- Regulatory Capital: Category I and II Banking Organizations, Banking Organizations with Significant Trading Activity, and Optional Adoption for Other Banking Organizations
The Providing Accountability through Transparency Act of 2023 (5 U.S.C. 553(b)(4)) requires that a notice of proposed rulemaking include the internet address of a summary of not more than 100 words in length of the proposed rule, in plain language, that shall be posted on the internet website under section 206(d) of the E-Government Act of 2002 (44 U.S.C. 3501 note). In summary, the bank regulatory agencies request comment on a proposal to revise the risk-based capital requirements that apply to the largest, most internationally active firms to substantially simplify the framework, better align minimum requirements with risk, improve the consistency of requirements across U.S. firms, consider overlaps with the stress capital buffer requirement, and align requirements with international standards while ensuring the framework accounts for specific features of U.S. markets. The proposal and such a summary can be found at https://www.regulations.gov by searching for Docket ID OCC–2026–0265 and https://occ.gov/topics/laws-and-regulations/occ-regulations/proposed-issuances/index-proposed-issuances.html, https://www.federalreserve.gov/supervisionreg/reglisting.htm, and https://www.fdic.gov/federal-register-publications.

- Jul 7, 2026Allianz TradeSupportBusiness📎 Attachment
Allianz Trade supports the proposed regulatory capital rules but urges the agencies to adopt specific recommendations from the ITFA/IACPM joint response. They argue that the final rules should recognize well-capitalized credit insurance providers as eligible guarantors to facilitate risk management and portfolio diversification.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026Secured Finance NetworkOpposeTrade association📎 Attachment
The Secured Finance Network (SFNet), a trade association representing financial institutions in asset-based lending, opposes the proposed rules because they fail to recognize the risk-mitigating value of nonfinancial collateral like receivables and inventory. They argue that the proposal will increase capital costs, discourage banks from providing vital working capital to small and medium-sized businesses, and ultimately harm the U.S. economy.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026Prime Mover InstituteSupportAdvocacy📎 Attachment
The Prime Mover Institute, a public interest organization, supports the proposed rule as a step toward objective, risk-based banking and ending "debanking" practices. They argue that the rule should include specific guardrails to prevent banks from using biased climate risk assessments to unfairly increase capital costs for energy-intensive industries.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026International Capital Market Association (ICMA) and International Securities Lending Association (ISLA)SupportAdvocacy📎 Attachment
The International Capital Market Association (ICMA) and the International Securities Lending Association (ISLA) submitted a joint comment supporting the recognition of modular, cross-product netting architectures within the Basel III Endgame framework. They argue that recognizing these existing industry-standard frameworks (like the CPMA) will preserve operational efficiency, accurately reflect net economic exposures, and maintain liquidity in the securities finance markets.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026BlackRock, Inc.SupportBusiness📎 Attachment
BlackRock, Inc. supports the proposed revisions to the U.S. capital framework to enhance risk sensitivity and transparency while aligning with Basel standards. However, they recommend specific adjustments to the risk-weighting of closed-end funds, business development companies, and high-quality project finance to avoid imposing undue costs or inhibiting financial intermediation.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026The Housing Policy CouncilSupportTrade association📎 Attachment
The Housing Policy Council, a trade association of mortgage lenders and insurers, supports the proposed rules for improving the capital treatment of mortgage-related assets. They argue the rules better align capital requirements with risk, specifically praising the LTV-based risk weight approach and the elimination of capital deductions for mortgage servicing assets.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026The Coalition for Derivatives End-UsersOpposeAdvocacy📎 Attachment
The Coalition for Derivatives End-Users, representing 94 companies and municipalities, opposes the proposed capital requirements because they impose undue costs on commercial hedging and create regulatory redundancies. They specifically argue for exemptions for commercial end-users from CVA risk capital requirements and the retention of the SA-CCR alpha multiplier to maintain a competitive advantage for U.S. firms.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026Committee on Capital Markets RegulationSupportAdvocacy📎 Attachment
The Committee on Capital Markets Regulation, an independent research organization, broadly supports the proposed Basel III "finalization" reforms to improve the alignment of capital requirements with bank risks. They argue that the proposals will enhance the ability of banks to support U.S. financial markets and the real economy while maintaining a resilient capital framework.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026Arch Capital Group Ltd.SupportBusiness📎 Attachment
Arch Capital Group, Ltd. supports the proposed risk-based capital requirements but argues that the current proposals fail to sufficiently recognize the loss-mitigating benefits of private mortgage insurance (MI). The company advocates for specific amendments that allow banks to recognize MI coverage (subject to a counterparty haircut), permit insurance-based credit risk transfer (CRT), and lower risk weights for prudentially regulated eligible guarantors to improve bank participation in the mortgage market.
Read comment → - Jun 18, 2026Cboe Global MarketsSupportBusiness📎 Attachment
Cboe Global Markets expresses support for the proposed revisions to the regulatory capital framework, particularly the exclusion of derivative exposures from client clearing from the CVA capital charge and the allowance for netting certain contracts. However, the organization requests further revisions to allow the decomposition of index and ETF options to avoid unnecessary capital charges for market makers.
