Fed finalizes changes to bank stress tests

Original: Fed finalizes stress-test changes

The Federal Reserve has finalized changes to its bank stress-testing framework, the annual exercise that measures whether large lenders can withstand severe economic shocks. The move follows earlier proposals to reduce volatility in test results and give banks more time to adjust to capital requirements. Banking industry groups have welcomed efforts to smooth requirements, while some critics caution that softer tests could leave the financial system less prepared for a downturn.

Why now: The Fed's final rule affects capital requirements for major US banks, drawing attention from the banking industry and regulators.
