The proposed change would alter the so-called enhanced supplementary leverage ratio (eSLR), a rule that calls for the largest US banks to hold additional minimum capital based solely on their size.

Banks have complained this ratio penalizes them for holding lower-risk assets such as Treasury bonds.

The change would make it easier for banks to lend more freely and help create an even bigger pool of buyers for US Treasurys.
