(A)review the agency’s regulations and written policies relating to transfers of assets with recourse by insured depository institutions; and

(2)Exception for safety and soundness The appropriate Federal banking agency may require any insured depository institution to maintain risk-based capital in an amount greater than the amount determined under paragraph (1), if the agency determines, by regulation or order, that such higher amount is necessary for safety and soundness reasons.
(c)Coordination with section 1835(b) of this title This section shall not be construed as superseding the applicability of section 1835(b) of this title.
(d)Definitions For purposes of this section, the terms “appropriate Federal banking agency”, “Federal banking agency”, and “insured depository institution” have the same meanings as in section 1813 of this title.
