“We are pleased that the Federal Reserve and FDIC found our 2019 Resolution Plan to be free of deficiencies. We believe this result recognizes our successful implementation of an iterative process that further strengthened our resolution planning capabilities, and that our robust resolution planning framework is designed to proactively mitigate potential adverse impacts on the financial system.
