INSTRUCTIONS FOR PREPARATION OF

Annual Company-Run Stress Test Report For
State Member Banks, Bank Holding Companies, and
Savings and Loan Holding Companies with Total
Consolidated Assets Greater Than $10 Billion and Less
Than $50 Billion
FR Y-16
GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS
The Annual Dodd Frank Act (DFA) Company-Run Stress
Testing Report (FR Y-16 report) collects detailed data on
State Member Banks’ (SMBs), Bank Holding Companies’ (BHCs) and Savings and Loan Holding Companies’
(SLHCs)1 quantitative projections of income, losses,
assets, liabilities, and capital across a range of macroeconomic and financial scenarios as well as the qualitative
supporting information on the methodologies and processes used to develop those internal projections. Further
information regarding the requirements of the qualitative
supporting information is provided in Appendix A. The
Federal Reserve Board (FRB) will provide details about
the macroeconomic scenarios to the SMBs, BHCs, and
SLHCs.

Who Must Report
Reporting Criteria
BHCs or SLHCs with total consolidated assets greater
than $10 billion but less than $50 billion that are subject
to the FRB’s stress test rules (12 CFR part 252, subpart
B), and any affiliated or unaffiliated SMBs with total
consolidated assets of more than $10 billion but less than
$50 billion (excluding SMB subsidiaries of covered
companies, as defined by the final stress test rule 12 CFR
part 252, subpart F) must file the FR Y-16.2
1. SLHCs that are subject to minimum regulatory capital requirements
and exceed the asset threshold for the first time on or before March 31,
2015, must comply with the company-run stress test requirements beginning on January 1, 2017, unless that time is extended by the FRB in
writing. SLHCs substantially engaged in commercial or insurance underwriting activities are exempt from the requirements until the Board establishes a final capital rule. If the Board issued the rule or order on or before
March of the previous year, the stress test requirements would have been
effective on January 1 of a given year, unless the time was accelerated or
extended by the Board in writing.
2. “Covered companies” are defined as BHCs with at least $50 billion
FR Y-16
General Instructions July 2016

The FRB’s final stress test rule defines total consolidated
assets as the average of the institution’s total consolidated assets over the four most recent consecutive quarters as reported on the respondent’s Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies (FR Y-9C: OMB
No. 7100-0128) or Consolidated Report of Condition and
Income (Call Report FFIEC 031 or FFIEC 041: OMB
No. 7100-0036). Per the final stress test rule, if the
institution has not filed a FR Y-9C or Call Report for
each of the four most recent consecutive quarters, the
average of the institution’s total consolidated assets in the
most recent quarter or consecutive quarters as reported
on the FR Y-9C or Call Report should be used in the
calculation.
Compliance after 3/31/15
A BHC, SLHC that is subject to minimum regulatory
capital requirements, or SMB that exceeds the asset
threshold for the first time on or before March 31 of a
given year must comply with the company-run stress test
requirements, beginning on January 1 of the following
year, unless that time is extended by the FRB in writing.
Similarly, a BHC, SLHC that is subject to minimum
regulatory capital requirements, or SMB that exceeds the
asset threshold for the first time after March 31 of a given
year must comply with the company-run stress test
requirements, beginning on January 1 of the second year
following that given year, unless that time is extended by
the FRB in writing.
For example, if an institution reported $9.5 billion in total
consolidated assets as reported on Schedule HC of its
FR Y-9C as of June 30 and September 30, 2015 and $11
billion as of December 31, 2015 and March 31, 2016, the
average total assets over the four-quarter period is calculated as $10.25 billion and the institution would meet the
in total consolidated assets and nonbank systemically important financial
institutions, subject to annual supervisory stress tests and semiannual
company-run stress tests.

General Instructions

requirement to conduct its first stress test for the 2017
stress test cycle commencing on January 1, 2017 and
reporting in July 2017.
For example, if an institution reported $9.5 billion in total
consolidated assets as reported on Schedule HC of its FR
Y-9C as of September 30 and December 31, 2015, and
$11 billion as of March 31 and June 30, 2016, the
average total assets over the four-quarter period is calculated as $10.25 billion and the institution would meet the
requirement to conduct its first stress test for the 2018
stress test cycle commencing on January 1, 2018 and
reporting in July 2018.
Once an institution meets the asset threshold, the company will remain subject to the final stress test rule
requirements unless and until the total consolidated assets
(not average assets) of the company are less than $10
billion for each of four consecutive quarters as reported
on the FR Y-9C or Call Report, as applicable (measured
on the as-of date of the fourth consecutive FR Y-9C or
Call Report). An institution that has reduced its total
consolidated assets below $10 billion for four consecutive quarters will again become subject to the requirements of this rule if it meets the asset threshold at a later
date.
Shifts in Reporting
If a BHC, SLHC, or SMB filing the report reaches total
consolidated assets of $50 billion or more, as defined by
the stress testing final rule (12 CFR 225.8), the institution
will need to refer to reporting requirements for the FR
Y-14 series to determine applicability.
Exemptions
SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs that do not meet the reporting
criteria listed above are exempt from reporting. Foreign
banking organizations are also exempt from FR Y-16
reporting.

When to Submit the Report
The FR Y-16 report is required to be submitted using
financial information as of December 31. The report
submission due date is the close of business July 31 of
each calendar year unless that time is extended by the
FRB in writing. Close of business is defined as 5:00 P.M.,
local time of the responsible Reserve Bank. The term
“submission date” is defined as the date by which the
Federal Reserve must receive the institution’s FR Y-16.
If the submission deadline falls on a weekend or holiday,
the report must be received on the first business day after
the weekend or holiday. Earlier submission aids the
Federal Reserve in reviewing and processing reports and
is encouraged.

Organization of the Report

Where to Submit the Report

General Information

The agencies’ close collaboration in developing a streamlined and simplified DFA stress test regulatory report will
facilitate a uniform electronic collection process for all
companies. All companies should submit their completed
reports electronically through Reporting Central, the
Federal Reserve’s electronic reports submission application. Reporting Central is a central point of entry for
Federal Reserve, FFIEC, and Treasury Department for

The annual company-run DFA stress tests will cover a
nine-quarter planning horizon beginning on the first day
of a stress test cycle (on January 1) and use financial
information as of December 31 of a reporting year (for a
total of ten quarters of information reported). SMBs,
BHCs, and SLHCs will report on the FR Y-16 their
quantitative projections of losses, resources available to
absorb those losses, balance sheet positions, and capital

composition on a quarterly basis over the duration of the
scenarios and planning horizon. The FRB will provide
details about the macroeconomic scenarios to the SMBs,
BHCs, and SLHCs.
The FR Y-16 is organized into the following sections:
A. Scenario Variables Schedule
B. Results Schedule
a. Summary Schedule
b. Baseline Scenario
i. Income Statement
ii. Balance Sheet Statement
c. Adverse Scenario
i. Income Statement
ii. Balance Sheet Statement
d. Severely Adverse Scenario
i. Income Statement
ii. Balance Sheet Statement
C. Appendix A - Qualitative Supporting Information
In addition to the projections collected on the FR Y-16,
SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs are also required to submit
summary qualitative information supporting their projections. The report of the results of the stress test must
include, under the baseline, adverse, and severely adverse
scenarios: a description of the types of risks included in
the stress test, a summary description of the methodologies used in the stress test, an explanation of the most
significant causes for the changes in regulatory capital
ratios, and the use of the stress test results. Please see
Appendix A for more details.

How to Prepare the Reports
A. Applicability of U.S. GAAP
SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs are required to prepare and file
the FR Y-16 schedules in accordance with U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and these instructions. For the purposes of FR Y-16 reporting, a SMB,
BHC, or SLHC should not reflect the adoption of new
accounting standards in its projections unless the firm has
already adopted the accounting standard for financial
reporting purposes. The financial records of the SMBs,
FR Y-16
General Instructions July 2017

BHCs, and SLHCs should be maintained in such a
manner and scope to ensure the FR Y-16 is prepared in
accordance with these instructions and reflects a fair
presentation of the SMBs’, BHCs’, and SLHCs’ financial
condition and assessment of performance under stressed
scenarios.
Institutions must project the allowance for loan and lease
losses (ALLL) using methodologies consistent with the
Current Exposure Credit Loss model (CECL) in all
DFAST submissions subsequent to the institution’s CECL
effective date. Thus, institutions with a CECL effective
date for the fiscal year following December 15, 2019
(effective date for SEC filers) must use methodologies to
project the ALLL in all quarters consistent with CECL
beginning with the 2020 DFAST submission. Institutions
that voluntarily adopt CECL prior to their CECL effective date are encouraged, but not required, to use methodologies to project the ALLL consistent with CECL in
the same DFAST submission year as the early adoption.
Unless the preceding criterion is met, institutions should
not use methodologies to project the ALLL consistent
with CECL for any future projected period in the DFAST
submission, including future projection periods that are
subsequent to the effective date for the institution. For
example, institutions with a CECL effective date for the
fiscal year following December 15, 2017 should not use
methodologies to project quarterly ALLL balances consistent with CECL in the FR Y-16 submission, even
though the ending ninth quarter of the DFAST 2018
submission corresponds to March 31, 2020.
B. Rules of Consolidation
Respondents should reference the FR Y-9C or Call
Report for general instructions on the rules of consolidation. Unless otherwise noted, items map directly to the
respondent’s FR Y-9C or Call Report for the actual
quarterly data provided for December 31 of the reporting
year while all remaining quarterly data over the ninequarter horizon are based on the institution’s quarterly
projections.
C. Projections
The report includes one quarter of actual data followed
by nine quarters of projected data. The “planning horizon” refers to the nine quarters of projected data, starting
with the first quarter following the actual data, which
GEN-3

General Instructions

would be the first quarter of the following year, or March
31st. Column headings refer to each corresponding quarter.

or more of these items, they should be recorded with a
minus (-) sign rather than in parentheses.

D. Order of Precedence

As these data will be collected as part of the supervisory
process, they are subject to confidential treatment under
exemption 8 of the Freedom of Information Act (5 U.S.C.
552(b)(8)). In addition, the information contained in this
report may be exempt from disclosure under Exemption
4.5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4). Disclosure determinations would
be made on a case-by-case basis.

If there is a conflict in guidance, SMBs, BHCs, and
SLHCs should first use the information contained in
these instructions and then the instructions available in
the latest FR Y-9C or Call Report.
E. Technical Details
The following instructions apply generally to the FR
Y-16, unless otherwise specified.
a. Report income and loss data on a quarterly basis and
not on a cumulative or year-to-date basis.
b. Ensure that any internal consistency checks are
complete prior to submission.
c. A numerical value or zero should generally be
entered for all items, except in those cases where
other options such as “not available” or “other” are
specified. If information is not available or not
applicable and no such options are offered, the field
should be left blank. Or if there are no data for
certain fields then populate them with a zero, “0”.
d. MDRM codes and formulas are provided in the
‘FFIEC 031 or 041 Call Report Item’ column and the
‘FR Y-9C Report Item’ column for most line items.
Definitions in the Call Report and FR Y-9C for those
items should be used.
F.

Rounding

All dollar amounts must be reported in thousands, with
the figures rounded to the nearest thousand. Rounding
could result in details not adding to their stated totals.
However, to ensure consistent reporting, the rounded
detail items should be adjusted so that the totals and the
sums of their components are identical.
G. Negative Entries
Negative entries are generally not appropriate on the FR
Y-16 balance sheet and should not be reported. Hence,
assets with credit balances must be reported in liability
items and liabilities with debit balances must be reported
in asset items, as appropriate, and in accordance with
these instructions. When negative entries do occur in one
GEN-4

H. Confidentiality

I. Amended Reports
When the Federal Reserve’s interpretation of how GAAP
or these instructions should be applied to a specified
event or transaction (or series of related events or transactions) differs from the reporting institution’s interpretation, the Federal Reserve may require the institution to
reflect the event(s) or transaction(s) in its FR Y-16 in
accordance with the Federal Reserve’s interpretation and
to amend previously submitted reports. The Federal
Reserve will consider the materiality of such event(s) or
transaction(s) in making a determination about requiring
the institution to apply the Federal Reserve’s interpretation and to amend previously submitted reports. Materiality is a qualitative characteristic of accounting information which is defined in FASB Concepts No. 2 as “the
magnitude of an omission or misstatement of accounting
information that, in the light of surrounding circumstances, make it probable that the judgment of a reasonable person relying on the information would have been
changed or influenced by the omission or misstatement.’’
The Federal Reserve may require the filing of an amended
FR Y-16 if previously submitted reports contain significant errors. In addition, an institution should file an
amended report when internal or external auditors make
audit adjustments that result in a restatement of financial
statements previously submitted to the Federal Reserve.
For further information regarding FR Y-16 amended
reports, please see the Amended Reports section in the
general instructions of the FR Y-9C.
If resubmissions are required, institutions should contact
the appropriate Federal Reserve Bank.
J. Data Items Automatically Retrieved from Other
Reports
The actual 12/31 data that is required to be submitted in
each schedule requested on the FR Y-16 may also be

collected in other reports submitted to the Federal
Reserve. If the institution files the other reports at the
same level of consolidation as is required for the FR
Y-16, the duplicate data items do not need to be reported
and may be left blank on the FR Y-16 form. For SMBs,
BHCs, and SLHCs, the data will be collected from the
FR Y-9C or Call Report.
However, the actual 12/31 data for certain line items do
not map to existing MDRM codes in the FR Y-9C or Call
Report. Institutions will need to report the actual 12/31
data for the following line items for each scenario:

SCENARIO VARIABLES SCHEDULE
To conduct the stress test required, a SMB, BHC, or
SLHC may choose to project additional economic and
financial variables beyond the mandatory supervisory
scenarios provided to estimate losses or revenues for
some or all of its portfolios. The FRB expects a SMB,
BHC, or SLHC to ensure that the paths of any additional
variables (including their timing) are consistent with the
general economic environment assumed in the supervisory scenarios. If additional variables are used, the SMB,
BHC, or SLHC must complete the following information
for each scenario where the institution chose to use
additional variables. The following instructions provide
guidance for institutions that choose to use additional
scenario variables to report. The Scenario Variables
Schedule should be reported in a data format (not pdf)
and submitted through the Reporting Central application.
A. Scenario Variable Definitions
This schedule should be used to list and define the
variables used by a SMB, BHC, or SLHC that chooses to
go beyond those variables defined in the mandatory
supervisory scenarios provided by the FRB.
• The schedule provides space for the baseline scenario,
adverse scenario, and severely adverse scenario. These
sections must be completed if an institution chooses to
use additional variables.
• If additional variables are used beyond the variables
included in the FRB provided scenarios, list those
variable names in the column titled “Variable Name.”
• Variable definitions should be provided in the column
titled “Variable Definition.” Variable definitions should
include a description of the variable (e.g., “real GDP”)
and the denomination and/or frequency of the variable
(e.g., “billions of 2005 dollars” or “in percent, average
of monthly values”).
• The forecasts and historical data for all of the additional scenario variables should be constructed on the
same basis. Thus, if a variable is, over history, constructed as an average, its forecast should be interpreted as an average as well.
The following definitions and basis (i.e. period-average
or period-end) of the financial market variables were
included in the 2013 mandatory supervisory scenarios
and are provided as an example for institutions to
GEN-6

describe any additional scenario variables used in its
stress test3:
o U.S. 10-year Treasury yield: Quarterly average of
the yield on 10-year U.S. Treasury bonds.
o U.S. mortgage rate: Quarterly average of weekly
series of Freddie Mac data.
o U.S. Dow Jones Total Stock Market Index: End of
quarter value, Dow Jones.
o U.S. Market Volatility Index (VIX): Chicago Board
Options Exchange converted to quarterly by using
the maximum value in any quarter.
• For convenience, the schedule provides space for ten
additional variables per scenario, but any number of
variables may be reported, depending on the variables
actually used in the scenario. Extra lines may be
created as needed. The same variables do not necessarily have to be included in each scenario.
• SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs should include all economic
and financial market variables that were important in
projecting results and are in addition to those provided
by the FRB, including those that affect only a subset of
portfolios or positions. For example, if asset prices in a
specific sector had a meaningful impact, then the
assumed level of prices and projections should be
included; or, if bankruptcy filings affect credit card loss
estimates, then the assumed levels of these loss estimates should be reported if used in the projections.
• SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs should also include any
variables capturing regional or local economic or asset
value conditions, such as regional unemployment rates
or regional housing prices, if these were used in the
projections.
• SMBs, BHCs, and SLHCs should include historical
data, as well as projections, for any macroeconomic,
regional, local, or financial market variables that are
not generally available. Historical data for these variables can be included in a separate document.
B. All Scenarios
• The Scenario Variables Schedule should be submitted
when additional variables are used beyond those provided by the regulators.

FR Y-16
General Instructions July 2016

General Instructions

• Variable names and definitions should be consistent
throughout the worksheets in the schedule.
• List quarterly values for the variables starting with the
last realized value (actual 12/31) through the end of the
planning horizon (projected quarter one through projected quarter nine). Reporting Central does not allow
variable values with decimal places on the Scenario
Variable Schedule. For variables that are not reported
in thousands (such as ratios or rates) the respondent
should provide the unit of measure in the Variable
Definition field to indicate the metrics of a given
variable. For example, if Interest Rate is the Variable
Name, the corresponding Variable Definition should
identify the metrics in which the data are reported
(basis points, 1 as 1%; and 554 as 5.54%, etc.).
• The Scenario Variables Schedule should be submitted
in data format (not pdf) through the Reporting Central
application.
C. DFA Stress Test Baseline Scenario
Respondents should report the values of any additional
variables generated for the DFA stress test baseline
scenario.
D. DFA Stress Test Adverse Scenario
Respondents should report the values of any additional
variables generated for the DFA stress test adverse
scenario.
E. DFA Stress Test Severely Adverse Scenario
Respondents should report the values of any additional
variables generated for the DFA stress test severely
adverse scenario.

RESULTS SCHEDULES
The Results Schedules are composed of seven supporting
schedules: a Summary Schedule, which summarizes key
results from the Baseline, Adverse, and Severely Adverse
Scenarios; and supporting schedules with Income Statement, Balance Sheet, and Capital Statement details. Each
supporting schedule has three versions: one each for the
Baseline Scenario, the Adverse Scenario, and the Severely
Adverse Scenario.
Detailed instructions for the Income Statement and Balance Sheet schedules follow in the sections below.
FR Y-16
General Instructions July 2016

Summary Schedule
This schedule summarizes key results reported on the
Income Statement and Balance Sheet schedules for the
Baseline, Adverse, and Severely Adverse Scenarios. No
action is required by institutions to complete this schedule as this summary data schedule will be populated
automatically from the Income Statement and Balance
Sheet schedules.

Income Statement Schedule
For the Income Statement schedule, MDRM codes corresponding to the related FR Y-9C and Call Report line
items are provided for many of the line items. Respondents should report income and loss data on a quarterly
basis and not on a cumulative or year-to-date basis. When
applicable, the definitions of the SMB’s, BHC’s, and
SLHC’s projections should map to the definitions outlined by the corresponding MDRM code within the
FR Y-9C and Call Report. The SMB, BHC, or SLHC
should include income or losses tied to the relevant
balances reported on the Balance Sheet schedule.
General Instructions
This schedule collects various income statement items
similar to items found on Schedules HI, HI-A, and HI-B
on the FR Y-9C or Schedules RI, RI-A, and RI-B on the
Call Report. Net charge-offs on this schedule is defined
as gross charge-offs less recoveries for the various line
items. As stated in the FR Y-9C instructions, institutions
should also include write-downs to fair values on loans
(and leases) transferred to the held-for-sale account during the calendar year-to-date that occurred when (1) the
institution decided to sell loans that were not originated
or otherwise acquired with the intent to sell and (2) the
fair value of those loans had declined for any reason
other than a change in the general market level of interest
or foreign exchange rates.
For those institutions or consolidated subsidiaries required
to establish and maintain an allocated transfer risk
reserve, as specified in Section 905(a) of the International
Lending Supervision Act of 1983, in the agency regulations implementing the Act (Subpart D of Federal
Reserve Regulation K), and in any guidelines or instructions issued by the Federal Reserve, columns A and B of
part I of schedule HI-B include loans and leases charged
off against and amounts recovered, respectively, through
the allocated transfer risk reserve. These instructions

Balance Sheet Schedule: Capital Section
This section collects projections of components of equity
capital and regulatory capital, components of assets and
liabilities, and deferred tax asset items. When applicable,
the definitions of the SMB’s, BHC’s, and SLHC’s projections should map to the definitions outlined by the
corresponding MDRM code within the FR Y9-C and Call
Report.
The projections should clearly show any proposed capital
actions or other scenario-dependent actions that would
affect the SMB’s, BHC’s, and SLHC’s regulatory capital,
including any assumptions required under the FRB’s
final stress test rule. A BHC or SLHC is required to make
the following assumptions regarding its capital actions
over the planning horizon under the DFA stress test:
(1) For the first quarter of the planning horizon, the BHC
or SLHC must take into account its actual capital
actions as of the end of that quarter; and
(2) For each of the second through ninth quarters of the
planning horizon, a BHC or SLHC must include in
the projections of capital - (i) an assumption of no
redemption or repurchase of any capital instrument
that is eligible for inclusion in the numerator of a
regulatory capital ratio; (ii) an assumption of no
issuances of common stock or preferred stock, except
for issuances related to expensed employee compensation or in connection with a planned merger or
acquisition to the extent that the merger or acquisition is reflected in the company’s pro forma balance
sheet estimates; and (iii) make reasonable assumptions regarding payments of dividends consistent
with internal capital needs and projections.
A BHC, SMB, or SLHC should measure its regulatory
capital levels and regulatory capital ratios for each
quarter in accordance with the rules that would be in
effect during that quarter.
GEN-14

MDRM codes in this section reference both Advanced
Approach and Non-Advanced Approach MDRMs. As
noted, institutions should provide projections consistent
with its quarterly Call Report and FR Y 9-C filings. For
example, if an institution is not subject to an Advanced
Approach capital framework, reporting in this section
will reflect non-advanced approach MDRMs. It is
expected that this will be case for the majority of
organizations filing the FR Y-16 form. Use of Advanced
Approach MDRMs may be utilized in the atypical
instance that an institution is part of a larger company
that is subject to the Advanced Approach capital framework.

Opt-In Companies: Advanced approaches institutions
that must “opt-in” and non-advanced approaches companies that decide to “opt-in” must calculate the net unrealized holding gains (losses) on AFS securities and report
actual data for Balance Sheet Statement line item 40.
Line tem 40 will not be derived for AOCI opt-in institutions and must be input manually.

QUALITATIVE SUPPORTING
INFORMATION
APPENDIX A

Each SMB, BHC, and SLHC is required under the final
stress test rule to submit a summary of the qualitative
information supporting its projections. Supporting information should include sufficient information to inform a
third party of an institution’s general approach and
assumptions, but remain summary in nature. Companies
should provide appropriate references to internal documents that provide more detail and support for the items
to be discussed in the submission, such as detail that
supports model documentation that examination staff
may review during an on or offsite follow-up. All companies must submit the qualitative supporting information in Adobe Acrobat PDF format.
The qualitative supporting information summary file
should be titled as
“ReportID_RSSD_SUMMARY_MMDDYY”.
• The “ReportID” in the file name should be as follows
for the following respondents:

requested and reviewed as part of the supervisory process. Sections that should be addressed in the summary
document are listed below, as well as a description of
items that should be included.
1. Summary and Governance
Executive summary, general risk overview, including a
description of the risks used in the stress test; summary
reports describing the stress testing process, senior management and board roles; internal governance and model
risk management practices; and any other items related to
the overall process. Each institution should describe how
senior management provided the board of directors with
sufficient information to facilitate the board’s full understanding of the stress testing used by the bank and allow
for the appropriate level of challenge of assumptions and
outcomes.

o “FRY16” for BHCs, SLHCs, and SMBs

In addition, the following subsections (1.A through 1.D)
should be included as part of the summary and governance section:

o “OCCDFAST1050” for national banks and savings
banks

A. Description of the Types of Risks Included in the
Stress Test

o “FDICDFAST1050” for nonmember banks and state
savings banks

For each part of the Results schedule and the Scenario
Variables schedule, each institution should submit supporting qualitative information that clearly describes the
types of risks and exposures captured in the stress test
scenarios for all lines of business and activities. This
includes information about risks that may threaten or
adversely affect the institution’s capital position through
increased losses, reduced revenues, and changes in the
balance sheet or risk-weighted assets. The information
should discuss the extent to which risks are wholly or
only partially covered by the stress tests (for example, if
not all aspects of interest rate risk are captured by the
tests with the given scenarios provided).

• The “RSSD” in the file name is the institution specific
identifier for a respondent.
• The “MMDDYY” should be the as-of date of the stress
test cycle (for example, 123116 for the 2017 stress test
cycle).
The purpose of the summary document is to provide an
overview of the stress testing process as required in the
Agencies’ final stress test rules and as is repeated in
Appendix A. Significant detailed information, such as
program language coding that accompanies model estimations (for example, SAS coding) should not be included
in the summary document. Detailed documents will be

B. Summary Description of the Methodologies used in
the Stress Test

on forecasted loss estimates relative to historical performance should be clearly explained.

For each part of the Results schedule and the Scenario
Variables schedule, the SMB, BHC, or SLHC should
submit supporting information that clearly describes the
methodology used to produce the projections. Each SMB,
BHC, or SLHC should include a summary description of
how it translated the macroeconomic and financial variables from the supervisory scenarios into its projections
and technical details of any underlying statistical methods used. Information should be provided for all elements of the stress tests, including loss estimation,
revenue estimation, projections of the balance sheet and
risk-weighted assets, and capital levels and ratios. Where
judgment is an essential part of the projection, each
institution should describe the rationale and magnitude,
as well as the process involved to ensure consistency of
projections with scenario conditions. Furthermore, the
institutions should include thorough discussion of any
material deviations from these instructions and how they
decided upon the materiality of such deviations.

Institutions should provide summary information on the
specific assumptions used to calculate regulatory capital,
including a discussion of any proposed capital distributions. When appropriate, clearly state assumptions related
to the corporate tax rate and the projection of the deferred
tax assets. In situations where the SMB, BHC, or SLHC
choose not to project components of the balance sheet,
those components should be held constant at the last
current level and the SMB, BHC, or SLHC should
explain why the held constant assumption is appropriate
in the given scenario.

Discussion of methodologies should be consistent with
expectations in existing supervisory guidance on stress
testing issued by the agencies. In particular, the institution should provide a summary of the design, theory, and
logic underlying the methodologies used.
If third-party models are used, an institution should
provide summary information about those models, including model design, key assumptions, known limitations,
and implementation and execution.
Each SMB, BHC, or SLHC should provide credible
support for all key assumptions used to derive loss and
revenue estimates, including assumptions related to the
components of loss, severity of loss, drivers of revenue,
and any known weaknesses in the translation of assumptions into loss and revenue estimates. Each institution
should demonstrate that these assumptions are clearly
conditioned on the stated macroeconomic and financial
scenarios and are consistent with stated business strategies including but not limited to mergers, acquisitions, or
divestitures of business lines or entities and changes in
strategic direction. If the institution’s models rely upon
historical relationships, describe the historical data used
and clearly describe why these relationships are expected
to be maintained in each scenario. The impact of assumptions concerning new growth or changes to credit policy
APP-A-2

Each SMB, BHC, and SLHC should submit any other
summary information and documentation necessary to
support or explain its capital calculations. For example,
an institution could show the calculations related to the
projections of the deferred tax asset for regulatory capital
purposes.
While judgment is an essential part of risk measurement
and risk management, including loss forecasting, institutions should not be over-reliant on judgment to prepare
their loss estimations without providing documentation
or evidence of transparency and discipline around the
process. Each SMB, BHC, and SLHC should provide
support for any judgment applied or qualitative adjustments made and explain how they are appropriate and in
line with scenario conditions.
C. Explanation of the Most Significant Causes for the
Changes in Regulatory Capital Ratios
For each part of the Results schedule and the Scenario
Variables schedule, each SMB, BHC, and SLHC should
provide a clear explanation of the changes in regulatory
capital ratios from the stress test scenarios over the
planning horizon. For instance, an institution may indicate that a major component of the reduction in regulatory capital ratios resulted from deterioration in the
quality of its retail credit exposures over the planning
horizon. The explanation should take into account the
risks identified and describe the changes in capital by
material income statement and balance sheet statement
line items affected by the stress test scenario.
D. Use of Stress Test Results
Companies should provide summary information as to
how they use these stress test results in the normal course
of business, including in the capital planning, assessment

of capital adequacy, and risk management practices of
the company. This summary should describe the manner
in which the stress test is used for key decisions about
capital adequacy, including capital actions and capital
contingency plans. The company should indicate the
extent to which this stress test is used in conjunction with
other capital assessment tools, especially if the stress test
may not necessarily capture a company’s full range of
risks, exposures, activities, and vulnerabilities that have
the potential to affect capital adequacy. In addition, a
company should include summary information as to how
post-stress capital results remain aligned with its internal
capital goals. The company should mention any cases in
which post-stress capital results are not aligned with a
company’s internal capital goals, and describe options
that senior management and the board would consider to
bring them into alignment.

7. Balance Sheet

Summary of the methodology, models, and validation
activities related to the process used to translate macro
variables, including the use of additional scenario variables, if applicable. If additional scenario variables are
used beyond the supervisory scenario variables provided
by the Agencies, each respondent should complete the
scenario variables schedule as previously indicated in the
reporting instructions.

Summary methodology, model, and validation activities
related to the balance sheet estimation, such as loan
balances. This information should support Balance Sheet
schedule line items 1 to 39.

In addition, each institution should include summary
information supporting any additional scenario variables
used to conduct the DFA stress tests. The information
should detail the rationale behind including additional
scenario variables and the process for projecting additional variables, including the linkage with the macroeconomic and financial scenarios provided by the FRB.
3. Capital
Summary of the methodology, models, and validation
activities related to regulatory capital, explanations of
proposed capital actions, options to maintain internally
established capital goals on a post-stress basis, and an
explanation of causes for changes in regulatory capital
ratios. This information should support the Balance Sheet
schedule line items 40 to 54.
4. Loans
Summary of the methodology, model, and validation
activities related to each loan portfolio reported in total
loans and leases, including the associated ALLL. This
information should support Balance Sheet schedule line

Summary of methodology, model, and validation activities related to the projections of HTM and AFS security
balances, unrealized losses, and OTTI. This information
should support Balance Sheet schedule line items 17 to
26 and Income Statement schedule line items 20 to 22
and 25.
6. Pre-provision Net Revenue
Summary of methodology, model, and validation activities related to the estimates of net interest income,
margins, fees, funding costs and related items. This
information should support Income Statement schedule
line items 15 to 18.

not include embedded files and should be submitted in
Adobe Acrobat PDF format. The file size limit is 50 MB.
If the file needs to be split up into smaller files, the
combined file size limit is 200 MB. When submitting
multiple files in order to meet the file size limit, the file
name should indicate the content of files submitted using
the seven qualitative supporting information summary
categories discussed above.
