Amendments to Capital Planning and Stress Testing Requirements for Large Bank Holding Companies, Intermediate Holding Companies and Savings and Loan Holding Companies

The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System proposes to tailor capital planning, regulatory reporting, and stress capital buffer requirements for firms subject to Category IV standards to align with its existing prudential tailoring framework. The proposal would generally remove the requirement for these firms to calculate forward-looking projections using Board-provided scenarios and reduce the frequency of supervisory stress tests to biennial, while also updating stress testing rules for savings and loan holding companies. Additionally, the Board solicits comments on its guidance for capital planning for all supervised firms in light of recent regulatory changes and ongoing policy reviews.
