  • Basel Ii/Iii Implementation Roadmap for the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union
    BASEL II/III IMPLEMENTATION ROADMAP FOR THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN CURRENCY UNION Bank Supervision Department EASTERN CARIBBEAN CENTRAL BANK ST KITTS BASEL II/III IMPLEMENTATION ROADMAP FOR THE EASTERN CARIBBEAN CURRENCY UNION 1.0 PURPOSE This Roadmap provides an overview of the Eastern Caribbean Central Bank’s (ECCB/the Central Bank) Basel II/III implementation programme for the Eastern Caribbean Currency Union (ECCU). The document outlines the Central Bank’s approach towards implementation, the implementation options selected and key deliverables/activities. The Roadmap is intended to guide the expectations and actions of all stakeholders associated with the Basel II/III implementation process. 2.0 INTRODUCTION The ECCB is committed to implementing certain aspects of Basel II/III in the ECCU for computing the capital adequacy of institutions licenced under the Banking Act 2015 (the Act), in accordance with Sections 46 and 47 of the Act1. Towards this end, the ECCB established a dedicated team (Basel Implementation Group) for spearheading the implementation effort and a Basel II/III Working Committee comprising of representatives from the ECCB, ECCU Bankers Association and commercial banks, for collaborating with the banking industry on an ongoing basis. The Central Bank sought comments on some draft standards2 in 2018 and plans to continue to deepen its interaction with licensees via a number of consultations and training sessions. Basel II/III constitutes a more comprehensive measure of capital adequacy than the existing Basel I. Basel II/III seeks to align regulatory capital requirements more closely with the underlying risks that banks face. The framework requires banks to assess the riskiness of their assets with respect to credit, market and operational risks and seeks to ensure that banks’ minimum capital requirements better reflect inherent risks in their portfolios, risk management practices and accompanying disclosures to the public.

  • On the Rising Complexity of Bank Regulatory Capital Requirements: from Global Guidelines to Their United States (US) Implementation
    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Review On the Rising Complexity of Bank Regulatory Capital Requirements: From Global Guidelines to their United States (US) Implementation James R. Barth 1 and Stephen Matteo Miller 2,* 1 Lowder Eminent Scholar in Finance, Auburn University, Auburn, AL 36849, USA; [email protected] 2 Senior Research Fellow, Mercatus Center at George Mason University, Fairfax, VA 22030, USA * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 2 October 2018; Accepted: 30 October 2018; Published: 1 November 2018 Abstract: After the Latin American Debt Crisis of 1982, the official response worldwide turned to minimum capital standards to promote stable banking systems. Despite their existence, however, such standards have still not prevented periodic disruptions in the banking sectors of various countries. After the 2007–2009 crisis, bank capital requirements have, in some cases, increased and overall have become even more complex. This paper reviews (1) how Basel-style capital adequacy guidelines have evolved, becoming higher in some cases and overall more complex, (2) how the United States (US) implementation of these guidelines has contributed to regulatory complexity, even when omitting other bank capital regulations that are specific to the US, and (3) how the US regulatory measures still do not provide equally valuable information about whether a bank is adequately capitalized. Keywords: bank regulation; capital adequacy standards; regulatory complexity; US banking crises JEL Classification: G01; G28; K20; L51; N22; N42 1.

  • Education Note Lead Analyst Understanding Bank Capital UBS Financial Services, Inc
    UBS Wealth Management Research / 26 March 2008 a b Education Note Lead analyst Understanding Bank Capital UBS Financial Services, Inc. Dean Ungar, CFA At a glance Asset Class: Equity This education note explains different capital measures used by regulators and analysts to assess the capital adequacy of US banking organizations. Capital adequacy moves onto the radar screen Large write-downs of securities backed by subprime mortgages along with increasing loan losses resulted in losses or minimal earnings per share at a number of US banks in 2007. Overall, earnings for the sector were down approximately 25% during the year. And stormy days are far from over. The outlook for 2008 includes further increases in loan losses and addi- tional credit costs as banks need to augment loan loss reserve levels. The pressure on bank earnings has had an adverse effect on bank capital levels. The average Tier 1 capital ratio (Tier 1 capital/risk-weighted assets) Chart 1 for US banks with market capitalization (cap) of USD 1 billion or more de- Tangible equity ratio – 10 largest banks clined from 11.2% as of 31 December, 2006 to 10.8% as of 31 Decem- ber, 2007. For the top 10 largest banks, the Tier 1 ratio declined from Tangible equity ratio - 10 largest banks 9.1% to 8.0% over the same period. Despite the decline, these ratios are 7.50 well above the 6.0% level that regulators consider well-capitalized. In fact, as of year-end 2007, there was no bank with market cap of USD 1 billion 7.00 or more with a Tier 1 ratio below 6.5%.
