On October 23, the FDIC and the Fed released the public sections of resolution plans, also known as “living wills,” for 15 banks. These plans, as required by the Dodd-Frank Act, must be submitted periodically by the largest bank holding companies and other financial firms and provide a plan for such financial institution’s rapid and orderly resolution in the event of financial distress or failure.

The FDIC’s database contains public sections of all Title I and insured depository institution resolution plans and informational filings submitted over the years, including those from firms no longer subject to submission requirements or previous rules.
