NOTE

The Operational Limits Statement – DLO, document code 2061, whose normative basis is BCB Resolution No. 69, of February 10, 2021, reflects the prudential regulation provided for in various Resolutions issued by the National Monetary Council – CMN and by the Central Bank of Brazil – BCB, with the BCB Normative Instruction No. 81, of February 23, 2021, aiming to present, in a concise manner, the information regarding the details of the calculation of the limits monitored by the BCB, at the calculation data base.

2. For each limit, the document code 2021 contains two sets of information: i) calculation of the institution's situation; and ii) calculation of the regulatory requirement and the margin (or deficiency) of the institution in relation to the considered limit. The aforementioned document is composed of various accounts that must be filled in by financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank of Brazil.

3. Based on the changes promoted by CMN Resolution No. 4,966, of November 25, 2021, and BCB Resolution No. 352, of November 23, 2023, Normative Instruction No. 563 was issued on December 12, 2024, which, among other things, postponed the deadline for submission of the DLO for the January 2025 data base to April 5, 2025.

4. It should be noted that April 5, 2025, is also the deadline for the submission of the DLO for the February 2025 data base. It is worth highlighting that the DLO is a complex document that requires time for its generation. Based on this, associations representing financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank of Brazil requested that this Central Bank postpone the submission of the DLO for the February 2025 data base to April 22, 2025, so that these institutions would have sufficient time to generate, verify, and submit this document.

5. Considering the reasonableness of the request presented, this Agency agreed to extend the submission of the DLO document to the requested date.

6. Decree No. 10,411, of June 30, 2020, regulates the conduct of regulatory impact analysis – AIR as a prerequisite for the issuance of normative acts of general interest to economic agents. However, in its article 4, the aforementioned decree establishes the hypotheses for exemption from conducting an AIR. This BCB IN falls under the hypothesis provided for in item VII - normative act that reduces requirements, obligations, restrictions, requests, or specifications with the objective of reducing regulatory costs.

7. The request presented by the associations representing financial institutions and other institutions authorized to operate by the Central Bank of Brazil and accepted by this Agency postpones by 15 days the deadline for submission of the DLO for the February 2025 data base, in order to reduce the regulatory costs to these institutions, thus justifying the classification of the present BCB IN under item VII of art. 4 of Decree No. 10,411, of 2020.

8. Thus, based on the provisions of paragraphs 6 and 7, I understand that the issuance of the present BCB IN is exempt from conducting an AIR.
