Title

Basel III Monitoring Report March 2019 (June 2018 data).

Abstract

This report presents the results of the Basel Committee's latest Basel III monitoring exercise, based on data as of 30 June 2018. Through a rigorous reporting process, the Committee regularly reviews the implications of the Basel III standards for banks, and has been publishing the results of such exercises since 2012. The report sets out the impact of the Basel III framework that was initially agreed in 2010 as well as the effects of the Committee's December 2017 finalisation of the Basel III reforms. However, it does not yet reflect the finalisation of the market risk framework published in January 2019.

Data are provided for a total of 189 banks, including 106 large internationally active banks. These "Group 1" banks are defined as internationally active banks that have Tier 1 capital of more than 3 billion, and include all 29 institutions that have been designated as global systemically important banks (G-SIBs). The Basel Committee's sample also includes 83 "Group 2" banks (ie banks that have Tier 1 capital of less than 3 billion or are not internationally active).

The final Basel III minimum requirements are expected to be implemented by 1 January 2022 and fully phased in by 1 January 2027. On a fully phased-in basis, the capital shortfalls at the end-June 2018 reporting date are 30.1 billion for Group1 banks at the target level. These shortfalls are more than 70% smaller than in the end-2015 cumulative QIS exercise, thanks mainly to higher levels of eligible capital. For Group 1 banks, the Tier 1 minimum required capital (MRC) would increase by 5.3% following full phasing-in of the final Basel III standards relative to the initial Basel III standards. This compares with an increase of 3.2% at end-2017.

The increases in both shortfalls and the change in MRC over the last six months are driven partly by a higher market risk contribution; this does not yet reflect the finalisation of the market risk framework published in January 2019, which is expected to offset the increases to some extent. By excluding all revisions to the market risk framework, the current end-June 2018 data show increases in Tier 1 MRC of 1.7%, 1.5% and 8.3% for Group 1 banks, G-SIBs and Group 2 banks, respectively, compared to 1.7%, 1.2% and 5.3% six months earlier.

The report also provides data on the initial Basel III minimum capital requirements, total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC)and Basel III's liquidity requirements.
