The LCR is a quantitative liquidity requirement intended to promote the short-term resilience of a banking organization's liquidity risk profile over a prospective 30-day period of stress.
The LCR rule requires Covered Companies to maintain on a daily basis an amount of HQLA that are unencumbered and controlled by the
The LCR rule classifies HQLA into three categories of assets: Level 1 liquid assets, Level 2A liquid assets, and Level 2B liquid assets. Level 1 liquid assets are the highest quality and most liquid assets and include, but not limited to,
The total net cash outflow amount is determined under the LCR rule by applying mandated outflow and inflow rates, which reflect certain prescribed, industry-wide stressed assumptions, against the balances of a company's funding sources, obligations, transactions, and assets over a prospective 30 calendar-day period. Inflows that can be included to offset outflows are limited to 75% of outflows to ensure that companies are maintaining sufficient on-balance sheet liquidity and are not overly reliant on inflows, which may not materialize in a period of stress. The total net cash outflow calculation also includes an add-on calculation that accounts for the largest daily difference between certain outflows and inflows with set maturity dates.

Forward-Looking Information
The LCR rule sets forth minimum liquidity standards designed to ensure that Covered Companies maintain adequate liquidity under a 30-calendar day period of stress. Accordingly, the LCR rule prescribes assumptions with respect to the liquidity of certain asset classes and cash flows associated with contractual and contingent obligations. This document may contain forward-looking information based on these assumptions. These assumptions are not intended to be a forecast by the Company of expected future liquidity or cash flows, but rather reflect possible outcomes based on the requirements of the LCR rule. While this forward-looking information represents the Company's judgements and expectations concerning the matters described above, a number of risks, uncertainties and other important factors can cause actual developments and results to differ materially.
