flag US regulators cut major banks' capital rules to 3-4% to boost Treasury market involvement, effective April 2026.

flag US regulators finalized changes to the enhanced supplementary leverage ratio, lowering capital requirements for major banks to a 3-4% range to boost participation in Treasury markets. flag The rule, effective April 1, 2026, reduces Tier 1 capital needs by billions, with minimal impact on overall capital levels. flag While the move aims to improve financial stability and lending, Fed Governors Cook and Barr opposed it, citing risks to system resilience. flag The update modifies related rules and includes inflation-indexed adjustments, with smaller banks also receiving simplified capital standards.
