Supervisory Severely Adverse Scenario

Thursday, June 23, 2022

Overview

As part of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank Act), the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (Board) is required to conduct a supervisory stress test of bank holding companies (BHCs) with $100 billion or greater in total consolidated assets. Credit Suisse has designated Credit Suisse Holdings (USA), Inc. (CSH USA) as its U.S. Intermediate Holding Company (IHC), and the IHC is subject to U.S. capital and liquidity requirements, capital planning and stress testing, risk management and other enhanced prudential standards on a consolidated basis.

On April 5, 2022, CSH USA delivered its Dodd-Frank Act Stress Test submission using a set of macroeconomic scenarios (supervisory baseline and supervisory severely adverse) developed by the Board.

  • The planning horizon for the scenarios was a nine quarter forecast, utilizing a jump off point of December 31, 2021. The results on pages 4-7 incorporate the following capital action assumptions:
  • No dividends on any instruments that qualify as common equity tier 1 capital;
  • Payments on instruments that qualify as additional tier 1 capital or tier 2 capital equal to the stated dividend, interest, or principal due on such instrument;
  • No redemption or repurchase of any capital instrument that is eligible for inclusion in the numerator of a regulatory capital ratio; and
  • No issuances of common stock or preferred stock.
