On commercial loan requests we will sometimes deviate from the interest rates listed on our rate sheet (those rates offered to the general public) for reason of matching the rate being offered by a competing lender.
We will report this as an interest rate pricing exception for reason of competitive disadvantage. My question is, does this same interest rate pricing exception constitute a Reg O violation when granted to a bank director?

I have a question on Reg O, specifically the preapproval by the majority of the entire board of directors requirement under 215.4.
1. If the board of Directors authorizes a sub-committee to act on behalf of
the entire board, would pre-approval by that sub-committee satisfy the regulatory requirement regarding approval by a majority of the entire Board of Directors?
2. What if the majority of that sub-committee was composed of senior
management, the remaining minority members were board members and the total number of board members on the committee did not constitute a majority of the entire board?

In the first quarter 2018 I was added as an executive officer for our bank. I currently have a home loan, a HELOC and a vehicle installment loan with our bank which were all originated prior to my becoming an executive officer. The aggregate amount owed is under $100,000. The home loan and HELOC will balloon in the coming year. Am I correct that the Reg O demand clause is not required to be added to my loan documents until the loans are renewed, extended or modified or should my loan contracts have been modified when I became an executive officer?

One of our bank directors has an adult relative who is starting a new business venture. This relative wants to get financing from the bank, and part of the collateral securing the loan would be bank stock pledged by the director. The director has no beneficial ownership in this new business venture and simply wants to help the relative get the business up and running. What, if any, Regulation O implications are involved with this scenario?
