SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On February 4, 2022, the Board published in
the Federal Register a proposed supervisory framework for depository
institution holding companies that are significantly engaged in
insurance activities, or supervised insurance organizations.\1\ The
proposed framework would provide a supervisory approach that is
designed specifically to reflect the differences between banking and
insurance. Within the framework, the application of supervisory
guidance and the assignment of supervisory resources would be based
explicitly on a supervised insurance organization's complexity and
individual risk profile. The proposed framework would formalize the
ratings applicable to these firms with rating definitions that reflect
specific supervisory requirements and expectations. It would also
emphasize the Board's policy to rely to the fullest extent possible on
work done by other relevant supervisors, describing, in particular, the
way it will rely more fully on reports and other supervisory
information provided by state insurance regulators to minimize the
burden associated with supervisory duplication.

\1\ 87 FR 6537 (February 4, 2022).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The notice of proposed guidance stated that the comment period
would close on April 5, 2022. The Board subsequently received a request
to extend the comment period. An extension of the comment period will
provide additional opportunity for the public to consider the proposal
and prepare comments, including to address the questions posed by the
Board in the proposal. Therefore, the Board is extending the end of the
comment period for the proposal from April 5, 2022, to May 5, 2022.
By order of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, acting through the Secretary of the Board under delegated
authority, March 21, 2022.
Ann E. Misback,
Secretary of the Board.
