General Description of Collection: The supplementary leverage ratio regulations strengthen the definition of total leverage exposure and improve the measure of a banking organization’s on and off-balance sheet exposures. All banking organizations that are subject to the advanced approaches risk-based capital rules are required to disclose their supplementary leverage ratios. Advanced approaches banking organizations must report their supplementary leverage ratios on the applicable regulatory reports. The calculation and disclosure requirements for the supplementary leverage ratio in the federal banking agencies’ regulatory capital rules are generally consistent with international standards published by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. These disclosures enhance the transparency and consistency of reporting requirements for the supplementary leverage ratio by all internationally active organizations. There is no change in the methodology or substance of this information collection. The increase in total estimated annual burden from 40 hours in 2018 to 100 hours currently is due to economic factors as reflected in the increase in estimated number of respondents.
