the FDIC to reject Ford Credit Bank’s ILC deposit insurance application.
