 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

National Treatment in Banking Act of 1994 - Directs the Secretary of the Treasury to: (1) identify the extent to which foreign countries may be denying national treatment to U.S. banking organizations; and (2) assess whether the possible denial of national treatment to such banking organizations may be having a significant adverse effect upon them. Authorizes the Secretary to publish notice of such assessments in the Federal Register.

Amends the International Banking Act of 1978, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, and the National Bank Act to direct the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Comptroller of the Currency to take into account whether the Secretary has published an adverse notice in the Federal Register when considering applications by foreign banks or other persons of a foreign country.
