TIER Act of 2025

H. R. 6553 To index statutory thresholds, and for other purposes.

Introduced Dec 10, 2025

Latest action (Feb 25, 2026) Placed on the Union Calendar, Calendar No. 457.

Summary

This bill increases various financial regulatory thresholds that determine when banks and financial companies are subject to stricter oversight requirements. It raises several thresholds established in law, such as increasing the $250 billion asset threshold to $370 billion and the $100 billion threshold to $150 billion. The bill also establishes automatic adjustments to these thresholds beginning in 2031 and every 5 years thereafter, indexed to growth in the United States gross domestic product. Regulatory agencies are required to review and adjust their regulations to align with these changes and report to Congress on any modifications.
