Schedule HC-R, Part I Instructions
……..
Line Item 11 LESS: Non-significant investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions in the
form of common stock that exceed the 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments.
(i) All non-advanced approaches holding companies (Column A)
Not applicable. Proceed to HC-R, Part 1, line 12 to complete the subtotal calculation.
(ii) All advanced approaches holding companies (Column B)
A holding company has a non-significant investment in the capital of an unconsolidated financial institution if it owns
10 percent or less of the issued and outstanding common shares of that holding company.
Report the amount of non-significant investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions in the form of
common stock that, in the aggregate with covered debt instruments, as applicable 8 exceed the 10 percent threshold
for non-significant investments, calculated as described below. The holding company may apply associated DTLs to
this deduction.
Example and a worksheet calculation:
Assumptions:
A holding company has a total of $200 in non-significant investments in the capital and covered debt instruments
of unconsolidated financial institutions, of which $100 is in common shares. For this example, all of the $100 in
common shares is in the common stock of a publicly traded financial institution.
Assume the amount reported on Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 5 (common equity tier 1 capital before adjustments
and deductions is $1,000.
Assume the amounts reported in Schedule HC-R, Part I, items 6 through 9(f), are all $0.

(11.ii) Advanced approaches holding company worksheet
(1)
Determine the aggregate amount of non-significant investments in
the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions (including in the
form of common stock, additional tier 1, tier 2 capital, and covered
debt instruments).
(2)
Determine the amount of non-significant investments in the capital
of unconsolidated financial institutions in the form of common stock.
(3)
Subtract from Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 5, the amounts in
Schedule HC-R, Part I, and items 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10.
(4)
Multiply the amount in step (3) by 10 percent. This is “the 10
percent threshold for non-significant investments.”
(5)
If (1) is greater than (4), subtract (4) from (1) and multiply the result
by the ratio of (2) divided by (1). Report this amount in this
Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 11.
(6)

If (1) is less than (4), enter zero in this item 11.
Assign the applicable risk weight to the amount of non-significant
investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions
that does not exceed the 10 percent threshold for non-significant
investments.

$200

$100
$1,000 - $0 = $1,000
$1,000 x 10% = $100
Line (1) is greater than line (4);
therefore $200 - $100 = $100. Then
($100 x 100/200) = $50. Report $50
in this line item 11.
Of the $100 in common shares, $50
are deducted in this line item 11.
The remaining $50 needs to be
included in risk-weighted assets in
Schedule HC-R, Part II.*

* In this case (assuming that publicly traded equity exposures do not qualify for a 100 percent risk weigh under
section 52(b) (3) (iii) of the regulatory capital rules), $50 x 300% risk weight for publicly traded common shares under
section 52(b) (5) of the capital rules = $150 in risk-weighted assets for the portion of common shares in an
unconsolidated financial institution that are not deducted. Include this amount in Schedule HC-R, Part II, riskweighted assets, “All other assets” item.

Line Item 17 LESS: Deductions applied to common equity tier 1 capital due to insufficient amounts of
additional tier 1 capital and tier 2 capital to cover deductions.
.....
(ii) All advanced approaches holding companies (Column B)
Report the total amount of deductions related to investments in own additional tier 1 and tier 2 capital instruments;
investments in own covered debt instruments, if applicable; reciprocal cross holdings; investments in the capital and
covered debt instruments of unconsolidated financial institutions; investments in excluded covered debt instruments,
as applicable; 9 if the holding company does not have a sufficient amount of additional tier 1 capital before deductions
(reported in Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 23) and tier 2 capital before deductions (reported in Schedule HC-R, Part I,
item 42.a and 42.b) to absorb these deductions in Schedule HC-R, Part 1, items 24 or 43, as appropriate.

(ii) Advanced approaches holding companies
…..
(3) Non-significant investments in additional tier 1 capital of unconsolidated financial institutions that exceed
the 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments.
As noted in the instructions for HC-R, Part 1, item 11 above, a holding company has a non-significant investment in
the capital of an unconsolidated financial institution if it owns 10 percent or less of the issued and outstanding
common shares of that institution.
Calculate this amount as follows:
(1) Determine the aggregate amount of non-significant investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial
institutions in the form of common stock, additional tier 1 capital, tier 2 capital, and covered debt instruments.
(2) Determine the amount of non-significant investments in the capital of unconsolidated financial institutions in the
form of additional tier 1 capital.
(3) If the amount in (1) is greater than the 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments (Schedules HC-R, Part
1, item 11, step (4)), then multiply the difference by the ratio of (2) over (1). Report this product in this item 24.
(4) If the amount in (1) is less than the 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments, report zero.
For example, assume a holding company has a total of$200 in non-significant investments (step 1), including $60 in
the form of additional tier 1 capital (step 2), and its 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments is $100 (as
calculated in step 4 of item 11). Since the aggregate amount of non-significant investments exceeds the 10 percent
threshold for non-significant investments by $100 ($200-$100), the holding company must multi-ply $100 by the ratio
of 60/200 (step 3). Thus, the holding company would need to deduct $30 from its additional tier 1 capital.
…..
(5) Other adjustments and deductions.
Include adjustments and deductions applied to additional tier 1 capital due to insufficient tier 2 capital to cover
deductions (related to reciprocal cross holdings, non-significant investments in the tier 2 capital of unconsolidated
financial institutions, significant investments in the tier 2 capital of unconsolidated financial institutions, significant
investments in the covered debt instruments of unconsolidated financial institutions, non-significant investments in the
covered debt instruments of unconsolidated financial institutions, and investments in excluded covered debt
instruments).
Also include adjustments and deductions related to DTAs that arise from net operating loss and tax credit carry forwards, gain-on-sale in connection with a securitization exposure, defined benefit pension fund assets, and changes in
fair value of liabilities due to changes in own credit risk.

…..
(ii) Advanced approaches holding companies
(1) Investments in own tier 2 capital instruments.
Report the holding company’s investments in (including any contractual obligation to purchase) its own tier 2
instruments, whether held directly or indirectly. Also report investments in (including any contractual obligation to
purchase) its own covered debt instruments, as applicable, whether held directly or indirectly.
A holding company may deduct gross long positions net of short positions in the same underlying instrument only if
the short positions involve no counterparty risk.
The holding company must look through any holdings of index securities to deduct investments in its own capital
instruments. In addition:
(i) Gross long positions in investments in an institution’s own regulatory capital instruments resulting from holdings of
index securities may be netted against short positions in the same index;
(ii) Short positions in index securities that are hedging long cash or synthetic positions can be decom-posed to
recognize the hedge; and
(iii) The portion of the index that is composed of the same underlying exposure that is being hedged may be used to
offset the long position if both the exposure being hedged and the short position in the index are covered positions
under the market risk capital rule, and the hedge is deemed effective by the institution’s internal control processes.
2) Reciprocal cross-holdings in the capital of financial institutions.
Include investments in the tier 2 capital instruments of other financial institutions that the institution holds reciprocally,
where such reciprocal crossholdings result from a formal or informal arrangement to swap, exchange, or otherwise
intend to hold each other’s capital instruments.
Also include investments in the covered debt instruments of other financial institutions that the holding company holds
reciprocally, where such reciprocal crossholdings result from a formal or informal arrangement to swap, exchange, or
otherwise intend to hold each other's instruments.
(3) A global systemically important BHC, as defined in 12 CFR 217.2, or a Board-regulated holding company
that is a subsidiary of a global systemically important banking organization, as defined in 12 CFR 252.2:
investments in non-qualifying excluded covered debt instruments.
Report the amount of any investment, on a gross long basis, in a covered debt instrument that was originally
designated as an excluded covered debt instrument, in accordance with 12 CFR 217.22(c)(4)(iv)(A), but is:
•
•

no longer held in connection with market making-related activities permitted under 12 CFR 248.4; or

Such an institution must also report its aggregate investment in excluded covered debt instruments that exceeds 5
percent of the institution's common equity tier 1 capital calculated as follows:
(1) Determine the aggregate amount of investments in excluded covered debt instruments measured on a gross
long basis in accordance with 12 CFR 217.22(h)(2).
(2) If the amount in (1) is greater than 5 percent of the amount reported in Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 12, column B,
report the difference in this item 43.
(4) Non-significant investments in tier 2 capital and covered debt instruments of unconsolidated financial
institutions that exceed the 10 percent threshold for non-significant investments.
A global systemically important BHC, as defined in 12 CFR 217.2, or a Board-regulated holding company that is a

(iii) IHCs of foreign GSIBs - has been identified as a resolution IHC pursuant to 12 CFR 252.164:
Report the IHC's TLAC risk-weighted buffer as a percentage, rounded to four decimal places, which is calculated as:
The IHC's common equity tier 1 capital ratio (the lower of Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 47, Column A and Column B, if
applicable) (expressed as a percentage) minus the greater of zero and the following amount:
(1)

18 percent; minus

(2) The ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the IHC's additional tier 1 capital (as reported on Schedule HC-R,
Part I, item 25), minus any additional tier 1 minority interest (as reported on Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 22), to its
total risk-weighted assets (the larger of Schedule HC-R, Part I, items 46.a and 46.b, if applicable); and minus
(3) The ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the IHC's outstanding eligible long-term debt amount (as reported
on Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 54) to total risk-weighted assets (the larger of Schedule HC-R, Part I, items 46.a and
46.b, if applicable).
If the TLAC total risk weighted asset ratio, as reported in line item 56, Column B, or, if applicable, item 57, Column B,
are less than or equal to 18 percent, the IHC's TLAC risk-weighted buffer level should be reported as zero.
Line item 62(b) TLAC leverage buffer.
Line item 62(b) should only be reported by top-tier BHCs of U.S. GSIBs.
In order to avoid limitations on distributions, including dividend payments, and certain discretionary bonus payments
to executive officers, a top-tier BHC of a U.S. GSIB must hold a TLAC buffer above its minimum leverage TLAC
requirements greater than 2.0 percent.
Otherwise, the top-tier BHC of a U.S. GSIB will face limitations on distributions and certain discretionary bonus
payments and will be required to complete Schedule HC-R Part I, items 66 through 69.
Report the top-tier BHC's TLAC leverage buffer as a percentage, rounded to four decimal places, which is calculated
as:
The top-tier BHC's supplementary leverage ratio (as reported on Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 53) (expressed as a
percentage), minus the greater of zero and the following amount:
(1)

7.5 percent; minus

(2) The ratio (expressed as a percentage) of the top-tier BHC's outstanding eligible external long-term debt
amount to total leverage exposure (as reported on Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 59, Column A).
If the TLAC supplementary leverage ratio, as reported in line item 59, Column B, is less than or equal to 7.5 percent,
the top-tier BHC's external TLAC leverage buffer level should be reported as zero.
Leverage Buffer and Requirements for Holding Companies Subject to the Capital Plan Rule
Line Item 63 Total leverage exposure for the supplementary leverage ratio (SLR) (if applicable)
Advanced approaches and Category III holding companies must report the total leverage exposure from FFIEC 101
Schedule A, Table 2, Item 2.21.
Line Item 64 Leverage buffer requirement (if applicable)
All GSIB holding companies report 2.0000 percent.

9

All non-GSIB holding companies report 0.0000 percent.
Line Item 65 Leverage ratio buffer (if applicable)
For all GSIB holding companies, report the leverage buffer as a percentage, rounded to four decimal places, if
applicable, from FFIEC 101 Schedule A, Table 2, Item 2.23.
The leverage buffer is equal to Schedule HC-R, item 53, less 3.0000 percent, which is the minimum leverage buffer
requirement under section 10(a)(5) of the regulatory capital rules. However, if the holding company’s leverage buffer
calculated above is less than zero (i.e., is negative), the holding company’s leverage buffer is zero.
Maximum Payout Ratios and Amounts for Holding Companies Subject to the Capital Plan Rule:
Note: The instructions for this item 66 were changed to reflect the final rule to change the definition of eligible retained
income (see 85 FR 63423).
Line Item 66 Eligible retained income.
Report the amount of eligible retained income as the greater of (1) a holding company’s net income for the four
preceding calendar quarters, net of any distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income,
and (2) the average of holding company’s net income over the four preceding calendar quarters. (See the instructions
for Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 52, for the definition of “distributions” from section 2 of the regulatory capital rules.)
For Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 66, the four preceding calendar quarters refers to the calendar quarter ending on the
last date of the reporting period and the three preceding calendar quarters as illustrated in the example below. The
average of an holding company’s net income over the four preceding calendar quarters refers to aver-age of threemonth net income for the calendar quarter ending on the last date of the reporting period and the three-month net
income for the three preceding calendar quarters as illustrated in the example below.
Example and a worksheet calculation:
Assumptions:
• Eligible retained income is calculated for FR Y-9C report date of March 31, 2021.
• The holding company reported the following on its FR Y-9C in Schedule HI, Income Statement, item 14, “Net
income (loss) attributable to holding company (item 12 minus item 13)”:
FR Y-9C

• The distributions and associated tax effects not already reflected in net income (e.g., dividends declared on the
holding company’s common stock between April 1, 2020, and March 31, 2021) in this example are $400 per each of
the four preceding calendar quarters.

Calculate a holding company’s net income for the four
preceding calendar quarters, net of any distributions and
associated tax effects not already reflected in net income
Calculate the average of a holding company’s three-month
net income over the four preceding calendar quarters
Take the greater of step (1) and step (2) and report in
Schedule HC-R, Part I, item 51.

$100 + $200 + $0+ ($200) =
$100
($500 + $600 +$400 + $200) / 4
= $425*
$425

* From a practical perspective, a holding company can use the year-to-date net income reflected in Schedule HI, item
14, for December 31, 2020, subtract from it the net income reflected in Schedule HI, item 14, for March 31, 2020, and
then add the net income in Schedule HI, item 14, for March 31, 2021 to calculate the numerator in the step 2, above.
For the example above, the average of a holding company’s three-month net income over the four preceding
calendar quarters: ($1,900 (D) less $400 (A) plus $200 (E)) divided by 4 = $425.
Line Item 67 Maximum payout ratio
(i) Global systemically important BHCs, as defined in 12 CFR 217.2:
Report the maximum payout ratio for the reporting institution, which corresponds to the lowest ratio determined by its
(1) standardized approach capital conservation buffer, advanced approaches capital conservation buffer, and
leverage buffer, as set forth in Table 2 to 12 CFR 217.11; (2) the external TLAC risk-weighted buffer, as set forth in
Table 1 to 12 CFR 252.63; and (3) the TLAC leverage buffer, as set forth in Table 2 to 12 CFR 252.63.
(ii) Intermediate holding companies that are required to be established pursuant to 12 CFR 252.153 and are
controlled by global systemically important foreign banking organizations, as defined in 12 CFR 252.2 (IHCs
of foreign GSIBs):
Report the maximum payout ratio for the reporting institution, which corresponds to the lowest ratio determined by its
(1) standardized approach capital conservation buffer, advanced approaches capital conservation buffer, and
leverage buffer, as set forth in Table 2 to 12 CFR 217.11; and (2) the Covered IHC TLAC buffer, as set forth in Table
1 to 12 CFR 252.165.
(iii) All other holding companies subject to the Capital Plan Rule:
Report the maximum payout ratio for the reporting institution, which corresponds to the lowest ratio deter-mined by its
standardized approach capital conservation buffer; if applicable, advanced approaches capital conservation buffer;
and, if applicable, leverage buffer; as set forth in Table 2 to 12 CFR 217.11.
Line Item 68 Maximum payout amount
Report the maximum payout amount, equal to the holding company’s eligible retained income (item 66) multi-plied by
the maximum payout ratio reported in item 67.
For example, in order to determine the maximum payout amount that a firm may pay in capital distributions and
discretionary bonus payments for the second quarter of 2021, a firm would multiply its applicable maximum payout
ratio by its eligible retained income. The eligible retained income used to calculate the maximum payout amount for
the period from April 1, 2021 to June 30, 2021 would be based on the firm’s net income for the four calendar quarters
ending on March 31, 2021 and the maximum payout ratio would be determined based on the capital or TLAC ratios,
as applicable, of the firm as of March 31, 2020 (as described in item 67). Firms that are subject to stress buffer
requirements are expected to know their capital positions on a daily basis. If a firm has any uncertainty regarding its
quarter-end capital ratios prior to filing its regulatory reports, it should be conservative with capital distributions
(including buybacks) during the beginning of a calendar quarter in order to avoid a situation in which it distributes
more than the amount permitted under the capital rule.
Line Item 69 Distributions and discretionary bonus payments during the quarter.
Report the amount of distributions and discretionary bonus payments made during the calendar quarter ending on the
report date.
For example, for purposes of the December 31, 2020, report date, report in item 69 the distributions and discretionary
bonus payments made during the quarter ending December 31, 2020. See instructions for item 52 above for the
definition of “distribution.”
