The OCC, Federal Reserve, and FDIC propose modifying the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio standards for U.S. global systemically important bank holding companies and their subsidiary depository institutions. The proposal sets the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio buffer at 50 percent of the GSIB risk-based capital surcharge and aligns subsidiary standards with the parent level to ensure these metrics serve as a backstop rather than a binding constraint. Additionally, the agencies propose amendments to total loss-absorbing capacity and long-term debt requirements to maintain alignment with the revised leverage standards and adjust applicability thresholds for OCC-supervised institutions.
