Note 11 — Regulatory Matters

Risk-Based Capital

In July 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation approved the Basel III regulatory capital framework and related Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act changes. The rules revise minimum capital requirements and adjust prompt corrective action thresholds. The rules also revise the regulatory capital elements, add a new common equity Tier I capital ratio, and increase the minimum Tier I capital ratio requirement. The revisions permit banking organizations to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income. Additionally, a new rule on the capital conservation buffer will be implemented beginning January 1, 2016. Under the final rules, institutions are subject to limitations on paying dividends, engaging in share repurchases, and paying discretionary bonuses if certain capital levels fall below newly required amounts. The rules became effective January 1, 2015 for smaller, non-complex banking organizations with full implementation of certain deductions and adjustments to regulatory capital through January 1, 2019.
