The FR Y-15 quarterly report currently
collects systemic risk data from U.S. bank holding companies
(BHCs), covered savings and loan holding companies (SLHCs), and
intermediate holding companies (IHCs) with total consolidated
assets of $50 billion or more, as well as any U.S. BHC designated
as a global systemically important bank holding company (GSIB).
Pursuant to separate revisions to the FR Y-15 recently made by the
Board, the reporting panel for the FR Y-15 will, effective June 30,
2020, consist of U.S. BHCs and SLHCs with $100 billion or more in
consolidated assets, foreign banking organizations (FBOs) with $100
billion or more in combined U.S. assets, and any BHC designated as
a GSIB. Among other purposes, the Board uses the FR Y-15 data to
monitor, on an ongoing basis, the systemic risk profile of certain
institutions that are subject to enhanced prudential standards
under section 165 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer
Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act).
The delegation of
authority to the Board from OMB that permits the Board to approve
collections of information under the Paperwork Reduction Act
includes the authority to temporarily approve a collection of
information without seeking public comment. To exercise this
authority, the Board must determine that a new collection of
information or a change to an existing collection must be
instituted quickly and that public participation in the approval
process would substantially interfere with the Board’s ability to
perform its statutory obligation. Following the temporary approval
of an information collection, the Board must conduct a normal
delegated review of the collection within six months, including
publishing in the Federal Register a notice seeking public comment.
In response to recent economic disruptions and volatility in U.S.
financial markets caused by the spread of Coronavirus Disease 2019
(COVID-19), the Board temporarily revised the FR Y-15 effective
beginning with the June 30, 2020, as-of date.
