Fed plans bank-supervision overhaul to strengthen accountability, says Vice Chair Michelle Bowman

The Federal Reserve is set to realign its bank supervision system for increased accountability and efficient decision-making. Five new geographic supervisory regions will be established, each led by a regional leader. This new structure aims to address concerns raised in an independent review of Silicon Valley Banks collapse. The Fed will also reconsider asset thresholds for regulatory requirements to better align with inflation and economic growth.
