Description
The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System is proposing amendments to the rule that establishes risk-based capital surcharges for U.S. global systemically important bank holding companies (GSIBs). The proposal includes modifications to the coefficients used in surcharge calculations, changes to the measurement and weighting of systemic indicators, and improvements to data reporting in the Systemic Risk Report (FR Y-15). These changes aim to better align surcharges with systemic risk profiles and improve the accuracy and sensitivity of the framework.
