                                   H.R.   3179
        Transparency and Accountability for Business Standards Act

           As ordered reported by the House Committee on Financial Services
                                on December 13, 2017


 SUMMARY

 H.R. 3179 would require three federal banking regulators-the Federal Deposit Insurance
 Corporation (FDIC), the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), and the
 Federal Reserve-to conduct and publish cost-benefit analyses of any new regulations
 they implement related to capital requirements, leverage requirements, or liquidity
 requirements that are substantively more stringent than corresponding international
 standards. The bill also would require those regulators to complete cost-benefit analyses
 for any similar regulations they have implemented since January 2007.

 CBO  estimates that enacting the legislation would increase the deficit by $8 million over
 the 2018-2027 period. That amount comprises an increase in direct spending of
 $4 million and a reduction in revenues of $4 million. Because enacting the bill would
 affect direct spending and revenues, pay-as-you-go procedures apply.

 CBO  estimates that enacting H.R. 3179 would not increase net direct spending or on-
 budget deficits by more than $2.5 billion in any of the four consecutive 10-year periods
 beginning in 2028.

 H.R. 3179 contains no intergovernmental mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates
 Reform Act (UMRA).  Additional fees imposed by the FDIC and the OCC would increase
 the cost of an existing mandate on private entities required to pay those assessments.
 However, CBO  estimates that the incremental cost of the mandate would fall well below
 the annual threshold established in UMRA for private-sector mandates ($156 million in
 2017, adjusted for inflation).
