Federal Reserve proposes to revamp post-crisis rules for U.S. banks. The current proposals would prescribe materially less strict requirements for community banks and regional financial institutions with less systemic risk exposure, whereas, the most stringent requirements remain for big banks that pose the greatest risks to the U.S. financial system. The most stringent requirements include the Dodd-Frank macroprudential stress tests that focus on the main vulnerable parts of the financial system such as residential mortgages, auto loans, and corporate credit lines. The new rules would significantly reduce regulatory barriers for small community banks and regional financial institutions. Specifically, the smaller deposit-takers operate within the reasonable range of $100 billion-$250 billion in total assets. U.S. banks that operate with $250+ billion total assets (or $75 billion cross-jurisdictional capital flows) would continue to meet the same prudential standards such as high liquidity coverage and sufficient core equity capital adequacy etc.
The U.S. globally systemically important banks (GSIBs) would continue to conduct the Federal Reserve macro stress tests each year, but these GSIBs would report the test results only once every 2 years. These recent institutional arrangements help ensure a balance between macro-financial stabilization and micro-prudential deregulation.
