Measurement and Capital Standards:
A Revised Framework”

Basel II Accord Objectives
• International convergence on regulations governing
capital adequacy of internationally active banks
• Framework for measuring capital adequacy to
strengthen the soundness and stability of the
international banking system
• Consistency so capital adequacy regulation will not
cause competitive inequality among international banks
• Adopt strong industry risk management practices
• Minimum standard for national supervisory authorities
• Maintain the aggregate level of minimum capital
requirements and provide incentives to adopt the
advanced risk-sensitive approaches of the revised
Framework
Three Pillar Approach
• Minimum Capital Requirements
• Supervisory Review
• Market Discipline
Pillar 1
• Calculation of Minimum Capital
Requirements considering
o Credit Risk
o Operational Risk
o Market Risk
Pillar 2 – Supervisory Review of
Capital Adequacy – Four Key
Principles
1.Banks’ process for assessing their overall
capital in relation to their risk profile, and
Strategy for maintaining their capital levels
Pillar 2 – Supervisory Review of
Capital Adequacy – Four Key
Principles
2. Review & evaluate banks’ internal capital
adequacy assessments and strategies, as well as
their ability to monitor and ensure compliance with
regulatory capital ratios.
Take appropriate supervisory action if not satisfied
with the results of this process.
Pillar 2 – Supervisory Review of
Capital Adequacy – Four Key
Principles
3. Expect banks to operate above the
minimum regulatory capital ratios, and
Require banks to hold capital in excess of
the minimum.
Pillar 2 – Supervisory Review of
Capital Adequacy – Four Key
Principles
4. Supervisor intervention at an early stage
to keep capital at or above the minimum
levels for the risk characteristics of a
particular bank and
Require a rapid remedy if capital is not
maintained or restored
Pillar 3 – Market Discipline
through Enhanced Public
Disclosure

pillar of this Framework will be essential
Ensuring market discipline is an effective
complement to the other two pillars.
