Financial Institution Regulatory Tailoring Enhancement Act

This bill changes the rules for banks and other financial institutions by raising the size thresholds that determine which rules they have to follow. It increases the asset levels that decide when banks fall under certain oversight by a consumer protection agency, when they must follow rules against certain risky trading activities, and when they can use simpler methods for approving home loans and measuring their financial strength. Overall, the bill would allow more financial institutions to qualify for fewer or simpler regulations by raising the cutoff points based on how much money they manage.
