SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
OMB for each collection of information
that they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined
in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) to include agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or disclose
information to a third party. The OCC
asks that OMB extend its approval of the
collection in this notice.
Title: Annual Stress Test Rule.
OMB Control No.: 1557–0343.
Type of Review: Regular review.
Abstract: The annual stress test rule 1
implemented Section 165(i) of the
Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and
Consumer Protection Act 2 (‘‘DoddFrank Act’’) which requires certain
companies to conduct stress tests. As
enacted by the Dodd-Frank Act, national
banks and Federal savings associations
with total consolidated assets of more
than $10 billion were required to
conduct annual stress tests and comply
with reporting and disclosure
requirements under the rule. The
reporting templates for institutions with
total consolidated assets of over $50
billion were finalized in 2012.3
Section 165(i)(2) of the Dodd-Frank
Act required certain financial
companies, including national banks
and Federal savings associations, to
conduct annual stress tests 4 and
requires the primary financial regulatory
agency 5 of those financial companies to
issue regulations implementing the
stress test requirements.6
Under section 165(i)(2), a covered
institution was required to submit to the
Board of Governors of the Federal
Reserve System (Board) and to its
primary financial regulatory agency a
report at such time, in such form, and
containing such information as the
primary financial regulatory agency may
require.7
The Economic Growth, Regulatory
Relief, and Consumer Protection Act
(EGRRCPA), enacted on May 24, 2018,
amended certain aspects of the
1 77
FR 61238 (October 9, 2012).

Protection Act, Public Law 111–203, 124 Stat. 1376

company-run stress testing requirement
in section 165(i)(2) of the Dodd-Frank
Act.8 Specifically, section 401 of
EGRRCPA raises the minimum asset
threshold for financial companies
covered by the company-run stress
testing requirement from $10 billion to
$250 billion in total consolidated assets;
revises the requirement for banks to
conduct stress tests ‘‘annually’’ and
instead requires them to conduct stress
tests ‘‘periodically’’; and no longer
requires the OCC to provide an
‘‘adverse’’ stress-testing scenario, thus
reducing the number of required stress
test scenarios from three to two.
The OCC uses the information to
assess the reasonableness of the stress
test results and provide forward-looking
information to the OCC regarding a
covered institution’s capital adequacy.
The OCC also may use stress test results
to determine whether additional
analytical techniques and exercises
could be appropriate to identify,
measure, and monitor risks at the
covered institution. The stress test
results support ongoing improvement in
a covered institution’s stress testing
practices with respect to its internal
assessments of capital adequacy and
overall capital planning.
Under 12 CFR 46.6(c), each covered
institution is required to establish and
maintain a system of controls, oversight,
and documentation, including policies
and procedures, describing the covered
institution’s stress test practices and
methodologies, and processes for
validating and updating the covered
institution’s stress test practices. The
board of directors of the covered
institution must approve and review
these policies at least annually. Section
46.7(a) requires each covered institution
to report the results of their stress tests
to the OCC annually. Section 46.8(a)
requires that a covered institution
publish a summary of the results of its
annual stress tests on its website or in
any other forum that is reasonably
accessible to the public.
The 2019 increase in the applicability
threshold for these requirements 9
reduced the estimated number of
respondents. In addition, the frequency
of these reporting, recordkeeping, and
disclosure requirements for some
institutions were scaled back to
biennial.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit.
Estimated Annual Burden: 6,240
Hours.
Frequency of Response: Annual or
biannual.
Comments: On June 30, 2022, the
OCC published a 60-day notice for this
information collection, 87 FR 39159. No
comments were received. Comments
continue to be solicited on:
(a) Whether the collections of
information are necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
OCC, including whether the information
has practical utility;
(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s
estimates of the information collection
burden;
(c) Ways to enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected;
(d) Ways to minimize the burden of
the collection on respondents, including
