Randal Quarles

The central bank, which received broad authority after the crisis to supervise big banks, is expected to get more attention from lawmakers over its discretion to ease banks’ burden.

Randal Quarles was considered for Financial Stability Board chair spot; the outgoing student loan ombudsman says the agency puts lenders before consumers.

As the state phases in tougher requirements from its 2017 regulation, federal agencies continue to show an interest in updating their cyber policies.

Lawmakers fear that regional banks could still get stung as the central bank implements a new law meant to ease their burden.

The Federal Reserve’s forthcoming rules for banks with assets of $100 billion-$250 billion hinge on their perceived risk to the financial system.

The letter from 29 Republicans, including some who may chair the House Financial Services Committee next year, urges the Federal Reserve’s top regulator to "recalibrate" the capital surcharge for banks like JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup.

The Fed’s top regulator is reportedly gunning to run the international Financial Stability Board, but the president's trade wars and recent criticism of Europe are impeding that effort and weakening U.S. regulators' hand more generally.

The Fed's top regulatory official suggested that some banks could get a break from filing resolution plans and see the frequency of their stress tests reduced.

The Senate voted 66-33 to approve Federal Reserve Vice Chairman for Supervision Randal Quarles for a full 14-year term on the central bank's board.

The president’s signature tax reform law muddled this year’s stress test results, causing several banks to incur greater-than-expected losses and spurring the Federal Reserve to constrain capital distributions at a handful of banks.

All 35 banks passed the Federal Reserve's first round of tests, but their results were not as stellar as last year's.

The rule hews closely to a 2016 proposal but the central bank made a notable change to reflect a higher threshold for banks considered "systemically important."

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said the agency has its hand full between proposals on liquidity and capital requirements and additional mandates made by the recently enacted regulatory relief law.

The agency will release the results of the Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test on June 21 and the Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review on June 28.

Long-awaited modifications to proprietary trading ban are to be unveiled at an open meeting on May 30.

Commenters will have more time to weigh in on the plan, by the Fed and OCC, that has triggered divisions among the federal regulators.

The Federal Reserve should think about dialing back its demand that foreign banks in the U.S. have an especially amplified ability to absorb losses, Vice Chairman Randal Quarles said at a Wednesday conference.

The Fed and FDIC are at odds over how proposed changes to the supplemental leverage ratio would change megabanks’ capital levels. Here's why both estimates are right but misleading.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell said Thursday that the central bank's board of governors will take a vote before Wells Fargo is ultimately released from its growth restriction mandate, a decision that had previously been left up to staff.

The Federal Reserve’s top regulator says proposed capital changes make system safer while overall capital levels are unchanged.
