TREAS/OCC RIN: 1557-AD46 Publication ID: Fall 2011 
Title: Strengthening Tier 1 Capital Other Capital Enhancements, Standardized Approach (Basel III) 
Abstract: The Federal banking agencies plan to amend their current capital rules, including revisions to the definition of Tier 1 capital and the leverage capital ratio. This rule would implement a comprehensive set of revisions issued by the Basel Committee in December 2010 to amend the Basel II Capital Framework. Key components of the rule include: revisions to the definition of Tier 1, the addition of a capital conservation buffer, the addition of a countercyclical buffer, revisions to counterparty credit risk requirements (includes central counterparties), a new international leverage ratio, and new liquidity ratio requirements. This rule will also include the rule previously listed under RIN 1550-AC43, 1557-AD55, and 1557-AD35, for which an ANPRM has previously been issued (Alternatives to the Use of External Credit Ratings in the Regulatory Capital Guidelines of the Federal Banking Agencies).
