## Summary

**Congressional oversight and transparency** over banking rules that follow international policy would increase by forcing extra notice and analysis when U.S. regulators align with foreign standard‑setters. The bill targets rules tied to international bodies and adds a climate‑related reporting test for regulator interactions with those groups. - Federal banking regulators would face a new pre‑rulemaking test for “major covered rules.” Agencies must wait to propose or finalize a rule that aligns with a non‑governmental international organization and would have an aggregate U.S. economic impact of $10 billion or more over 10 years unless they give Congress 120 days notice, testimony, and a detailed economic analysis. - Those required analyses must project economic costs, sectoral effects, and effects on the availability of credit, GDP, and employment, which raises the evidentiary bar before major international‑aligned rules move forward. - Climate engagements with certain international groups would require annual public reporting to House and Senate banking committees about the regulator’s participation and a detailed accounting of the international group’s funding sources. - The rule applies across five regulators: the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, the National Credit Union Administration, and the Federal Housing Finance Agency, and it names example international bodies such as the Financial Stability Board, the Bank for International Settlements, the Network of Central Banks and Supervisors for Greening the Financial System, and the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.

- Bank regulators need reports before climate talks: mixed, medium. Bank regulators would not be allowed to meet with certain global groups about climate financial risk unless they first publish a report. The report, covering the prior year, would describe the regulator’s activities with those groups and list their government and non‑government funding sources. The…
