The mandate targets non-global systemically important banking organizations with at least $100 billion in consolidated assets, requiring them to hold either externally or internally issued loss-absorbing debt instruments. By strengthening funding stability and resolution flexibility, the proposal reduces potential costs to the Deposit Insurance Fund and mitigates systemic contagion risks from uninsured deposit runs.
