The OFR Bank Systemic Risk Monitor (BSRM) is a collection of key measures for monitoring systemic risks posed by the largest banks. These include systemic importance scores for international and U.S. banks, the OFR’s Contagion Index, and other common measures of systemic risk.
The monitor enhances and expands upon the OFR G-SIB Scores Interactive Chart.
Total Assets , Total Equity , and Leverage are common measures used to gauge systemic risk.
For foreign banks, the data presented are limited to the activities of the U.S. operations.
Data used in the calculation are obtained from the most recently reported values reported in the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System’s report, Consolidated Financial Statements for Holding Companies - FR Y-9C. The quarterly values from those reports correspond to the selected year and quarter.
