On March 28, 2017, Wells Fargo & Company (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its most recent Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”) rating of “Needs to Improve.” A “Needs to Improve” rating imposes regulatory restrictions and limitations on certain of the Company’s nonbank activities, including its ability to engage in certain nonbank mergers and acquisitions or undertake new financial in nature activities, and CRA performance is taken into account by regulators in reviewing applications to establish bank branches and for approving proposed bank mergers and acquisitions. The rating also results in the loss of expedited processing of applications to undertake certain activities, and requires the Company to receive prior regulatory approval for certain activities, including to issue or prepay certain subordinated debt obligations, open or relocate bank branches, or make certain public welfare investments. In addition, a “Needs to Improve” rating could have an impact on the Company’s relationships with certain states, counties, municipalities or other public agencies to the extent applicable law, regulation or policy limits, restricts or influences whether such entity may do business with a company that has a below “Satisfactory” rating.
A copy of the press release is included as Exhibit 99.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01. Information available on the Company’s website and referenced in the press release is not incorporated by reference into this Item 8.01 or this report.
