Through a final rule, the OCC, FRB, and FDIC are revising the denominator of the supplementary leverage ratio. The rule: (i) revises the treatment of on- and off-balance sheet exposures for purposes of determining total leverage exposure, and more closely align the agencies' rules on the calculation of total leverage exposure with international leverage ratio standards; (ii) incorporates in total leverage exposure the effective notional principal amount of credit derivatives and other similar instruments through which a banking organization provides sold credit protection; (iii) modifies the calculation of total leverage exposure for derivatives and repo-style transactions; (iv) revises the credit conversion factors applied to certain off-balance sheet exposures; and (v) makes changes to the methodology for calculating the supplementary leverage ratio and adds public disclosure requirements for the supplementary leverage ratio. This ICR requests OMB approval for these new disclosure requirements.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that the collection of information encompassed by this request complies with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR 1320.8(b)(3).
