The US House of Representatives voted 288-130 in favor of the Systemic Risk Designation Improvement Act of 2017 (H.R. 3312). The bill, introduced on July 19, 2017 and sponsored by Representative Blaine Luetkemeyer, removes the $50 billion asset-threshold under the Dodd-Frank Act. In place of this automatic designation, certain Dodd-Frank provisions will now apply only to institutions designated as global systemically important bank holding companies and other bank holding companies that have been designated by the US Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System as warranting enhanced supervision and/or enhanced prudential standards.
