This study has examined the implementation process, effects, outcomes, of Basel II & reforms of Basel III within the Al-Arafah Islami Bank Limited. The purpose of Basel II is to create regulation about how many capital banks need to put away to guard against the financial and operational risk. Basel III newly introduced accord provides stricter approach toward managing risk with capital in order to strengthen capital & liquidity structure of international banking system. The purpose & aim of this study is to analyze capital adequacy framework whether it is complied with the regulatory supervisions under the prescription of Bangladesh bank as well as its capability to absorb shocks arising from financial and economic stress. Published disclosures & financial statements of last five years are used to collect data. OLS regression model is used to find out the relationship between profitability and capital adequacy requirement in terms of relevant influencing variables (e.g. asset turnover, size of the firm, capital adequacy ratios).capital adequacy ratio of this bank is higher than minimum standard level. The average capital adequacy ratio (CAR) is about 13.78%. The result of regression analysis is statistically significant and there is a positive relationship between capital and return on asset (ROA).If the capital adequacy requirement is increased the return on asset (ROA) will be increased. Islamic Banking sector has some uniqueness compared to the conventional Banking sector. Products are linked with real economic activities that are why financial crisis of 2008 did not create any extreme pressure on this sector.

The banking sector in any economy plays a significant role in its growth and development. This paper is based on financial performance analysis of two leading banks of India. This paper aims to evaluate financial performance of HDFC and SBI bank on the basis of accounting ratios and also to study the functioning of the Indian banking system [6]. In this paper different ratios of both the banks are compared. Capital adequacy ratio, debt equity ratio, leverage ratios, profit and loss account ratios, net interest margin ratio, return on equity and other ratios are used to compare the performance of both the banks. This research is based on the data collected from financial statements of the banks. The performance of both the banks are compared from the year 2015 to 2020. It is observed that performance of HDFC is better than SBI not only in terms of ratio analysis but also in terms of customer satisfaction.

Abstract The banking sector has a very important position for the economic systemof a country. The banking system, which is part of the financial system willaffect the course of the economic system as a whole. If the banking system isweak then the system will also be weak economy. Banking is an intermediaryinstitution is the institution that channel funds from surplus funds (surplusunits) to the sectors that lack of funds (defi cit units). With the banking economic actors in need of funds can be met so that the economy can continue to run. In this study will specifi cally analyze the comparison of the level of profi tability of the asset-liability management in Islamic banks and conventional banks are seen from the return on assets and return on equity rises. It also will be studied comparative level of liquidity in Islamic banks and conventional banks are seen from the loan to deposit ratio and Capital Adequacy Ratio. By Hyphothesis is as follows : Ha1: there are differences in the level of profitability of the asset-liabilitymanagement in Islamic banks and conventional banks are seen from the return on assets and return on equity Ha2: there are differences in the level of liquidity in Islamic banks andconventional banks are seen from the loan to deposit ratio and Capital Adequacy Ratio Data analysis has been done obtained the following conclusions, based onmeans testing compare with test Independent-Samples t-test showed that the level of tability seen from ROA and ROE between Islamic Bank and Bank Konvensiona show any signifi cant difference. This is demonstrated by tests of signifi cance 0.02 0.05 for FDR, while for the signifi cance test CAR of 0.38> 0.05.

Abstract This paper contributes to the literature by providing recent empirical evidence about the positioning of the capital adequacy ratios (Basel II capital adequacy ratio and leverage ratio as proposed by Basel III) of Turkish banks and the business cycle. As in many emerging countries, the Turkish real sector is highly dependent on the banking loans for financing, and consequently, the macroeconomic system is vulnerable to the supply of bank loans. The results reveal that the Basel II capital adequacy ratio of Turkish banks is procyclical at a statistical significance in normal and crisis times. The results of cyclicality tests of the leverage ratio are mixed: if nominal GDP growth is taken as a business cycle indicator, it is procyclical; however, the credit-to-GDP gap signals countercyclical leverage ratios in normal times. In crisis times, the leverage ratio of the Turkish banking system is determined to be countercyclical.

Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of capital adequacy ratio (CAR) prescribed in Basel III on the risk-taking behaviour of Islamic and conventional commercial banks in Malaysia. It also investigates the claim that the risk-taking behaviour of Islamic banks (IBs) and conventional banks (CBs) managers is identically influenced by CAR. Design/methodology/approach Secondary data for all CBs operating in the Malaysian banking sector are gathered from FitchConnect database for the 2011–2017 period. Both dynamic ordinary least squares and generalised method of moments techniques are used to estimate a panel data of 43 commercial banks, namely, 17 IBs and 26 CBs. Findings The findings of this study lend support to the favourable influence of CAR set in Basel III accord on risk-taking behaviour of both types of banks. CBs appeared to be remarkably better off in terms of capital buffers. Evidence is established on the identicality of the risk-taking behaviour of IBs and CBs managers under CAR influence. Practical implications Even though a high CAR is observed to hamper risk-taking of banks, the findings may serve as a signal to regulators to be mindful of the implications of holding a high CAR. Similarly, managers may capitalise on the findings in terms of strategising for efficient use of the considerable capital buffers. Shareholders are also concerned about managers’ use of the considerable capital buffers. Originality/value This study is among a few studies that endeavoured to provide empirical evidence on the claim that IBs mimic the conduct of CBs in light of the influence of CAR prescribed in Basel III on risk-taking behaviour, particularly banks operating within the same banking environment.

The stability of International banking system has emerged as a key concern for regulators in rapidly changing global banking scenario. In order to strengthen the soundness and stability of banks, Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) came out with a comprehensive, flexible and risk sensitive framework known as Basel II. This paper attempts to assess in detail the role of Reserve Bank of India, in implementation of Basel II framework in Indian banking Scenario. For this purpose, Annual reports of Reserve Bank of India for the period 2002–03 to 2009–2010 have been analyzed in detail. The study has indicated that RBI has taken significant and structural initiatives to implement the Basel II norms in Indian financial system. It also gives glimpse of New Capital Adequacy framework to strengthen the banking structure. The study further throws light on challenges faced by Indian banking industry for the purpose of envisaged implementation of Basel II Accord.

Abstract There are many different approaches to the process of stress testing and two of them will be investigated in this paper. The first one is a stress test performed on aggregated data i.e. the banking system as a whole. The variable of interest in both exercises is the Loan Loss Provision ratio (hereinafter: the LLP). The main goal of the thesis is to find an answer to the following question: what are the macroeconomic variables that influence LLP the most and how will LLP, as a variable of interest, behave in a situation when all these variables were to experience negative performance at the same time? The resilience of the banking system to such scenario will be tested through the capital adequacy ratio. In order to find out more about the management practices of banks, microlevel data on banks were also used in the analysis. The focus was to see which of the variables are able to explain the LLP ratio for each bank individually and how is this information helpful for possible improvements in the banking sector. The relations between these variables will be able to explain some of the banks’ losses and some of the banks’ practices regarding credit activities. The analysis there will provide for some recommendations for the banks but also for the Central Bank and its way to influence the practices in the banking sector.

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effects of capital adequacy on the return of assets to the banking sector in Kosovo. The capital adequacy ratio measures the ability of a financial institution to meet its liabilities by comparing its capital with its assets. As the banking system is one of the strongest points of our country's economy, it is understood that the capital adequacy ratio is used by banks to determine the adequacy of their capital holdings while taking their risk exposures into account.This study will provide empirical evidence of the relationship between capital adequacy and return on commercial bank assets in Kosovo during 2008-2017. It will be using secondary data obtained from audited reports of domestic banks and reports from the Central Bank of Kosovo. To measure the empirical results during this research, these econometric methods have been used: the linear regression model, the model of the fixed effects, and the random model and the GMM model. Based on the results we can conclude that capital adequacy has a positive impact on asset returns and has a significant relationship. In addition, other factors have had a positive and negative impact on the return of commercial banks' assets in Kosovo. Keywords: capital adequacy, return on assets, loans, deposits, interest rates.JEL Classification: G21, G31, G32

Capital adequacy ratio serves as a basic indicator linking current equities of banks to the amount of risk that they can undertake. Therefore, it is taken into consideration while evaluating banks and expected to be at a normal level. According to the Basel I criteria published by the Basel Committee in 1988 for the international banking sector, capital adequacy ratio as “Total Capital / Credit Risk” should be at least 8%. Basel I Criteria began to be implemented in Turkey in 1992. In this process, it was decided that capital adequacy ratio would be implemented as 8% starting from 1998 in Turkey. The purpose of this study is to identify the factors affecting the capital adequacy of state-owned, private and foreign deposit banks operating in Turkey between 2009-2019. The result obtained from the analysis has revealed that the established model is significant. The ratio of independent variables for explaining the dependent variable is 36%. The independent variable OME has a statistically significant and positive effect on the dependent variable at 1% significance level.

This study implements a macroprudential stress test and develops the EconomicRisk Weighted-Capital Adequacy Ratio (ERW-CAR) to evaluate the resilience of theIndonesian banking sector. The results show that the historical and one-year aheadpredicted ERW-CARs are currently three percent lower than the Indonesia regulatoryCAR, and continue to decrease by nearly two percent following an exchange rate shock.However, the capital adequacy requirement stands above the eight percent thresholdand the banks are still able to optimize their capital allocation.

Aim. The presented study aims to examine measures taken by the Russian government, actions of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation (CBR, Bank of Russia), and strategies of banks in the context of continuing anti-Russian sanctions and the coronavirus pandemic while also assessing whether they are sufficient to strengthen the country’s banking system.Tasks. The authors determine what measures are taken by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation to maintain the financial stability of the banking sector and an acceptable equity capital adequacy ratio; analyze the strategies of banks and the way they are adjusted in the context of sanctions and the pandemic; show the role of subordinated bonds as a source of the banks’ own funds.Methods. This study uses general scientific methods of cognition to analyze the problems of the banking system as well as the policy of the Central Bank of the Russian Federation and the Russian government aimed at overcoming the recession and maintaining financial stability in the banking sector.Results. As a result of unconventional decisions taken by the Central Bank of the Russian Federation, the total assets of the banking sector exceeded the pre-crisis level by the beginning of this year. Optimistic forecasts indicate that banks are adapting to changing conditions, adjusting their strategies accordingly.Conclusions. The Russian banking system passed the endurance test during the pandemic, generally maintaining an acceptable capital adequacy ratio. Due to large-scale government support, the economic decline in Russia has slowed down, and there are signs of recovery growth. Banks entered 2021 with an obvious headstart. Almost all banks in the top 200 made a profit.
