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. Section 

3506(c)(2)(A) of title 44 requires Federal 

agencies to provide a 60-day notice in 

the Federal Register concerning each 

proposed collection of information, 

including each proposed revision of an 

existing collection of information, 

before submitting the collection to OMB 

for approval. To comply with this 

requirement, the OCC is publishing this 

notice. 

Title: Annual Stress Test Rule. 

OMB Control No.: 1557–0343. 

Type of Review: Regular review. 

Description: 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 annual stress 

tests. 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 

Wall Street Reform and Consumer 

Protection Act (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 

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 the results of the 

stress tests 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 decreased to biennial. 

Affected Public: Businesses or other 

for-profit. 

Estimated Annual Burden: 6,240 

Hours. 

Frequency of Response: Annual. 

Comments: 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 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 

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.
