Last updated Sep 22, 2026|Official source

Summary

Regulated entities must file a plan that shows how they will restore their core capital to at least the minimum capital level and their total capital to at least the risk-based capital level. The plan must say the capital level it will reach and keep, list the steps it will take to become adequately capitalized, give a schedule for those steps, describe the types and levels of activities it will run during the plan, and explain how it will follow any required or optional rules under this subchapter. The Director will set a deadline by rule for filing the plan that cannot be more than 45 days after the entity gets written notice that a plan is required. The Director can extend that deadline in writing for a set time. After a plan is filed, the Director must approve or reject it within 30 days, but may add one extra 30-day extension. The Director must give written reasons for any rejection or extension. If rejected, the entity must submit a revised plan acceptable to the Director within 30 days, or longer if the Director allows for the public interest.
