OCC has since secured commitments from multiple pension funds in an aggregate amount of $1 billion. Since setting and securing commitments up to that aggregate commitment limit, OCC has experienced an increase in its stressed liquidity demands. Under OCC's Liquidity Risk Management Framework (“LRMF”), OCC performs daily liquidity stress testing to assess its Base Liquidity Resources and Available Liquidity Resources against OCC's liquidity risk tolerance (“Adequacy Scenarios”). Based in part on the results of this stress testing, OCC has periodically adjusted Clearing Member's Clearing Fund Cash Requirement to ensure that OCC maintains sufficient liquidity resources to cover its liquidity risk exposures at all times. Through this Advance Notice OCC proposes a change to its Non-Bank Liquidity Facility program to give OCC greater capacity to source liquidity from its non-bank liquidity providers as needed.
