Capital Adequacy News
Posted by David Zaring

The Basel Committee is doing a lot of Basel III capital accord implementation this week.  Page 10 of this report makes it look like the largest banks hold slightly less capital than smaller banks, which is the opposite of what you would want (smaller banks hold more variable capital though).  And this report suggests that the effort to have banks deal with a hypothetical effort to adopt the new capital rules was messy.  Not to worry, though!  As is the case with all Basel documents, bland positivity about the success of the regulatory effort is the tone of the day.
