据路透社援引四位未具名知情人士的消息称，美联储正在探讨提高资产门槛，以触发对大型美国贷款机构更严格的监管。
By Tom Metcalf The Federal Reserve is exploring raising asset thresholds that trigger stricter regulatory oversight of larger US lenders, Reuters reported, citing four people it didn’t identify.
路透社报道称，该中央银行正在考虑提高促对银行资产负债表、流动性和资本进行压力测试的门槛。其中三位知情人士表示，相关提案可能会在今年晚些时候出台。
The central bank is looking at boosting the thresholds that prompt stress tests of the balance sheets, liquidity and capital of banks, the newswire said. The proposals could come later this year, according to three of the people.
目前的门槛设定于2019年，当银行资产达到1000亿美元时触发，并在2500亿美元和7000亿美元时有额外的合规要求。知情人士告诉路透社，较低的门槛可能会上升至1500亿美元，而较高的门槛则会接近1万亿美元。
The current thresholds — set in 2019 — are triggered when banks pass $100 billion of assets, with additional compliance requirements at $250 billion and $700 billion. The lower band could rise to $150 billion, with the higher one moving closer to $1 trillion, the people told Reuters.
路透社称，虽然这不会影响摩根大通或花旗集团等美国最大的银行，但这将使美国合众银行和第一资本金融公司等贷款机构在面临最繁重的监管之前拥有更大的增长空间。美联储未立即对此事发表评论。
While that wouldn’t impact the largest US banks like JPMorgan Chase & Co. or Citigroup Inc., it would give lenders like U.S. Bancorp and Capital One Financial Corp. more room to grow before hitting the most onerous regulations, Reuters said. The Fed didn’t immediately comment.
