Supervisory Baseline, Adverse, and Severely
Adverse Scenarios

The Federal Reserve Board’s rules implementing the
stress testing requirements of the Dodd-Frank Wall
Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act require
the Board to provide at least three different sets of
scenarios, including baseline, adverse, and severely
adverse scenarios, for both supervisory and
company-run stress tests. This publication provides a
description of the supervisory scenarios that should
be used (1) for the current stress test cycle under the
Board’s stress test rules, and (2) in connection with
capital plans due January 6, 2014, under the Board’s
capital plan rule (see instructions for the 2014 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review at www
.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/ccar.htm).
The adverse and severely adverse scenarios are not
forecasts, but rather are hypothetical scenarios
designed to assess the strength of banking organizations and their resilience to adverse economic environments. Further, the baseline scenario follows a contour
very similar to the average projections from surveys of
economic forecasters and does not represent the forecast of the Federal Reserve.
All scenarios start in the fourth quarter of 2013
(2013:Q4) and extend through the fourth quarter of
2016 (2016:Q4). Each of the three scenarios includes
28 variables. For domestic variables, each scenario
includes the following:
• Six measures of economic activity and prices:
annualized percent changes in real and nominal
Gross Domestic Product (GDP), the unemployment rate of the civilian non-institutional population aged 16 and over, annualized percent changes
in real and nominal disposable personal income,
and the annualized percent change in the Consumer Price Index (CPI)
• Four aggregate measures of asset prices or financial conditions: indexes of house prices, commercial property prices, equity prices, and U.S. stockmarket volatility

• Six measures of interest rates: the rate on the
3-month Treasury bill; the yield on the 5-year
Treasury bond; the yield on the 10-year Treasury
bond; the yield on a 10-year BBB corporate security; the prime rate; and the interest rate associated
with a conforming, conventional, fixed-rate,
30-year mortgage
For international variables, each scenario includes
three variables in four countries/country blocks:
• The three variables for each country/country block
are the annualized percent change in real GDP, the
annualized percent change in the CPI or local
equivalent, and the U.S. dollar/foreign currency
exchange rate.
• The four countries/country blocks included are the
euro area, the United Kingdom, developing Asia,
and Japan. The euro area is defined as the 17 European Union member states that have adopted the
euro as their common currency, and developing
Asia is defined as the nominal GDP-weighted
aggregate of China, India, South Korea, Hong
Kong SAR, and Taiwan.
The 28 variables provided this year by the Federal
Reserve include all of the variables provided last year
and two new domestic variables—the yield on the
5-year Treasury bond and the prime rate.1 (The Federal Reserve recognizes the amount of work required
for companies to incorporate the scenario variables
into their stress testing models and expects to eliminate variables from the scenarios only in rare
instances.) The motivation for adding the yield on the
5-year Treasury bond is that—together with the rate
on the 3-month Treasury bill and the yield on the
10-year Treasury bond—it provides a more thorough
1

Equity prices in this year’s macro scenarios are measured by the
Dow Jones Total Stock Market (Float Cap) Index. The Dow
Jones Total Stock Market (Full Cap) Index that was used in last
year’s scenarios was discontinued by Dow Jones in November 2012 in favor of the Float Cap Index.

Federal Reserve Supervisory Scenarios

characterization of the Treasury yield curve. The
motivation for adding the prime rate is that it is a
commonly used base rate for many types of loan
products. The Federal Reserve is also providing
updated historical time series accompanying the scenarios (see www.federalreserve.gov/bankinforeg/
stress-tests-capital-planning.htm).

Consistent with the moderate pace of economic
activity, equity prices increase about 5 percent per
year and equity-market volatility remains low. Nominal house prices increase nearly 3 percent per year, on
average, over the scenario. Commercial real estate
prices increase about 4 percent per year during the
scenario period.

The following sections describe the broad contours of
the baseline scenario, the adverse scenario, and the
severely adverse scenario. The specific values for all
variables included in the scenarios are shown in this
document and are also provided as an Excel spreadsheet on the Board’s website at www.federalreserve
.gov/bankinforeg/stress-tests-capital-planning.htm.
Further, the Federal Reserve is providing a summary
description of the global market shocks that will be
provided to some firms with significant trading activity. The Federal Reserve will provide an Excel spreadsheet of the global market shocks by November 15,
2013 on the Board’s website at www.federalreserve
.gov/bankinforeg/stress-tests-capital-planning
.htm.These firms will be required to apply the global
market shocks to their trading and counterparty
positions as of October 16, 2013. Finally, the Federal
Reserve is providing a summary description of the
counterparty default scenario component that will
apply to certain large and interconnected firms.
These firms will be required to apply the counterparty default scenario to their exposure and collateral
values as of October 16, 2013.

Short-term Treasury rates in the baseline scenario
remain at 10 basis points for most of 2014, and then
increase about 25 basis points per quarter to reach
nearly 2½ percent by year-end 2016. This path is consistent with the average projections from surveys of
economic forecasters. Long-term Treasury yields
move up steadily over the scenario period from their
third-quarter level of about 2¾ percent to more than
4¼ percent by the end of 2016. Consistent with the
strengthening economy, the BBB corporate spread
narrows slightly during the scenario period; as a
result, corporate yields increase by a bit less than
similar-maturity Treasury yields. The prime rate
moves up, following the contour of short-term Treasury rates, and mortgage rates move up, following the
contour of long-term Treasury yields.

Supervisory Baseline Scenario
The baseline scenario follows a contour very similar
to the average projections from surveys of economic
forecasters. For example, the outlook for U.S. real
activity and inflation in the baseline is in line with the
October 2013 consensus projections from Blue Chip
Economic Indicators. The baseline scenario does not
represent the forecast of the Federal Reserve.
The baseline scenario for the United States shows a
moderate expansion in economic activity. Real GDP
growth increases during 2014 and averages a little less
than 3 percent per year during the scenario period,
while the unemployment rate edges down in 2014 and
falls slowly thereafter, reaching a level slightly below
6 percent by the end of 2016. CPI inflation rises
slowly over the scenario period and averages a little
more than 2 percent per year.

For international variables, the baseline outlook is
similar to that reported in the October 2013 Blue
Chip Economic Indicators and the International
Monetary Fund’s World Economic Outlook, also
issued in October.
The baseline scenario for economic activity, inflation,
and exchange rates outside the United States is characterized by an expansion in activity, albeit with
divergent growth patterns across the four countries/
country blocks. There is a sustained recovery in the
euro area as growth increases to about 1½ percent in
2015 and 2016, while real GDP growth in Japan
slows to a little above 1¼ percent in 2016. For the
United Kingdom and developing Asia, economic
activity advances at a steady pace of approximately
2 percent and 6½ percent, respectively, each year.

Supervisory Adverse Scenario
The adverse scenario is characterized by a weakening
in economic activity across all of the economies
included in the scenario combined with a global aversion to long-term fixed-income assets that brings
about rapid rises in long-term rates and steepening
yield curves in the United States and the four

November 1, 2013

countries/country blocks. It is important to note that
this scenario is not a forecast, but rather is a hypothetical scenario designed to assess the strength of
banking organizations and their resilience to an
adverse economic environment.
The adverse scenario features a moderate recession in
the United States that begins in the fourth quarter of
2013 and lasts through the end of 2014; during this
period, the level of real GDP declines approximately
1 percent, and the unemployment rate rises to
9¼ percent. There is an initial slowing in CPI inflation before it picks up and returns to 2 percent by the
middle of 2015. Equity prices fall 36 percent by the
middle of 2014 and are just below their pre-recession
level by the end of the scenario. The equity market
volatility index doubles from its third-quarter 2013
level to 35 percent at the start of the scenario. House
prices and commercial real estate prices decline
approximately 10 percent and 20 percent, respectively, before stabilizing and starting to rise in early
2016.
Reflecting the weaker economy, short-term interest
rates remain near zero over the scenario period. The
assumed aversion to long-term debt instruments
results in a sharp increase in the yield on the longterm Treasury bond to 5¾ percent by the end of
2014. With short-term interest rates flat, this increase
results in a steepening of the yield curve of approximately 300 basis points by the end 2014. Corporate
borrowing rates and mortgage rates both rise sharply
through 2014, reflecting a moderate increase in credit
spreads on top of the sharp rise in Treasury yields.
A slow recovery begins in 2015, with GDP rising
2 percent that year and nearly 3¼ percent in 2016.
The strengthening expansion results in the unemployment rate declining from its peak of 9¼ percent in
the middle of 2015 to 8¾ percent at the end of 2016.
The international component of the adverse scenario
features recessions in the euro area, the United Kingdom, and Japan in the early part of the scenario
period and, over the same period, below-trend
growth in developing Asia. Compared to the euro
area and Japan, the recession in the United Kingdom
is less severe.
Weaker economic activity results in a brief period of
deflation with modest price declines in the euro area,
while there is a sustained period of deflation with
steeper price declines in Japan.

3

In this scenario, the aversion of investors to longterm fixed income assets is global, and consequently
there are equivalent increases in sovereign yields
across all countries. However, the euro, the pound,
and the currencies of developing Asia depreciate
against the dollar as a result of flight-to-safety capital flows associated with the global recession in the
scenario. The yen appreciates modestly against the
dollar, also reflecting flight-to-safety capital flows.
This adverse scenario is qualitatively different from
the 2013 adverse scenario released in November 2012. The main difference is the nature of the
shock impacting the yield curve. In particular, the
adverse scenario issued last year featured a sudden
rise in U.S. inflation that resulted in a higher and flatter yield curve. In this year’s adverse scenario, there is
a global aversion to long-term debt instruments that
results in a rapid rise in long-term rates and a steeper
yield curve.

Supervisory Severely Adverse
Scenario
The severely adverse scenario is characterized by a
substantial weakening in economic activity across all
of the economies included in the scenario. In addition, the scenario features a significant reversal of
recent improvements to the U.S. housing market and
the euro area outlook. It is important to note that
this scenario is not a forecast, but rather is a hypothetical scenario designed to assess the strength of
banking organizations and their resilience to a
severely adverse economic environment.
In the United States, the severely adverse scenario
features a severe recession in which the unemployment rate increases 4 percentage points from current
levels (an amount similar to that seen in severe contractions over the past half-century) and peaks at
11¼ percent in the middle of 2015. Notably, the
unemployment rate from late 2014 to mid-2016
remains above any level experienced during the past
70 years. Real GDP declines nearly 4¾ percent
between the third quarter of 2013 and the end of
2014, and the four-quarter percent change in the CPI
declines to less than 1 percent by the end of 2014
before moving back up to 1½ percent from the end of
2015 through 2016. Equity prices fall nearly 50 percent over the course of the recession and the equity
market volatility index reaches a peak of 68 percent.
House prices decline 25 percent during the scenario

4

Federal Reserve Supervisory Scenarios

period, while commercial real estate prices decline
nearly 35 percent at their trough.
Short-term interest rates remain near zero through
2016. The yield on the long-term Treasury bond
declines to 1 percent in 2014 before edging up
approximately 1 percentage point by the end of 2016.
Spreads on corporate bonds ramp up from about
200 basis points to roughly 500 basis points over the
course of 2014. As a result, despite lower long-term
Treasury yields, corporate borrowing rates rise and
reach a peak just below 6¼ percent in mid-2014.
Mortgage rates remain largely unchanged, with the
decline in long-term Treasury yields offset by some
widening in spreads. A slow recovery takes hold in
2015, and real GDP expands 2 percent that year and
nearly 4 percent in 2016.
The international component of the severely adverse
scenario features recessions in the euro area, the
United Kingdom, and Japan, and below-trend
growth in developing Asia. The euro area slips into
recession in the fourth quarter of 2013 and remains
in this state until the end of 2014. During this period,
the level of euro area real GDP contracts 5 ¾ percent
and the level of real GDP in the United Kingdom
contracts 3 percent. In addition, there is a notable
weakening of conditions in developing Asia and a
recession in Japan, which begins in the fourth quarter
of 2013 and lasts until 2015:Q3. When combined
with spillovers from developing Asia, the recession in
Japan implies a contraction in Japanese real GDP
that is modestly larger than in the recent financial
crisis.
The recoveries in the euro area, the United Kingdom,
and Japan that follow their respective recessions are
sluggish in this scenario: In the euro area, real GDP
growth averages a little less than 2 percent per year
from 2015:Q1 to 2016:Q4; in the United Kingdom,
real GDP increases at a similarly modest pace of
about 2 percent; in Japan, real GDP growth expands
to a little more than 1¾ percent in 2016. In developing Asia, real GDP growth increases above trend by
the end of 2014 and remains above trend in 2015 and
2016. In the severely adverse scenario, the U.S. dollar
appreciates relative to the euro, the pound, and the
currencies of developing Asia, and depreciates relative to the yen.
This severely adverse scenario is similar to the 2013
severely adverse scenario released in November 2012.
On the domestic side of the scenario, the most
notable difference between this year’s and last year’s

severely adverse scenario is a larger decline in U.S.
house prices. This difference arises because the scenario this year assumes an additional reversal of
some of the house price gains realized over the past
year. On the international side of the scenario, the
main qualitative difference between this year’s and
last year’s severely adverse scenario is a moresubstantial slowdown in developing Asia and, as a
consequence, Japan. The severely adverse scenario
issued last year featured a sharp slowdown in economic activity in China that had substantial spillovers to activity in the rest of developing Asia. In this
year’s severely adverse scenario, China continues to
experience a sharp slowdown in economic activity,
but other large economies in developing Asia now
also experience similar sharp slowdowns that, moreover, originate in their own economies. Thus, the scenario assumes a more severe overall slowdown in
developing Asia that significantly impacts Japan.
These additional features of this year’s severely
adverse scenario are designed to assess the effect on
large U.S. banks of a sharp turnaround in current
developments in U.S. housing markets and a sizeable
weakening of economic activity in emerging market
economies.

Additional Key Features of the
Supervisory Scenarios
The sharp slowdown in developing Asia featured in
this year’s severely adverse scenario is intended to
represent a severe weakening in conditions across all
emerging market economies and not simply a sharp
slowdown specific to the developing Asia region.
Likewise, the larger decline in U.S. house prices in
this year’s severely adverse scenario—which assumes
some additional reversal of recent increases in house
prices—is viewed as a development that is particularly relevant for states or metropolitan statistical
areas that have experienced brisk gains in house
prices over the past year.
Additionally, the widening of U.S. corporate borrowing spreads featured in the two supervisory stress scenarios is intended to represent a corresponding widening in spreads across all corporate borrowing rating tiers and instruments, particularly those
instruments—such as high-yield corporate bonds and
leveraged loans—that are at present experiencing
particularly narrow spreads.
The intended features of the adverse and severely
adverse scenarios described above should be reflected

November 1, 2013

in the paths of additional variables that companies
may need to project for their company-run stress
tests.

Global Market Shock Components
for Supervisory Adverse and Severely
Adverse Scenarios
By November 15, 2013, the Federal Reserve will provide certain firms with global market shock components for the supervisory adverse and severely
adverse scenarios to be used (1) for the current stress
test cycle under the Board’s stress test rules, and
(2) in connection with capital plans due on January 6,
2014, under the Board’s capital plan rule.2 Under the
DFA stress testing rules, large, complex institutions
with significant trading activity must apply these
components to their trading and counterparty exposures as of a specific date (October 16, 2013 for the
current stress testing cycle) to project mark-tomarket losses.3 In addition, as noted below, certain
large and highly interconnected companies must
apply the same global market shocks to their counterparty exposures as of the same date to project
losses under the counterparty default scenario
components.
The global market shock components are one-time,
hypothetical shocks to a large set of risk factors.
Generally, these shocks involve large and sudden
changes in asset prices, rates, and spreads, reflecting
general market dislocation and heightened uncertainty. It is important to note that global market
shocks included in adverse and severely adverse scenarios are not forecasts, but rather are hypothetical
scenarios designed to assess the strength and resilience of banking organizations in adverse market
environments.
The global market shock component for the severely
adverse scenario is built around four key themes.
First, globally, government and sovereign yield curves
undergo marked shifts in level and shape. In most
advanced economies, long-term rates rise sharply
2

3

The global market shock component includes shocks to a large
number of risk factors that include a wide range of financial
market variables that affect asset prices, such as a credit spread
or the yield on a bond, and, in some cases, the value of the position itself (e.g., the market value of private-equity positions).
Currently, six bank holding companies (BHC) are subject to
global market shocks: Bank of America Corporation; Citigroup
Inc.; The Goldman Sachs Group, Inc.; JPMorgan Chase & Co.;
Morgan Stanley; and Wells Fargo & Company.

while short-term rates remain essentially unchanged.
In emerging economies and some advanced economies, such as peripheral euro area economies, both
short-term and long-term rates rise. The magnitudes
of increases in rates differ by country. Second, emerging market sovereigns and corporates experience
credit shocks that are more severe than those experienced during the second half of 2008. Third, the euro
area experiences a credit-themed crisis, manifested by
sharp increases in government yields, the widening of
corporate credit spreads, and increases in sovereign
credit default swap spreads. While these effects are
most pronounced in the so-called peripheral countries, the reverberations are felt across the entire euro
area, most notably in the form of a large depreciation
in the euro against other major currencies. Finally,
market moves in all other asset classes and risk factors—in particular, in credit and equity markets—
closely mirror the experiences of the second half of
2008.
The core of the global market shock component for
the adverse scenario consists of market shocks that
are, by and large, similar in structure, but not as
severe as those assumed in the severely adverse scenario. Emerging market economies experience asset
price declines and market dislocations that are similar in magnitude to those of the second half of 2008.
The global market shock is a separate and additional
component of the scenario applied only to the largest
banks with complex trading portfolios.4 Changes to
risk factors comprising the global trading shock are
assumed to occur instantaneously, while the macro
scenarios describe the evolution of variables over
time. Taken together, the extreme movements in risk
factors in the market shock and the severe economic
downturn in the macro scenario describe a major
financial dislocation, featuring large declines in asset
prices and large increases in asset price volatility and
credit spreads, followed by a severe economic contraction, circumstances reminiscent of the experience
during the recent financial crisis. While interest rates
generally increase in the global market shock, and
most rates fall in the initial quarters in the severely
adverse macroeconomic scenario, these combinations
are not inconsistent with the experience during the
recent financial crisis, when interest rates increased
sharply on certain days even as they ultimately fell on
net. Indeed, some of the largest increases observed in
4

The global market shock is a component of the macro scenario
but does not need to be directionally consistent with the macro
scenario.

Federal Reserve Supervisory Scenarios

Treasury rates occurred in the depths of the financial
crisis, amid an environment of reduced liquidity and
heightened investor uncertainty.

Counterparty Default Component
for Supervisory Adverse and
Severely Adverse Scenarios
For CCAR 2014, certain large and highly interconnected firms5 must apply a counterparty default scenario component of the adverse and severely adverse
scenarios to their securities lending, and repurchase/
reverse repurchase agreement (collectively, Securities
Financing Transactions or SFTs) and derivative
exposures (1) for the current stress test cycle under
the Board’s stress test rules, and (2) in connection

Eight BHCs are subject to the counterparty default scenario
component: Bank of America Corporation; The Bank of New
York Mellon Corp.; Citigroup Inc.; The Goldman Sachs Group,
Inc.; JPMorgan Chase & Co.; Morgan Stanley; State Street
Corp.; and Wells Fargo & Company.

with capital plans due on January 6, 2014, under the
Board’s capital plan rule. The counterparty default
scenario component is an add-on to the macroeconomic conditions and financial market environment
specified in the Federal Reserve’s adverse and
severely adverse stress scenarios and replaces the
counterparty incremental default risk calculation
from last year’s stress test.
The counterparty default scenario component
involves the instantaneous and unexpected default of
the bank holding company’s counterparty with the
largest net stressed losses. Net stressed losses for each
counterparty are calculated after applying the instantaneous market shock to any non-cash SFT assets
(securities/collateral) posted or received, and, for
derivatives, to the value of the trade position and
non-cash collateral exchanged. For more information
on the counterparty default scenario component,
refer to the 2014 CCAR instructions that are being
issued concurrently with the scenarios.
