FINANCIAL STABILITY OVERSIGHT COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 4, 2014
WASHINGTON – Secretary Lew today convened a meeting of the Financial Stability Oversight
Council (Council) in a closed session at the Treasury Department.
During the meeting, the Council voted to make a proposed determination regarding a nonbank
financial company under section 113 of the Dodd-Frank Act. The Council’s vote was
unanimous with one member voting present. Following the meeting, the Council provided the
company with a detailed written explanation of the basis of the proposed determination, and the
company now has 30 days to request a hearing before the Council to contest the proposed
determination. After any hearing, the Council may make a final determination regarding the
company. As noted in the Council’s interpretive guidance, the Council does not intend to
publicly announce the name of any nonbank financial company that is under evaluation before a
final determination is made.
Following the Council’s direction to staff at its July 31 meeting, the Council also continued its
discussion regarding its ongoing assessment of the asset management industry and received an
update from staff on these efforts.
In addition, the Council received an update from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation on their recent review of the largest
banks’ resolution plans.
Finally, the Council received a presentation on and voted to approve its fiscal year 2015 budget,
and voted to approve the minutes of its previous meeting on July 31.
Additional information regarding the Council, its work, and the recently approved fiscal year
2015 budget and meeting minutes is available at www.fsoc.gov.
