Title: Supervisory Guidance on Stress 

Testing for Banking Organizations with 

Total Consolidated Assets of More Than 

$10 Billion. 

OMB Control No.: 1557–0312. 

Description: On May 17, 2012, the 

OCC, along with the Federal Deposit 

Insurance Corporation (FDIC) and the 

Board of Governors of the Federal 

Reserve (FRB), published guidance in 

the Federal Register on the use of stress 

testing as a means to better understand 

the range of a banking organization’s 1

potential risk exposures.2 The OCC is 

now seeking to renew the information 

collection associated with that 

guidance. 

The guidance provides an overview of 

how a banking organization should 

structure its stress testing activities to 

ensure that those activities fit into the 

banking organization’s overall risk 

management. The purpose of the 

guidance is to outline broad principles 

for a satisfactory stress testing 

framework and describe how stress 

testing should be used. While the 

guidance is not intended to provide 

detailed instructions for conducting 

stress testing for any particular risk or 

business area, it does describe several 

types of stress testing activities and how 

they may be most appropriately used by 

banking organizations. The guidance 

also does not explicitly address the 

stress testing requirements imposed 

upon certain banking organizations by 

section 165(i) of the Dodd-Frank Wall 

Street Reform and Consumer Protection 

Act.3

Type of Review: Regular. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit. 

Estimated Number of Respondents: 

62. 

Estimated annual burden: 16,120 

hours. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and 

included in the request for OMB 

approval. All comments will become a 

matter of public record. Comments are 

invited on: 

(a) Whether the collections of 

information are necessary for the proper 

performance of the OCC’s functions, 

including whether the information has 

practical utility; 

(b) The accuracy of the OCC’s 

estimates of the burden of the 

information collections, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

(c) Ways to enhance the quality, 

utility, and clarity of the information to 

be collected; 

(d) Ways to minimize the burden of 

information collections on respondents, 

including through the use of automated 

collection techniques or other forms of 

information technology; and 

(e) Estimates of capital or start-up 

costs and costs of operation, 

maintenance, and purchase of services 

to provide information.
