WASHINGTON - A U.S. bank regulator is considering a stricter framework for how large asset managers like Blackrock and Vanguard can prove they are not influencing banks where they hold large stakes.
Specifically, under the proposal the FDIC would remove an existing exemption in which the agency does not review new large investments in banks, so long as the Federal Reserve signed off on that approach. Separately, FDIC Commissioner Jonathan McKernan offered a proposal that would have directed FDIC staff to order a review of existing passivity agreements for some large asset managers, and ensure the FDIC has the capacity for monitoring the commitments those firms make. Under his plan, the FDIC would look to strike new agreements with those firms that would do away with the current practice of self-certification by the firms and require FDIC monitoring.
A spokesperson for Blackrock declined to comment. Vanguard said in a statement it wants a "constructive dialogue" with regulators over passive investments.But the industry has been quick to critique this scrutiny, calling it unjustified and burdensome. McLean & Company, the trusted partner of HR and leadership professionals around the world, has announced further agenda details for McLean Signature, the premier HR industry conference for future-focused HR teams and leaders.
