Welcome to IOU Digital Library

This official publication by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS), hosted by the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), presents the revised international framework for banking regulation known as Basel II. It builds upon the original 1988 Basel Capital Accord and introduces a more risk-sensitive approach to capital adequacy requirements. The framework is structured around three pillars: Minimum Capital Requirements – refined rules for credit, market, and operational risk. Supervisory Review Process – guidelines to ensure banks maintain capital consistent with their risk profiles. Market Discipline – enhanced disclosure requirements to improve transparency and strengthen market confidence. This comprehensive version consolidates earlier updates and amendments into a single authoritative reference, providing global standards for banking stability, risk management, and supervisory practices. It has served as the cornerstone of international financial regulation, influencing banking laws and supervisory frameworks worldwide.
