The Fed is changing bank stress tests to disclose secret models, boosting transparency but sparking concerns over test credibility.
The U.S. Federal Reserve is overhauling its annual stress tests for large banks to increase transparency by disclosing previously confidential models and scenario methodologies.
The changes, approved by the Fed’s Board of Governors, aim to reduce uncertainty and improve predictability, addressing industry complaints about opacity.

The reforms, part of post-2008 crisis regulations, will undergo public comment before finalization.
