The Board’s GSIB surcharge rule establishes a methodology to identify global systemically important bank holding companies in the United States (GSIBs) based on indicators that are correlated with systemic importance.1 Under the GSIB surcharge rule, a firm must calculate its GSIB score using a specific formula (Method 1). Method 1 uses five equally weighted categories that are correlated with systemic importance— size, interconnectedness, crossjurisdictional activity, substitutability, SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: and complexity—and subdivided into twelve systemic indicators. A firm divides its own measure of each systemic indicator by an aggregate global indicator amount. A firm’s Method 1 score is the sum of its weighted systemic indicator scores expressed in basis points. The GSIB surcharge for a firm is the higher of the GSIB surcharge determined under Method 1 and a second method, Method 2, which weighs size, interconnectedness, cross-jurisdictional activity, complexity, and a measure of the firm’s reliance on short-term wholesale funding.2 The aggregate global indicator amounts used in the score calculation under Method 1 are based on data collected by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS). The BCBS amounts are determined based on the sum of the systemic indicator amounts as reported by the 75 largest U.S. and foreign banking organizations as measured by the BCBS, and any other banking organization that the BCBS includes in its sample total for that year. The BCBS publicly releases these amounts, denominated in euros, each year.3 Pursuant to the GSIB surcharge rule, the Board publishes the aggregate global indicator amounts each year as denominated in U.S. dollars using the euro-dollar exchange rate provided by the BCBS.4 Specifically, to determine the 2021 aggregate global indicator amounts, the Board multiplied each of the euro-denominated indicator amounts made publicly available by the BCBS by 1.2271, which was the daily euro to U.S. dollar spot rate on December 31, 2020, as published by the European Central Bank.5 The aggregate global indicator amounts for purposes of the 2021 Method 1 score calculation under § 217.404(b)(1)(i)(B) of the GSIB surcharge rule are: AGGREGATE GLOBAL INDICATOR AMOUNTS IN U.S. DOLLARS (USD) FOR 2021 Systemic indicator Size ...............................................................

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Board's GSIB surcharge rule establishes 
a methodology to identify global systemically important bank holding 
companies in the United States (GSIBs) based on indicators that are 
correlated with systemic importance.\1\ Under the GSIB surcharge rule, 
a firm must calculate its GSIB score using a specific formula (Method 
1). Method 1 uses five equally weighted categories that are correlated 
with systemic importance--size, interconnectedness, cross-
jurisdictional activity, substitutability, and complexity--and 
subdivided into twelve systemic indicators. A firm divides its own 
measure of each systemic indicator by an aggregate global indicator 
amount. A firm's Method 1 score is the sum of its weighted systemic 
indicator scores expressed in basis points. The GSIB surcharge for a 
firm is the higher of the GSIB surcharge determined under Method 1 and 
a second method, Method 2, which weighs size, interconnectedness, 
cross-jurisdictional activity, complexity, and a measure of the firm's 
reliance on short-term wholesale funding.\2\
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ See 12 CFR 217.402, 217.404.
    \2\ Method 2 uses similar inputs to those used in Method 1, but 
replaces the substitutability category with a measure of a firm's 
use of short-term wholesale funding. In addition, Method 2 is 
calibrated differently from Method 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The aggregate global indicator amounts used in the score 
calculation under Method 1 are based on data collected by the Basel 
Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS). The BCBS amounts are 
determined based on the sum of the systemic indicator amounts as 
reported by the 75 largest U.S. and foreign banking organizations as 
measured by the BCBS, and any other banking organization that the BCBS 
includes in its sample total for that year. The BCBS publicly releases 
these amounts, denominated in euros, each year.\3\ Pursuant to the GSIB 
surcharge rule, the Board publishes the aggregate global indicator 
amounts each year as denominated in U.S. dollars using the euro-dollar 
exchange rate provided by the BCBS.\4\ Specifically, to determine the 
2021 aggregate global indicator amounts, the Board multiplied each of 
the euro-denominated indicator amounts made publicly available by the 
BCBS by 1.2271, which was the daily euro to U.S. dollar spot rate on 
December 31, 2020, as published by the European Central Bank.\5\

    \3\ The data used by the Board are available on the BCBS website 
at https://www.bis.org/bcbs/gsib/denominators.htm.

14, 2015). In addition, the Board maintains the GSIB Framework 
Denominators on its website, available at https://www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/basel/denominators.htm.
