On March 11, 2015, the US Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System announced that it has not objected to the capital plans of 28 bank holding companies participating in the Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review. However, Bank of America Corporation is required to submit a new capital plan to address weaknesses in its capital planning processes. The Federal Reserve Board did object to the capital plans of Deutsche Bank Trust Corporation and Santander Holdings USA due to qualitative concerns. There were no objections based on quantitative grounds. Goldman Sachs Group, Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co., and Morgan Stanley needed to submit adjusted capital actions to meet the minimum post-stress minimum capital requirements.
