Policy area: Finance and Financial Sector

Summary:
Financial Data Transparency Act of 2022
This bill requires federal financial regulatory agencies to adopt specified data standards with respect to format, searchability, and transparency.
The bill also decreases, beginning September 30, 2031, the cap on the surplus funds of the Federal Reserve banks. (Amounts exceeding this cap are deposited in the general fund of the Treasury.)
The Government Accountability Office must report on the feasibility of applying the taxonomy established by this bill to the wider federal government.

To amend securities and banking laws to make the information reported 
to financial regulatory agencies electronically searchable, to further 
   enable the development of regulatory technologies and artificial 
 intelligence applications, to put the United States on a path towards 
    building a comprehensive Standard Business Reporting program to 
    ultimately harmonize and reduce the private sector's regulatory 
compliance burden, while enhancing transparency and accountability, and 
                          for other purposes.

    Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the
