The National Bank of Belgium maintains the countercyclical capital buffer rate for exposures in Belgium at 1.0% for the second quarter of 2024. This decision implements the previously announced increase from 0.5% to 1.0%, which became effective on 1 April 2024. The rate applies to credit institutions' risk-weighted assets to enhance the banking sector's resilience against potential losses.
