The proposal would also amend the Systemic Risk Report (FR Y-15), which is the source of inputs to the implementation of the GSIB framework under the capital rule. The proposal would make several changes to better align surcharges with risk. First, it would modify certain coefficients used to calculate GSIB surcharges under method 2 of the GSIB surcharge framework to reflect changes in the financial system and the economy and provide for annual adjustments for real economic growth and inflation going forward. Second, the proposal would modify the measurement and weighting of the weighted short-term wholesale funding systemic indicator. Third, for certain systemic indicators currently measured as of a single date each year, the proposal would require measurement based on average values to reduce the effects of temporary changes to indicator values around measurement dates. Fourth, the proposal would reduce cliff effects and enhance the sensitivity of the surcharge to changes in a GSIB's systemic risk profile. Fifth, to improve risk capture, the proposal would also make improvements to the measurement of some systemic indicators used in the GSIB surcharge framework and the framework for determining prudential standards for large banking organizations. In addition to these changes, the proposal would make several amendments to the FR Y-15 to improve the consistency of data reporting and streamline the reporting process.","document_number":"2026-05961","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/03/27/2026-05961/regulatory-capital-rule-regulation-q-risk-based-capital-surcharges-for-global-systemically-important","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-03-27/pdf/2026-05961.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-05961.pdf?1774529110","publication_date":"2026-03-27","agencies":[{"raw_name":"FEDERAL RESERVE SYSTEM","name":"Federal Reserve System","id":188,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/federal-reserve-system","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/188","parent_id":null,"slug":"federal-reserve-system"}],"excerpts":"first to the third quarters of all <span class=\"match\">sample</span> years and the average of the indicator amounts pooled across the fourth quarters of all <span class=\"match\">sample</span> years for each GSIB.\n 137 \n \n However, if this former difference is negative, then the analysis estimates the proposed data averaging's effect by calculating the percent difference between the average of the indicator amounts pooled across the first to the fourth quarters of all <span class=\"match\">sample</span> years and the average of the indicator amounts pooled across the fourth quarters of all <span class=\"match\">sample</span> years.\n \n \n \n 136 \n  The analysis"},{"title":"Medicare Program; Contract Year 2027 and Certain Contract Year 2026 Policy and Technical Changes to the Medicare Advantage Program, Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit Program, and Medicare Cost Plan Program","type":"Rule","abstract":"This final rule revises the Medicare Advantage (Part C), Medicare Prescription Drug Benefit (Part D), and Medicare cost plan regulations to implement changes related to Star Ratings, marketing and communications, drug coverage, enrollment processes, special needs plans, and other programmatic areas.","document_number":"2026-06600","html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2026/04/06/2026-06600/medicare-program-contract-year-2027-and-certain-contract-year-2026-policy-and-technical-changes-to","pdf_url":"https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2026-04-06/pdf/2026-06600.pdf","public_inspection_pdf_url":"https://public-inspection.federalregister.gov/2026-06600.pdf?1775160908","publication_date":"2026-04-06","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES","name":"Health and Human Services Department","id":221,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/health-and-human-services-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/221","parent_id":null,"slug":"health-and-human-services-department"},{"raw_name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","name":"Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services","id":45,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/45","parent_id":221,"slug":"centers-for-medicare-medicaid-services"}],"excerpts":"Manufacturer Discount Program and monitoring <span class=\"match\">compliance</span> with such program, including providing the manufacturer's Employer Identification Number (EIN) and other identifying information to CMS upon request. \n • Comply with the requirements <span class=\"match\">related</span> to the provision and maintenance of data, including collecting, maintaining, and reporting appropriate data <span class=\"match\">related</span> to the labeler codes covered by its agreement and any other data CMS determines necessary to carry out the Manufacturer Discount Program and demonstrate <span class=\"match\">compliance</span> with its requirements. \n • Enter into"},{"title":"Royalty for Oil and Gas Lost From Onshore Federal and Indian Leases","type":"Proposed Rule","abstract":"In response to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, enacted on July 4, 2025, and Executive Order (E.O.) 14154, entitled, \"Unleashing American Energy,\" dated January 20, 2025, the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is proposing to modify its existing regulations pertaining to royalties due on oil and natural gas lost on Federal and Indian leases.
