Item 7.01

Regulation FD Disclosure.

Capital One Financial Corporation (the “Company”) has posted the summary of its annual stress test results required by the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 on its web page (http://www.capitalone.com). Choose “About Us,” then choose “Investors” to access the Investor Center and then choose “Stress Test Results” to view the current summary. The disclosure includes stress test results for the Company but does not take into account any capital actions the Company may have requested under the Federal Reserve’s 2014 Comprehensive Capital Analysis and Review process (“CCAR”).

The furnishing of the stress test results by the Company should not be taken as an indication of the Company’s performance as a part of CCAR, and no positive or negative inference regarding the Company’s CCAR results (including any potential capital actions) should be drawn from this information. Among other things, the Company’s CCAR results will be based on qualitative, as well as quantitative, factors. The Federal Reserve has indicated that it will publicly disclose CCAR results on March 26, 2014.

Note: Information in this report furnished pursuant to Item 7.01 shall not be deemed to be “filed” for the purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. The information on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not part of this report. This report will not be deemed an admission as to the materiality of any information in the report that is required to be disclosed solely by Regulation FD.

SIGNATURE

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the Company has duly caused this Current Report on Form 8-K to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
