General description of report: These collections of information are applicable to top-tier BHCs with total consolidated assets of $100 billion or more and U.S. IHCs. This family of information collections is composed of the following three reports:
The semi-annual FR Y-14A, which collects quantitative projections of balance sheet, income, losses, and capital across a range of macroeconomic scenarios, and qualitative information on methodologies used to develop internal projections of capital across scenarios.\1\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ Firms that must re-submit their capital plan generally also must provide a revised FR Y-14A in connection with their resubmission. See 12 CFR 225.8(d)(4).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The quarterly FR Y-14Q, which collects granular data on various asset classes, including loans, securities, trading assets, and pre-provision net revenue (PPNR) for the reporting period.
The monthly FR Y-14M, which is comprised of three retail portfolio- and loan-level schedules, and one detailed address matching schedule to supplement two of the portfolio- and loan-level schedules.
Respondent firms are currently required to submit up to 18 filings each year: 2 semi-annual FR Y-14A filings, 4 quarterly FR Y-14Q filings, and 12 monthly FR Y-14M filings.
Legal authorization and confidentiality: The FR Y-14 A/Q/M reports are mandatory. The Board has the authority to require BHCs to file the FR Y-14A/Q/M reports pursuant to section 5 of the Bank Holding Company Act (BHC Act) (12 U.S.C. 1844), and to require the U.S. IHCs of Foreign Banking Organizations to file the FR Y-14 A/Q/M reports pursuant to section 5 of the BHC Act, in conjunction with section 8 of the International Banking Act (12 U.S.C. 3106).
The information collected in these reports is collected as part of the Board's supervisory process, and therefore is afforded confidential treatment pursuant to exemption 8 of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(8)). In addition, individual respondents may request that certain data be afforded confidential treatment pursuant to exemption 4 of FOIA if the data has not previously been publically disclosed and the release of the data would likely cause substantial harm to the competitive position of the respondent (5 U.S.C. 552(b)(4)). Determinations of confidentiality based on exemption 4 of FOIA would be made on a case-by-case basis.
Current actions: On August 8, 2018, the Board published a notice in the Federal Register (83 FR 39093) requesting public comment for 60 days on the revision, without extension, of the Capital Assessments and Stress Testing (FR Y-14A/Q/M). The Board proposed revising sub-schedule L.5 (Derivatives and SFT Profile) of the FR Y-14Q, Schedule L (Counterparty) by adding back mistakenly omitted items for total stressed net current exposure to be reported under the two supervisory stressed scenarios. With the addition of these items, the instructions would be

changed to modify the associated ranking methodologies for the yearly stressed/CCAR submission in sub-schedule L.5 to require the top 25 counterparties to be reported as ranked by the total stressed net current exposure. The comment period for this notice expired on October 9, 2018. The Board received one comment from a banking organization. The commenter requested that the Board adopt these changes and publish the associated materials as soon as possible in order to provide adequate time to implement and test the changes. The Board strives to provide as much time as possible in advance of the effective date for firms to implement revisions. The draft forms and instructions were made available with the publication of the initial notice. The revisions, including draft forms and instructions, will be implemented as proposed as of December 31, 2018.
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, November 15, 2018.
Yao-Chin Chao,
Assistant Secretary of the Board.
