  2. Tasks Performed By Bank Capital • Provides a Cushion Against Risk of Failure • Provides Funds to Help Banks Get Started • Promotes Public Confidence • Provides Funds for Growth • Regulator of Growth • Role in Growth of Bank Mergers • Regulatory Tool to Limit Risk Exposure • Protects the Government’s Deposit Insurance System

  4. Bank Defenses Against Risk • Quality Management • Diversification • Geographic • Portfolio • Deposit Insurance • Owners’ Capital

  5. Common Stock Preferred Stock Surplus Undivided Profits Equity Reserves Subordinated Debentures Minority Interest in Consolidated Subsidiaries Equity Commitment Notes Types of Bank Capital

  6. GAAP Capital

  7. RAP or Regulatory Capital

  8. Market Value Capital

  9. Reasons for Capital Regulation • To Limit the Risk of Bank Failures • To Preserve Public Confidence in Banks • To Limit Losses to the Federal Government Arising from Deposit Insurance Claims

  10. Imposition of Minimum Capital Requirements International Lending and Supervision Act of 1983 – Federal Law That Imposed Minimum Capital Requirements Upon All U.S. Banks and Called for Special Reserves Behind Their Foreign Loans

  11. Leverage Ratio Core Capital Includes: Book Value of Common Equity Capital Cumulative Preferred Stock Minority Interest in the Equity Accounts of Subsidiaries

  12. The Basle Agreement on International Capital Standards An International Treaty Involving the U.S., Canada, Japan and the Nations of Western Europe to Impose Common Capital Requirements On All Banks Based in Those Countries

  13. Tier 1 Capital • Common Stock and Surplus • Undivided Profits • Qualifying Noncumulative Preferred Stock • Minority Interests in the Equity Accounts of Consolidated Subsidiaries • Selected Identifiable Intangible Assets Less Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

  14. Tier 2 Capital • Allowance for Loan and Lease Losses • Subordinated Debt Capital Instruments • Mandatory Convertible Debt • Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock with Unpaid Dividends • Equity Notes • Other Long Term Capital Instruments that Combine Debt and Equity Features

  15. Basle Agreement Capital Requirements • Ratio of Core Capital (Tier 1) to Risk Weighted Assets Must Be At Least 4 Percent • Ratio of Total Capital (Tier 1 and Tier 2) to Risk Weighted Assets Must Be At Least 8 Percent • The Amount of Tier 2 Capital Limited to 100 Percent of Tier 1 Capital

  16. Calculating Risk-Weighted Assets • Compute Credit-Equivalent Amount of Each Off-Balance Sheet (OBS) Item • Find the Appropriate Risk-Weight Category for Each Balance Sheet and OBS Item • Multiply Each Balance Sheet and Credit-Equivalent OBS Item By the Correct Risk-Weight • Add to Find the Total Amount of Risk-Weighted Assets

  17. What is Left Out of the Original Basle Agreement • The Most Glaring Hole with the Original Basle Agreement is its Failure to Deal with Market Risk • In 1995 the Basle Committee Announced New Market Risk Capital Requirements for Their Banks • In the U.S. Banks Can Create Their Own In-House Models to Measure Their Market Risk Exposure • Regulators Would Then Determine the Amount of Capital Required Based Upon Their Estimate • Banks That Continuously Estimate Their Market Risk Poorly Would Be Required to Hold Extra Capital

  18. Value at Risk (VAR) Models A Statistical Framework for Measuring a Bank Portfolio’s Exposure to Changes in Market Prices or Market Rates Over a Given Time Period Subject to a Given Probability

  19. New Capital Standards Proposed to Follow Basle • Growing International Awareness that the Old Capital Standards Have Too Many Weaknesses • Some Proposed Changes Include Using New Risk Weights Based on External Credit Ratings • It Also Calls for Simplifying Current Capital Requirements for Community Banks • Another Proposal is to Require Money-Center Banks to Issue at Least a Minimum Amount of Subordinated Debt Capital

  20. Capital Adequacy Categories Based on Prompt Corrective Action • Well Capitalized • Adequately Capitalized • Undercapitalized • Significantly Undercapitalized • Critically Undercapitalized

  21. Internal Capital Growth Rate = ROE X Retention Ratio = Profit Margin X Asset Utilization X Equity Multiplier X Retention Ratio

  22. Planning to Meet a Bank’s Capital Needs • Raising Capital Internally • Dividend Policy • Internal Capital Growth Rate • Raising Capital Externally • Issuing Common Stock • Issuing Preferred Stock • Issuing Subordinated Notes and Debentures • Selling Assets and Leasing Facilities • Swapping Stock for Debt Securities • Choosing the Best Alternative
