  • The US government is distancing itself from Banks.
    There is no political will to bailout Banks again in Congress.
    This article by Reuters is the regulators attempt to inform the Public that they are acting to prevent a recurrence of the "too big to fail policy" that culminated in the 2008 actions.
    
    QE will be enacted only if the general economy fails.
    
    The article goes into detail about the increase of core capital ratios to demonstrate that there are real assets in reserve to shore up Banks from internal resources. This way the Banks would keep risk limited to shareholders assets and not need public sector finances in an emergence.
    That shareholders are the ones who will bear the brunt of losses as a Bank faces liquidation if it fails. That is the "Living Will" part disclosed.
