The Shared National Credit Program (SNC) was established in 1977 by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (FRS), the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC), and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) - collectively known as “regulatory agencies”- to provide an efficient and consistent review and classification of any large, syndicated loan. A SNC is defined as any credit or credits to the same obligor, in the same credit agreement, where the aggregate commitment amount is greater than or equal to $100 million and is shared by three or more federally supervised, unaffiliated institutions. Supervised institutions are any financial institution subject to regulation by one of the three regulatory agencies. A non-bank subsidiary of a holding company is considered a supervised institution. The regulatory agencies' review is conducted bi-annually, in the first and third quarters each year. Reporting entities must submit SNC data via the OASIS-SNCnet (SNCnet) reporting application.
New SNCnet Technology
As External Linkannounced in November 2023, the regulatory agencies have undertaken an initiative to modernize the technology applications used to facilitate the SNC Program. The new technology, SNCnet, replaces eSNC for quarterly data submissions, starting with the September 30, 2024 data submission, and will be leveraged for SNC reporting and examinations, starting with the 2025 SNC exams.
