BASLE ACCORD-I
1988 – ‘internationally active banks’ in G10 countries
agreed that bank capital should be at least 8% of assets
measured according to risk profile
Tier –I capital = shareholders’ equity + retained earnings
Banks to initially adopt standardized approach for credit risk and basic
indicator approach for operational risk
CRITICISM OF BASEL-II : POST 2008
FINANCIAL CRISIS
Pro-cyclical approach:
In good times, when banks are doing well, and the market is willing to
invest additional capital in banks, Basel II does not demand more capital
from banks.
However, in bad times, when markets run out of or are unwilling to supply
additional capital, Basel II requires that banks bring in more capital to
support stressed assets.
BASEL-III
Basel-III is a comprehensive set of reform measures to strengthen the regulation,
supervision and risk management of the banking sector. These measures aim to:
Improve the banking sector’s ability to absorb shocks arising from financial and
economic stress, whatever the source
Improve risk management and governance
Strengthen banks’ transparency and disclosure
The reforms target at:
Bank-level, or micro prudential, regulation, which will help raise the resilience of
individual banking institutions to periods of stress.
Macro prudential, system wide risks that can build up across the banking sector as well
as the pro-cyclical amplification of these risks over time.
The Reserve Bank issued Guidelines based on the Basel III reforms on capital
regulation on May 2,2012 which have been implemented from April 1, 2013 in India in
phases and it is fully implemented as on March 31, 2018
