 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service

This bill amends the Federal Deposit Insurance Act, the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, and the Home Owners' Loan Act to exclude initial client margin funds (i.e., funds lent to a client by a broker to facilitate a derivatives contract) from leverage-exposure calculations for purposes of determining whether an insured depository institution, a bank holding company, or a savings and loan holding company is in compliance with federal leverage-based capital standards.
