On April 16, the OCC released a request for comment on proposed revisions to its “Reporting and Recordkeeping Requirements Associated with Liquidity Coverage Ratio: Liquidity Risk Measurement, Standards, and Monitoring” to account for three new recordkeeping requirements to be included in 12 CFR part 50, which applies to large national banks and Federal savings associations. The notice outlined steps that such institutions should take to ensure they properly document compliance with the “liquidity coverage ratio” (LCR), which is designed to “promote the short-term resilience” of a bank’s liquidity risk profile, and the “net stable funding ratio” (NSFR), which is designed to reduce disruptions to a bank’s funding sources. The revised reporting obligations require covered institutions to self-report when LCR falls below the minimum threshold or when there is an NSFR shortfall and, in some cases, to submit a liquidity or remediation plan, including estimated time frame for resuming compliance with LCR or NSFR requirements. The recordkeeping revisions require covered entities to, among other things, establish and maintain written policies and procedures for a number of processes, including monitoring changes in relevant laws related to master netting agreements, determine the composition of its eligible high-quality liquid assets (HQLA), and ensure consistent treatment for determining eligible HQLA. Comments must be received by June 17.
