The requirement for these institutions to have total U.S. Treasury, agency debt and agency mortgage-backed securities holdings equal to or greater than $5 billion or total assets equal to or greater than $30 billion is being reduced to $2 billion and $10 billion, respectively.

All other eligibility criteria and expectations remain the same.

This seems like it implies that their assets are drying up. Why else would you lower the requirement? Oh boy…buckle up!
