Interagency Policy Statement on Allowances for Credit Losses

The OCC, Federal Reserve, FDIC, and NCUA issued a proposed interagency policy statement to align supervisory expectations with the Financial Accounting Standards Board's new Current Expected Credit Losses methodology. The document outlines requirements for measuring expected credit losses, maintaining appropriate allowances, and establishing robust internal controls and board oversight for financial institutions. It replaces previous guidance on allowance for loan and lease losses and invites public comment on the proposed standards by December 16, 2019.
