National Depositor Preference Amendment

National Depositor Preference Amendment
Definition: Provisions of the Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act, that established the priority for paying claims filed against a failed depository institution. The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act was enacted on August 10, 1993, and amended section 11(d) of the FDI Act and standardized the assets distribution scheme for all receiverships regardless of the institution's chartering agency. As a result of this act, deposit liabilities of the institution have priority over all claims except the administrative expenses of the receiver.
