  • Credible Living Wills: the First Generation
    CREDIBLE LIVING WILLS: THE FIRST GENERATION Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP and McKinsey & Company1 April 25, 2011 Executive Summary The post-financial crisis era has seen a paradigm shift in the regulation of the financial services industry. Systemically important financial institutions are becoming subject to new regulatory requirements in multiple areas including increased capital and liquidity requirements, mandatory stress tests, restrictions on their activities, higher prudential standards and recapitalization or wind-down mechanisms. Enhanced planning for the risk of failure is an important element of the new regulatory paradigm. Supervisors from the United States, the European Union and the Group of Twenty (G20) are developing requirements for systemically important financial institutions to create credible living wills. These plans will include key information about the firm and set forth actions that could be taken to reduce idiosyncratic losses and to mitigate systemic contagion in the event of financial distress, up to and including the insolvency or failure of the firm. In some ways, living wills are analogous to contingency planning for public emergencies that arise when a hurricane, earthquake or other natural disaster strikes. Even though human choices are the underlying causes of financial panics, financial panics are also like natural disasters because they have occurred repeatedly, suddenly, unpredictably and destructively throughout the history of financial markets. The rationale behind the living will is that, like contingency planning for an emergency, pre-planning could reduce the likelihood of future crises or at least enhance the ability of firms and supervisors to respond to a crisis. A concern with the living wills process is that, like a poorly designed contingency plan, it could be used to impose changes that are intended to reduce systemic risk but which are neither risk mitigating nor efficient.

  • Occ Advisory Letter
    AL 2004–5 O OCC ADVISORY LETTER Comptroller of the Currency Administrator of National Banks Potential Liability of Financial Institutions for Securities Law Subject: Violations Arising from Deceptive Structured Finance Products and Transactions TO: Chief Executive Officers and Compliance Officers of All National Banks, Department and Division Heads, and All Examining Personnel PURPOSE The attached letter dated December 4, 2003, from Annette L. Nazareth, director for the Division of Market Regulation at the U. S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) provides guidance to bank regulators on the potential liability of financial institutions for securities law violations arising from deceptive structured finance products and transactions. Ms. Nazareth’s letter includes an internal SEC memorandum that discusses (1) the principal types of securities law violations that can arise from the use of deceptive structured finance products and transactions and (2) the manner in which financial institutions that offer such deceptive products, or participate in such transactions, may be liable for these violations. As the SEC notes in its memorandum, “The types of securities law violations that may arise from the use of deceptive structured finance products and transactions depend upon the unique facts and circumstances of each case.” While not exhaustive, the attached SEC memorandum provides a list of the principal categories of securities laws and violations that arise from common fact patterns, and this list includes antifraud violations, reporting violations, and reporting and internal control violations. Office of the Comptroller of the Currency examiners should be alert to the factors highlighted in the SEC memorandum when examining structured finance products and transactions at a national bank.
