KPMG’s Global
Regulatory Pressure Index
Regulatory Pressure Index
Global pressure continues to grow
Overall, regulatory pressures have risen again this year. In some areas this reflects the continuing challenges of implementing regulatory
reforms, now that the details of the regulations have become clear. This includes:
■ Most of the core Basel 3 capital and liquidity standards;
■ Risk and performance-adjusted remuneration; and
■ Some market infrastructure requirements.

Regulatory Pressure Index
Regulatory change – Regional divergences
■ Pressures remain highest in North America and Europe, with the most severe pressures in the areas of capital, systemic risk, conduct
and culture, and the intensity of supervision.
■ Steady increase in regulatory pressure on banks in the Asia-Pacific region has continued, particularly in liquidity and retail and wholesale
conduct.
■ The highest regulatory pressure in LATAM is in the areas of financial crime and tax.
■ In other areas the regulatory pressures reflect the continuing development of regulatory initiatives that are at various stages of evolution,
including the risk weighting of assets, the designation and regulatory treatment of domestic systemically important banks (D-SIBs),
macro-prudential policy, retail and wholesale market conduct and culture, risk governance, and recovery and resolution planning.

Regulatory Pressure Index
Key areas of regulatory pressure by region
Capital – Even as the core Basel 3 standards are being implemented, the shift towards ‘Basel 4’ continues, with the calibration of the
leverage ratio either set higher than 3 percent (as in Switzerland and the United States, and proposed in the United Kingdom) or yet to be
determined, and new pressures on banks emerging from stress testing and from wide-ranging revisions to risk-weighted assets, including
the Federal Reserve’s proposed risk-based capital surcharge for global systemically important bank holding companies (GSIBs).
Supervision – In addition to the generally tougher supervision that has emerged in all regions since the financial crisis, making the ECB
the single banking supervisor in the Banking Union area has already led to a more demanding supervisory approach for many banks
subject to direct supervision by the ECB.
Governance – Banks are coming under increasing pressure from supervisors to demonstrate that they are meeting the corporate, risk,
and data governance requirements in the series of FSB papers on risk governance, the Basel Committee’s revised governance principles,
and the Basel Committee’s principles for risk data aggregation and risk reporting. Some countries (including the United Kingdom and the
United States) are also seeking to increase the personal responsibility and accountability of senior managers and executives.

Regulatory Pressure Index
Key areas of regulatory pressure by region (continued)
Liquidity – Further revisions to the liquidity coverage ratio (LCR) and net stable funding ratio (NSFR) calculations have, on balance,
reduced the pressures here, in particular in Europe through the more generous treatment of covered bonds as a source of high quality
liquid assets. However, as with capital requirements, the overlay of stress testing (already underway for the largest US banks), Pillar 2, and
macro-prudential requirements for liquidity may increase the regulatory pressures on banks significantly.
Systemic risk – Increasing pressures, particularly in Europe and the United States, are building from the designation and regulatory
treatment of GSIBS and D-SIBs, minimum requirements for banks to issue long-term bail-in liabilities, and the increasing use of macroprudential instruments.
Culture & Conduct – A series of misconduct episodes in the retail, wholesale, and capital markets has left banks and regulators seeking to
improve conduct and culture. Regulation and supervision are becoming increasingly intensive in this area.

Regulatory Pressure Index
Key areas of regulatory pressure by region (continued)
The highest regulatory pressures here concern financial crime and tax. Banks face increasing demands to demonstrate they
meet the stringent requirements of the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) and of local rules on anti-money
laundering and terrorist financing. Meanwhile, an increasing number of countries are entering into information-sharing
agreements on tax, requiring banks to report large amounts of information.

Regulation: The road to implementation
The volume of unfinished business is diminishing somewhat as more regulations are moving through the design and calibration
stages to implementation, and fewer regulatory reform initiatives remain at an earlier developmental stage.

Six areas where banks will need to respond to the continuing evolution of regulatory and supervisory requirements:
1. Macro-prudential regulation
2. Risk-weighted assets
3. Comprehensive Assessment
4. Enhanced Prudential Supervision Standards
5. Total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) and minimum required eligible liabilities (MREL)
6. Culture/Conduct

Regulatory developments
1. Macro-prudential regulation – watch this space
Institutional structures
Institutional structures for macro-prudential policy are taking shape across the globe.
Powers
National authorities (and the ECB) are putting powers in place for the use of a wide range of macro-prudential policy tools. In the United
States and EU, many of these powers and tools include:
■ The counter-cyclical capital buffer (along the lines set out in Basel 3);
■ A systemic risk buffer (SRB), where the Financial Conduct Authority’s Capital Requirements Directive (CRD IV) provides discretion for
member states to impose an SRB in order to address long-term non-cyclical systemic risks not already covered by the minimum capital
requirements;
■ Proposed risk-based capital surcharges on G-SIBs and other systemically important financial institutions; and
■ Additional macro-prudential tools, such as large exposure limits, liquidity requirements, sector-specific risk weights to target asset
bubbles in the residential and commercial property sectors, limits on intra-financial sector exposures, and disclosure requirements.
Implications for banks
■ Banks need to understand what macro-prudential policy measures might be applied to them, when, by whom, and on what basis.
■ These measures may be difficult to predict and follow, especially where new and multiple agencies are involved.
■ Macro-prudential requirements can be large – both absolutely and relative to other regulatory requirements.
■ Macro-prudential requirements can also be wide-ranging – they can operate not just through additional capital requirements, but
also through leverage, liquidity, lending standards, sectoral risk weightings, and property taxes.
■ Additional complexity may arise through the patchy application of reciprocity across countries to banks’ cross-border exposures.

Regulatory developments
2. Risk-weighted assets (RWAs)
The intention of the standard setters and regulators is clear: to introduce a revised set of standardised approaches, and to use these to
constrain the extent to which banks can reduce their capital requirements through the use of internal models. Completing the ‘Basel 4’
picture, these RWA revisions will then complement the development of international standards on leverage and the use of severe but
plausible stress tests as additional determinants of minimum capital requirements.
Implications for banks
■ Potentially reduce significantly the benefits to banks from the use of internal model-based approaches to credit, market, and
operational risk.
■ For some banks, increase the capital required under the standardised approaches and the Collins Amendment’s capital floors.
■ Systems and data management enhancements to calculate the new standardised approaches – including by banks using internal
model-based approaches.
■ Supervisory checks that banks are collecting and applying accurate data on their risk exposures, including the valuation of
residential and commercial real estate, and the calculation of corporate leverage ratios. Deficiencies here could lead to the
imposition of additional Pillar 2 capital requirements.
■ Wider implications on the economy as banks re-price and pull back from some activities. The move to risk drivers and more risksensitive risk weightings will accentuate the capital requirement cost to banks for exposures judged under the proposals to be at
the riskier end of the spectrum. This could increase the cost – and reduce the availability – of bank finance and other services for
borrowers and other customers.

2. Risk-weighted assets (RWAs)
(continued)
Rationale and overall regulatory approach
Credit risk: standardised approach (cont.)
Regulators are concerned that:
■ Banks – replace external credit ratings with two risk drivers: the
capital adequacy ratio and an asset quality ratio of the borrower,
to determine risk weights ranging from 30-30%.
■ The standardised approaches to credit and counterparty risk
relied too heavily on external credit ratings;
■ Some banks have been too aggressive in the use of internal
model-based approaches to drive down risk weightings; and
■ Risk weightings generated by internal models are too
inconsistent, complex, and opaque, and this lack of transparency
constrains the scope for relying on market discipline.
■ Credit risk mitigation – amend the framework by reducing the
number of approaches, recalibrating supervisory haircuts, and
updating corporate guarantor eligibility criteria.
■ Sovereigns, central banks and public sector entities – no changes
at this stage, pending a wider review of sovereign exposures.
Credit risk: standardised approach
■ Corporate exposures – replace external credit ratings with two
risk drivers: the revenue and leverage of the borrower, to
determine risk weights ranging from 60-30%.
■ Residential mortgages – determine risk weights by two risk
drivers: loan-to-value and debt-service coverage ratios, with risk
weights ranging from 25-10%.
■ Other retail – tighten the criteria to qualify for the 75% preferential
risk weight.
■ Exposures secured on commercial real estate – two options here:
(a) to treat these as unsecured exposures to the counterparty,
with a national discretion for a preferential risk weight under
certain conditions, or (b) to determine risk weights on the basis of
the loan-to-value ratio, with risk weights ranging from 75-120%.
Operational risk: standardised approach
■ Banks – proposed revisions include: (a) refining the operational
risk proxy indicator by replacing gross income with a statistically
superior measure of operational risk termed the Business
Indicator (BI) and comprised of the three macro-components of a
bank’s income statement: the “interest component,” “services
component,” and the “financial component,” and (b) improving the
calibration of the regulatory coefficients, preliminarily identified as
a five-bucket structure with corresponding coefficients increasing
in value from 10 percent to 30 percent as the BI increases in
value.

3. Comprehensive Assessment – immediate and longer-term impacts (continued)
During 2014, the ECB conducted a Comprehensive assessment of 130 major banks from 18 member states in the euro area, constituting
around 85 percent of euro area bank assets. The two main elements of this assessment were an asset quality review (AQR) and a stress
test (conducted jointly with the EBA on an EU-wide basis).
Asset quality review
■ As expected, the AQR identified a series of issues, reflecting in part the application of a common approach to impairment criteria and
provisioning levels across the euro area.
Implications for banks
■ Post-AQR follow-up agenda set out by the ECB.
■ Incentive to sell off non-performing exposures.
■ Wider range of banks subject to stress tests specified by the EBA and ECB, requiring these banks to provide more detailed
reported data.
■ Greater emphasis in future stress tests on specific areas of banks’ activities (sovereign debt, household sector, trading book,
international and emerging market exposures), the leverage ratio, funding and liability structure, and operational risk and the costs
of misconduct.
■ Greater emphasis in future stress tests on banks’ processes and systems for converting macro and financial variable stress tests
into an impact on their capital ratios.

3. Comprehensive Assessment – immediate and longer-term impacts (continued)
The ECB intends to follow up the key shortcomings revealed by the AQR.
AQR shortcomings
Fair value hierarchy
Banks will need to revisit their internal definitions and ensure they are aligned to accounting policies adopted by the EU.
Forbearance
Banks will need to meet revised expectations on how they identify exposures to which forbearance should apply.
Provisioning
Large AQR adjustment to carrying values highlights the poor coverage ratios across the industry and a need for banks to improve their
provisioning processes.
Collective provisioning
The AQR revealed that a number of banks were out of line with accounting standards in (i) not drawing a clear distinction between
individual and collectively provisioned exposures; (ii) not justifying and quantifying emergence periods applied to incurred but not reported
calculations; and (iii) using nominal or market rates rather than the effective interest rate.
Data systems and quality
Some banks lacked easily accessible financial information for debtors such as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and
amortisation (EBITDA) and cash flows, making it difficult for them to assess the true financial health of borrowers.
Trading book processes
Banks were found to have weaknesses in model validation; credit valuation adjustment (CVA) calculation methodologies; fair value
adjustments; independent price verification; and management information on P&L attribution.

4. Supervision – a new world for large banks
Large banks should expect a demand for more data at a very granular level, as regulators undertake large-scale programs and
information collection activities that leverage technological advances for analyzing data.
Implications for banks
■ Increasing data demands – so banks need a technical infrastructure which is both flexible enough to allow for changing requests and
well-enough embedded in a bank’s risk management infrastructure to facilitate periodic exercises such as stress tests.
■ An increasingly pan-European approach to supervision and the phasing out of national discretions.
■ Rigorous supervisory assessment of key supervisory review and evaluation process (SREP) areas.
■ Higher Pillar 2 capital requirements.
■ Increasing number of inspections – both bank-specific and as part of horizontal reviews.
■ New ECB supervisory culture.
ECB supervision
Large banks supervised
directly by the ECB will
be supervised by joint
supervisory teams, drawn
together from the ECB’s
own staff and staff from
the relevant national
supervisor(s).
Key features of ECB supervision will include:
■ A common SREP, following the ECB’s Guide to Banking Supervision and the eBa’s SREP guidelines
(December 2014).
■ A series of horizontal reviews, including a review of variations in risk-weighted assets across
jurisdictions arising from differences in national requirements and supervisory approaches to banks’
use of internal models.
■ Rigorous risk analysis at a sector and systemic risk level, based on very detailed data from the banks.
■ Follow-up to the deficiencies uncovered in the AQR and the stress test.
■ Pressure from the ECB on national supervisory authorities to apply more consistent approaches to the
banks they continue to supervise, in line with the ECB’s approach to directly supervised banks.

5. TLAC and MREL – new kids on the block
The FSB issued a consultative paper on TLAC (total loss absorbing capacity) just ahead of the G20 Brisbane summit in
November
■ The FSB proposals are limited to G-SIBs (excluding those from emerging economies) and will not apply until 2019.
■ The EBA proposals for EU credit institutions to hold minimum required eligible liabilities (MREL) will apply a similar approach to the
TLAC proposal – and apply it much sooner – to a wider range of banks in Europe.
Implications for banks
■ Banks subject to a TLAC and/or MREL requirement may need to raise additional debt that qualifies for inclusion, or to convert
some existing long term debt into eligible debt instruments.
■ Banks funded primarily by customer deposits – may have to replace some of these deposits with long-term debt.
■ G-SIBs in the EU will have to meet whichever requirement is higher for them – the RWA-based TLAC or the total liability-based
MREL.
■ In addition banks will need to take account of:
– Strategic considerations;
– Balance sheet management;
– Risk management; and
– Local requirements.

5. TLAC and MREL – new kids on the block (continued)
What do TLAC and MREL provide?
What is included in TLAC and MREL?
TLAC and MREL take the resolution powers of national
authorities one step further, by requiring systemically important
banks to hold a minimum amount of ‘junior’ liabilities that could
be bailed in ahead of ordinary ‘senior’ creditors, and without
disrupting the provision of critical functions or giving rise to
material risk of successful legal challenge or compensation
claims.
The TLAC and MREL proposals differ slightly in their eligibility
criteria, with the MREL proposals based on the provisions of the
Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive (BRRD), which do not
require eligible liabilities to be subordinated to all other non-TLAC
liabilities.

6. Culture/Conduct
As regulators believe cultural deficiencies were a key contributor to the financial crisis, fostering a sound risk culture
that emanates from the top of the house and cascades downward will continue to be a focus
■ Banks are struggling to instill a sustainable risk culture and manage conduct risk
■ Cultures are not always consistent across divisions, business lines, or legal entities
■ Effectively monitoring culture and conduct risk is also posing a challenge
■ Key indicators for measuring culture can include attrition, level of Board engagement, demonstration of effective challenge,
and willingness of Boards to quickly address risk appetite breaches
Implications for banks
■ Regulators will likely continue to looking for evidence that banks are reinforcing a consistent risk culture through:
– Training and awareness programs
– An active communications strategy
– Alignment of their compensation policies with their risk appetite

6. Culture/Conduct (continued)
A “good culture” is marked by specific values - integrity, trust, and respect for the law – carried out with the spirit of a fiduciarytype duty toward customers and a moral obligation toward market integrity. It fosters an environment conducive to timely
recognition, escalation, and control of emerging risks and risk-taking activities that are beyond a bank’s risk appetite statement.
A culture is influenced by multiple facets, though indicators of a “good culture” include:
1

Impact of regulatory
pressures on bank
structure
Numerous issues are driving changes for banks
A number of regulatory pressures are driving changes in
bank structure. Some of the commercial and operational
synergies that many bank business models were based
upon are being undermined by these pressures, especially
at universal and cross-border banks.
Regulatory pressures on bank structure
Capital
Central

clearing
The regulatory pressures on bank structures include:
■ Higher costs of doing business (higher of minimum
requirements for capital, leverage, eligible bail-in liabilities,
liquidity, risk governance, and the trading, clearing and
reporting of derivatives);
Macroprudential
Liquidity
Securitizations

Numerous issues are driving changes for banks
Banks also face a variety of economic and commercial pressures.
Together, these pressures are driving changes in bank structure.
The rules of the game have changed and the business model needs to change accordingly. Banks need to
focus on:
1. Product and customer propositions and pricing;
2. Balance sheet size and composition, and capital planning;
3. Legal structure, across types of business and across jurisdictions; and
4. Operational structure, including governance, management, organisational structure, risk management and
compliance, distribution channels, payment and settlement arrangements, trade and other transaction booking,
and the provision of services to support critical economic functions.

Other pressures on banks

The picture is different for many banks in the Middle East, where difficult conditions in traditional domestic markets (relatively small
populations, highly competitive markets for lending to large corporates, and problems in some large borrowers) have led to attempts to
expand some large borrowers) have led to attempts to expand lending to SMEs, and to an expansion of overseas activity, including in
support of trade between the Middle East and Turkey, Africa and Asia.

What do banks need to do?
What do banks need to do?
Banks need to build a viable and sustainable business model, which
delivers adequate returns, adequate capital and liquidity resources,
and acceptable resolvability.
At the center: Sustainability and viability of banks’
business models
Profitability
• RoE more than covers cost of equity
• Successful provision of profitable
business lines
• Cost control
Viable and sustainable business model
A fundamental overhaul of a bank’s business model requires:
■ A clear understanding of performance, including at business
activity level;
■ Managing out non-performing exposures;
■ Capital optimisation;
■ Re-pricing;
■ Cost reduction; and
■ The development of a revised strategy.

This amount of re-pricing is unlikely to be achievable. Banks
attempting to deliver such an increase would lose business to other,
less pressured, banks and to non-banks. The IMF therefore uses
this measure not to predict how far margins will actually rise, but as
an indicator of how far banks still have to move in their transition to
new business models.

capital constraints and are able to increase their customer lending.

What do banks need to do? (continued)
Cost reduction
Banks also need to cut costs. Some progress has been made here since the financial crisis, but the rising cost to income ratio for
European banks shows that significantly more progress needs to be made. Banks in the Middle East (where cost to income ratios are
generally lower than in Europe) are also focusing increasingly on cost reduction, not least in response to the sharp decline on oil prices.
Five areas provide significant scope for many banks to reduce costs
Salary costs
On average, bank salaries have continued to rise more rapidly than in most other sectors of the economy, and have not reflected the
declines in bank income and profitability since the financial crisis.
Staff numbers
The closure of, or reduction in, some business lines, branch closures, and greater reliance on digital delivery channels for products and
services all provide scope for a further reduction in staff numbers.
Simplification
Some of the cost base of banks reflects the complexity of their products, services, legal and operating structures, operating platforms
and systems, and booking models. There is scope to simplify in all these areas, and to drive down costs accordingly.
Investment in technology
Combined with less complexity, IT investment is capable of reducing costs over the longer term, while also improving (or at least
protecting) income through improved customer service, risk management and cyber security.
Outsourcing/shared services
Banks should be able to benefit from centralised and streamlined infrastructure platforms capable of supporting multiple business and
customer propositions, on either an internal or outsourced basis.

What do banks need to do? (continued)
Strategy
Banks are pursuing different strategies. There is no unique path to a viable and sustainable future.
Five approaches can be identified:
Some banks already have a successful business model which has proved to be robust during the financial crisis, delivering across
the dimensions of profitability, capital and liquidity.
A small number of banks have moved decisively to a different and viable business model in response to the financial crisis, not
least by moving quickly to identify and develop successful core business activities, shedding activities deemed to be insufficiently
profitable, and simplifying and rationalising legal and operational structures.
Some banks are adopting a proactive approach to strategic change, but without a very clear sense of an end point. The jury is still out
on whether this will be sufficient to generate a viable and sustainable future.
Many banks have been forced to contract and restructure to survive, but very reactively in response to losses and capital
shortfalls. This may have enabled these banks to meet minimum regulatory requirements, but it remains uncertain whether they
have a viable and sustainable future in terms of profitability.
Too many banks are hoping that a battered model will somehow pull through in the end, without the need for significant strategic
change.
