Bank Capital Regulation

How much capital should financial intermediaries hold? We propose a general equilibrium model with a financial sector that makes risky long‐term loans to firms, funded by deposits from savers. Government guarantees create a role for bank capital regulation. The model captures the sharp and persistent drop in macro‐economic aggregates and credit provision as well as the sharp change in credit spreads observed during financial crises. Policies requiring intermediaries to hold more capital reduce financial fragility, reduce the size of the financial and non‐financial sectors, and lower intermediary profits. They redistribute wealth from savers to the owners of banks and non‐financial firms. Pre‐crisis capital requirements are close to optimal. Counter‐cyclical capital requirements increase welfare.

El sistema finaciero se prepara para afrontar los retos derivados del Nuevo Acuerdo de Capitales aprobado en 2004, que viene a culminar un proceso de regulación financiera definido por la exigencia de capital como expresión de la solvencia. Esta evolución ha dado respuesta a la actividad de los intermediarios financieros, los cambios debidos a la globalización e innovación financiera, y los nuevos riesgos que han surgido en consecuencia. Además, se incorpora la supervisión a través del regulador y de la disciplina de mercado. El artículo resume las características de la regulación de capital bancario, hasta llegar al capital ajustado al riesgo que caracteriza los Acuerdos elaborados desde Basilea, para detallar después los contenidos del Nuevo Acuerdo, sus fortalezas y debilidades, así como su posibles efectos.<br /><br />The financial system is ready to face the challenges derived from the New Basel Capital Accord issued in 2004, which reflects the financial regulatory process characterized by the need of maintaining capital as expression of solvency. This evolution has responded to financial intermediaries activity, changes due to globalization and financial innovation, and the new risks which have came across. Additionally, it includes the supervison aspect through regulators and market discipline. This paper summarizes the characteristics of bank capital regulation, in order to explain risk-based-capital in the Basel Accords, putting forward the New Accord content, as well as its strengths, weaknesses, and possible effects.

This paper identifies the main dimensions of capital regulation. We use survey data from 142 countries from the World Bank?s (2013) database covering various aspects of bank regulation. Using multiple explorative factor analysis, we identify two main dimensions of capital regulation: complexity of capital regulation and stringency of capital regulation. We show that even countries with a common legal and regulatory framework differ substantially in terms of capital regulation. For example, the level of stringency of capital regulation varies substantially across the EU countries, potentially distorting the level playing field.

Bank Capital Regulation

The paper analyzes the evolution of the introduction of international standards for bank capital regulation. The aim of the research is to study international standards for bank capital regulation and their impact on financial stability and sustainability of domestic banking systems. The 2007—2009 Global Financial Crisis was perhaps the greatest banking and financial crisis since bank failures and the financial panic of the Great Depression in early 1930s. According to academics and professionals, there has been much debate over the last decade as to whether the 2007—2009 banking crisis was primarily a solvency crisis or a liquidity crisis. Capital adequacy of banks today is the main indicator of increasing society’s confidence in banking systems. The flexible and balanced implementation of Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) recommendations on the assessment of bank capital adequacy is of particular importance in the context of the deepening economic crisis caused by COVID-19 quarantine restrictions. Regulation of bank capital is primarily settles by the ability to execute basic functions inherent in it. A number of shocks in connection with the crisis require the renewal and search for a new paradigm of regulation, which today is focused on achieving financial stability, overcoming pro-cyclicality, especially in the banking sector. One of the latest developments in the field of bank capital regulation has been the implementation of international banking supervision standards recommended by BCBS, which have been transformed from Basel I, Basel II, Basel III, Basel 3.5 to Basel IV. The new ideology suggests that in times of financial and economic crisis or in anticipation of growing uncertainty in the economy, it is necessary to abandon the idea of bank capital management and the creation of financial reserves to maintain liquidity and stability of financial institutions. These measures will not be able to protect the bank from default and bankruptcy. This ideology has become a new paradigm of effective banking regulation, which can be formulated as an accepted set of three vectors: risk; risk management; risk-oriented supervision.
