H.R. 5323, Derivatives Fairness Act (CBO Report for Congress)

Premium   Download PDF Now (3 pages)
Congress 115th
Date Requested March 21, 2018
Requested By House Committee on Financial Services
Date Sent June 1, 2018
Description:

H.R. 5323 would prohibit the federal financial regulators from requiring banks to hold capital against certain derivative contracts. Under current law, the calculation of a bank’s capital requirement includes amounts for some derivative contracts.

 

CBO estimates that implementing H.R. 5323 would, on net, increase the deficit by $2 million over the 2019-2028 period. That estimate includes an increase in direct spending of $2 million and an increase in revenues of less than $500,000. Because enacting the bill would increase direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures apply.

 

CBO estimates that enacting H.R. 5323 would not increase net direct spending by more than $2.5 billion or on-budget deficits by more than $5 billion in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods beginning in 2029.

 

H.R. 5323 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act.
