The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the FDIC, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, the National Credit Union Administration, and the SEC requested comment on a joint proposal that would limit incentive-based compensation arrangements at covered institutions, as required by Section 956 of the Dodd-Frank Act. The request for comment was published in the Federal Register.
