OCC issues version 3.0 of Concentrations of Credit examiner handbook

The OCC has replaced version 2.0 of its Concentrations of Credit booklet with a reorganised version 3.0, used by examiners across all OCC-supervised banks.

  • Version 3.0 replaces version 2.0 and rescinds OCC Bulletin 2020-90, which had transmitted the earlier version.
  • The concentration definition is unchanged: obligations exceeding 25 percent of tier 1 capital plus allowance for credit losses.
  • New content covers securitizations, the correlation-concentration relationship, and determining aggregate risk.
