Enhancing Financial Stability Research and Oversight Act

This bill sets minimum annual funding levels for two financial oversight agencies: $124.6 million for the Office of Financial Research (OFR) and $15.3 million for the Financial Stability Oversight Council (FSOC). It requires these agencies to maintain minimum staffing levels (231 and 48 full-time equivalent positions, respectively) and adjusts both funding amounts yearly based on government wage increases. Crucially, the bill prohibits congressional review or reduction of these funding levels, protecting the agencies' independence. The bill directly affects how the OFR and FSOC operate by securing their core resources from legislative interference.
