15:04 EDTGS, MSFed says large banks must submit midyear stress tests on July 5
Eighteen large U.S. bank holding companies are required to submit the results of their company-run, midyear stress tests to the Federal Reserve on July 5, the Federal Reserve said. The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act required that large bank holding companies and non-bank financial institutions that are designated for Federal Reserve supervision by the Financial Stability Oversight Council conduct two stress tests each year. In the midyear test, which is being conducted for the first time in 2013, each firm develops its own baseline, adverse, and severely adverse scenarios to best reflect its individual operations and risks. Each firm in the midyear test is required to release the results produced under its severely adverse scenario, helping promote market discipline and understanding of the financial conditions and risks of individual firms, between September 15 and September 30, the Fed added.
