REGULATORY IMPACT ANALYSIS STATEMENT
(This statement is not part of the By-law.)
Issues
The Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation (CDIC) annually reviews the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Differential Premiums By-law (the By-law) to confirm it is technically up to date. As a result, technical amendments are proposed in the By-law Amending the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Differential Premiums By-law (the proposed Amending By-law). The proposed Amending By-law targets the following two main issues.
1. Target Tier 1 capital ratio to be reported by CDIC member institutions
The amendments are primarily being made to clarify that where the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI) has set a different Tier 1 capital ratio (as compared to the one set out in OSFI's Capital Adequacy Requirements Guideline) via written notice to the member institution, the member institution shall, for the purposes of the Reporting Form to the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Differential Premiums By-law, report the ratio set out in OSFI's written notice.
2. Updates to the Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratio
The amendments add data points to the Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratio. In accordance with the Basel III framework, OSFI amended its Basel Capital Adequacy Reporting requirements by replacing the Assets to Capital Multiple (ACM) with a new leverage ratio. As a result of those changes, the CDIC can no longer rely on the ACM numerator to calculate the average asset growth under this measure. It is therefore necessary to amend the By-law to retain the integrity of the calculation of members' Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratios.
Background
The Board of Directors of the CDIC made the By-law on March 3, 1999, pursuant to subsection 21(2) and paragraph 11(2)(g) of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act (CDIC Act). Subsection 21(2) of the CDIC Act authorizes the CDIC Board of Directors to make by-laws establishing a system of classifying member institutions into different categories, setting out the criteria or factors the CDIC will consider in classifying members into categories, establishing the procedures the CDIC will follow in classifying members, and fixing the amount of, or providing a manner of determining the amount of, the annual premium applicable to each category. The CDIC Board of Directors amended the By-law on January 12 and December 6, 2000, July 26, 2001, March 7, 2002, March 3, 2004, February 9 and April 15, 2005, February 8 and December 6, 2006, December 3, 2008, December 2, 2009, December 8, 2010, December 7, 2011, December 5, 2012, December 4, 2013, April 22, 2015, and February 4, 2016.
Objectives
The main objectives of the proposed Amending By-law are to amend the current By-law to address the two above-noted issues:
- Target Tier 1 capital ratio — Clarify that for the purposes of the Reporting Form, member institutions are to report the ratio set out in OSFI's written notice.
- Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratio — Amend the formula to retain the integrity of the calculation of members' Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratios.
Description
The changes are reflected in the proposed Amending By-law. The following table provides more detail about the amendments, all of which are technical in nature.
Amending By-law Section | By-law Section | Explanation |
---|---|---|
By-law | ||
1 | 8.1(1) | To reflect the repeal of section 8.2 and the consequential amendments to section 8.1. |
8.1(2) | To reflect the repeal of section 8.2 and the consequential amendments to section 8.1. | |
8.1(3) | To reflect that non-compliance can be cured and, if so, that subsection (1) would apply if there was a later non-compliance by the institution. | |
2 | 8.2(1) | To repeal subsection 8.2(1) on the basis that it applies only to the 2013 premium year. |
8.2(2) | To repeal subsection 8.2(2) on the basis that it applies only to the 2014 premium year. | |
8.2(3) | To repeal subsection 8.2(3) on the basis that it applies only to the 2015 premium year. | |
3 | 12(1) | Consequential amendments to subsection 12(1) are necessary to reflect the deletion of section 8.2. |
Schedule 1, Premium Categories | ||
4 | Schedule 1 | To remove the percentage set out in column 3 for the premium years beginning in 2015 and 2016, as those premium years are complete. |
Schedule 2, Part 2, Reporting Form | ||
5 | Item 1 | To clarify that a member institution must indicate the target Tier 1 capital ratio set by the regulator for the member institution, whether set by capital adequacy guidance or by a written notice from the regulator to the institution. To refer to the “all in” target Tier 1 capital ratio for consistency with OSFI terminology. |
6 | Item 3 | To clarify that the formula applies to member institutions operating for five fiscal years or more. |
7 | Item 7 | As a result of adopting the Basel Leverage Ratio for the 2016 filing year, the CDIC can no longer rely on the Assets to Capital Multiple numerator (ACM data point) to calculate the average asset growth under this measure. The amendments provide for the Three-Year Moving Average Asset Growth Ratio to include additional data points from OSFI's Leverage Requirements Return and Basel III Capital Adequacy Reporting — Credit, Market and Operational Risk (BCAR) form that result in an equivalent to the ACM data point. |
8 | Item 8 | To add the word “outstanding” for consistency with OSFI terminology. |
9 | Certification | To add the business contact information for the individual who prepared the Reporting Form. |
Schedule 3, Scoring Grid — Quantitative Assessment, Part 1, Capital Adequacy | ||
10 | Schedule 3 | For consistency with OSFI terminology. |
“One-for-One” Rule
The “One-for-One” Rule does not apply to this proposal, as there is no change in administrative costs to business.
Small business lens
The small business lens does not apply to this proposal, as there are no costs to small business.
Consultation
As the proposed amendments are technical in nature, only consultation by way of prepublication on October 15, 2016, in the Canada Gazette, Part I, is necessary.
Rationale
The proposed Amending By-law will ensure the By-law remains technically up to date, and would achieve each of the stated objectives, directly addressed in the identified issues. The proposed Amending By-law would not impose any additional regulatory cost or administrative burden on industry.
Implementation, enforcement and service standards
The proposed Amending By-law would come into effect for the 2017 premium year. There are no compliance or enforcement issues.
