Burden Reduction Due to: Changing Regulations

Short Statement: The significantly lower estimates are due to the fact that, at the time the prior rules were adopted, banks had to create from scratch a system of rating every exposure. In addition, the OCC had no experience with assisting them and providing clear expectations. A chart comparing the burden from Basel II and III is attached as a supporting document.
