This plan involves a revision of capital surcharges for the eight largest banks and initiation of data collection from affected entities. The proposals have sparked a conflict with the banking industry over concerns of reduced competitiveness due to enhanced financial stability measures.
Banks with assets over $100 billion are projected to increase their capital reserves by approximately 16%, with the top eight banks facing a 19% rise in capital requirements. This is part of an effort to bolster financial stability and prevent future crises similar to that of 2008.
