Curriculum

Module : Broad Areas - Capital & Basel

1.Basel I

The origins of capital requirements regulation can be seen in the first Basel capital accord (Basel I). Here we describe the original Basel regulatory requirements in relation to capital adequacy.

2.Basel II and Basel 2.5: Basics

The Basel I framework was significantly overhauled by the three-pillars approach in Basel II. Here we outline the evolution of regulatory capital requirements from Basel I to the three pillars approach of Basel II and the subsequent amendments made under Basel 2.5.

3.Basel III: Basics

The financial crisis highlighted that the quantity and quality of bank capital was inadequate, despite the extensive changes introduced in Basel II. In addition, the crisis also underlined the need for regulators to address not simply capital adequacy but liquidity and leverage. This is what is being done through the development and implementation of Basel III. We describe how Basel III changes the nature of previous capital adequacy regimes. We also explain some of the reasons why major changes to the Basel II requirements were deemed to be necessary.
