The bill establishes a compulsory funding floor by increasing the minimum annual transfer percentage to the Bureau from the Federal Reserve System's operating expenses.

  • 12 U.S.C. 5497(a)(2)

    10 percent of such expenses in fiscal year 2011; 11 percent of such expenses in fiscal year 2012; and 6.5 percent of such expenses in fiscal year 2013, and in each year thereafter. → not less than 12 percent of the total operating expenses of the Federal Reserve System, as reported in the Annual Report, 2009, of the Board of Governors.

    This change raises the minimum required fiscal transfer to the Bureau, enhancing its funding base.

  • 12 U.S.C. 5497(a)(2)(B)

    (A)(iii) → (A)

    This change modifies the reference for the annual adjustment of the transfer amount to be based on a broader percentage rather than a specific fiscal year limit.
