U.S. Regulators Reconsider 20% Capital Hike for Big Banks Amid Lobbying Efforts: WSJ Reports
May 20, 2024, 12:55 PM
U.S. regulators, including the Federal Reserve, are reconsidering a proposed capital increase for the nation's largest banks. Initially, the proposal mandated a nearly 20% increase in capital reserves. However, following intense lobbying efforts led by JPMorgan Chase's CEO Jamie Dimon, the required increases are now expected to be about half of the original proposal. This reconsideration, reported by WSJ, comes amid broader regulatory adjustments being discussed by Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michael Barr, who has indicated that regulators are exploring targeted adjustments to existing liquidity rules. The adjustments could potentially impact how much liquidity banks must hold and their reliance on certain types of deposits. This move is part of the ongoing discussions around the “Basel end game” rules.
