Abstract: The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Federal Reserve), and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) (the agencies) published a joint final rule (77 FR 53060) on August 30, 2012, to revise the market risk capital rule, which was effective January 1, 1997. This final rule would revise the market risk capital rule to better capture positions for which the market risk capital rule is appropriate, reduce procyclicality, enhance the rule's sensitivity to risks that are not adequately captured under the current methodologies, and increase transparency through enhanced disclosures. The final rule does not include all of the methodologies adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) for calculating the standardized specific risk capital requirements for debt and securitization positions due to their reliance on credit ratings, which is impermissible under the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010. Instead, the final rule includes alternative methodologies for calculating standardized specific risk capital requirements for debt and securitization positions. The final rule is effective on January 1, 2013.
