On October 15, 2012, the FDIC
published in the Federal Register a final rule on annual stress
testing (Annual Stress Test Rule) that is applicable to all state
nonmember banks and state savings associations with over $10
billion in total consolidated assets (covered banks) pursuant to
the requirements of section 165(i)(2) of the Dodd-Frank Act Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act). The
Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) and the Board of
Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) issued annual
stress test final rules for their regulated entities near in time
to the FDIC’s Annual Stress Test Rule. The regulations across the
Federal banking agencies are consistent and comparable as required
by the Dodd-Frank Act. The Dodd-Frank Act stress testing
requirements apply to all covered banks (those with over $10
billion in total consolidated assets), but the FDIC recognized that
the stress tests conducted by covered banks with consolidated total
assets of $50 billion or more would be applied to more complex
portfolios, and therefore warranted a broader set of reports to
adequately capture the results of the company-run stress tests.
These reports necessarily required more detail than would be
appropriate for smaller, less complex institutions. Therefore, in
coordination with the other Federal banking agencies, the FDIC
specified separate reporting templates: (1) for covered banks with
total consolidated assets of greater than $10 billion and less than
$50 billion (OMB Control Number 3064-0187) and (2) for covered
banks with total consolidated assets of $50 billion or more (this
ICR). The FDIC’s, the OCC’s, and Board’s Annual Stress Test Rules
require their respective covered institutions with total
consolidated assets of $50 billion or more to conduct annual stress
tests and report on those tests to the relevant agency by March 31,
2016. The FDIC, OCC, and Board have coordinated the revisions to
the reporting templates that the covered institutions in this
category will use to report. The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation (FDIC) proposes to issue a rule that would revise the
FDIC’s requirements for stress testing by FDIC-supervised
institutions, consistent with changes made by Section 401 of the
Economic Growth, Regulatory Relief, and Consumer Protection Act
(EGRRCPA). Specifically, the proposed rule would amend the FDIC’s
existing stress testing regulations at 12 CFR Part 325 to change
the minimum threshold for applicability from $10 billion to $250
billion, revise the frequency of required stress tests by
FDIC-supervised institutions, and reduce the number of required
stress testing scenarios from three to two. The NPR also proposes
to make certain conforming and technical changes that were
previously included in an April 2019 notice of proposed rulemaking
that was superseded, in part, by the enactment of EGRRCPA.
