These regulatory agencies have been ranking management on a scale from 1 to 5 as recently evidenced by JPM management getting lowered a few notches (to 3 as a result of the whale) by regulators. So if they are ranking management, that means that they are most likely using these ranking in determining when a bank is seized, irrespective of the capital ratings or CRP plans. My guess is if they rank management at a 5 then look-out bank, there is a seizure on the horizon (law be damned).
