Secrets of Boardroom Leadership Training Course

Description:

Basel III is a global regulatory framework for bank capital adequacy, stress testing, and market liquidity risk. Initially agreed upon by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in 2010-2011, the implementation of these standards was extended to March 31, 2019. Basel III enhances bank capital requirements by increasing liquidity and reducing leverage.
Basel III complements rather than replaces Basel I and II by requiring different levels of reserves for various forms of deposits and other borrowings.
