Barr stated that the proposal is entering a revision phase after extensive review and feedback, recognizing the necessity for broad material changes to better balance the benefits and costs of increased capital requirements.
In addressing the Basel III Endgame proposal, Barr specified that while large banks with assets between $100 billion and $250 billion won't have the credit and operational risk frameworks imposed, they will still face regulatory capital rules addressing unrealized losses and certain aspects of accumulated other comprehensive income.
The proposed changes aim to adjust the risk weights for residential real estate and retail exposures, as well as to extend lower risk weights for select low-risk corporate debt, enhancing the overall balance of the capital requirements.
Barr also emphasized that incremental increases in capital requirements would lead to a stronger banking sector, indicating a conscientious approach to safeguarding financial stability whilst accommodating institutions' operational capacities.
