2022-12-19 | 2022-27475The Federal Reserve Board and the FDIC are extending the public comment period for their advance notice of proposed rulemaking on resolution-related resource requirements for large banking organizations. The extension moves the deadline from December 23, 2022, to January 23, 2023, allowing stakeholders additional time to evaluate whether an extra layer of loss-absorbing capacity would improve resolution optionality and mitigate financial stability risks. Agencies invite all interested parties to submit comments on the costs, benefits, and broader policy implications of this potential requirement before the new deadline.
This section of the FEDERAL REGISTER contains notices to the public of the proposed issuance of rules and regulations. The purpose of these notices is to give interested persons an opportunity to participate in the rule making prior to the adoption of the final rules. Proposed Rules Federal Register 77529 Vol. 87, No. 242 Monday, December 19, 2022 1 87 FR 64170 (October 24, 2022). FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM 12 CFR Chapter II [Docket No. R–1786] RIN 7100–AG44 FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION 12 CFR Chapter III RIN 3064–AF86 Resolution-Related Resource Requirements for Large Banking Organizations; Extension of Comment Period AGENCY: Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. ACTION: Advance notice of proposed rulemaking; extension of comment period. SUMMARY: On October 24, 2022, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) (together, the agencies) published in the Federal Register an advance notice of proposed rulemaking (ANPR) to solicit public input regarding whether an extra layer of loss-absorbing capacity could improve optionality in resolving a large banking organization or its insured depository institution, and the costs and benefits of such a requirement. The agencies have determined that an extension of the comment period until January 23, 2023, is appropriate, and are therefore making that extension. DATES: The comment period for the advance notice of proposed rulemaking published October 24, 2022, at 87 FR 64170, is extended. Comments must be received by January 23, 2023. ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by any of the methods identified in the ANPR.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On October 24, 2022, the agencies published in the Federal Register an ANPR to solicit public input regarding whether an extra layer of loss-absorbing capacity could improve optionality in resolving a large banking organization or its insured depository institution, and the costs and benefits of such a requirement.1 This may, among other things, address financial stability by limiting contagion risk through the reduction in the likelihood of uninsured depositors suffering loss, and keep various resolution options open for the FDIC to resolve a firm in a way that minimizes the long term risk to financial stability and preserves optionality. The agencies are seeking comment on all aspects of the ANPR from all interested parties and also request commenters to identify other issues that the Board and FDIC should consider. The ANPR stated that the comment period would close on December 23, 2022. The agencies have received a request to extend the comment period. An extension of the comment period would provide additional opportunity for the public to prepare comments to address questions posed by the agencies. Therefore, the agencies are extending the end of the comment period for the ANPR from December 23, 2022, to January 23, 2022. By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, acting through the Secretary of the Board under delegated authority. Ann E. Misback, Secretary of the Board, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. By order of the Board of Directors. Dated at Washington, DC, on December 14, 2022. James P. Sheesley, Assistant Executive Secretary.
