Technical Guidance on Implementing the Revised Capital Adequacy Framework in Zimbabwe
The Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe issues this technical guidance to implement the revised Basel II framework, mandating that all banking institutions calculate risk-based capital adequacy ratios across credit, market, and operational risks. The guideline establishes standardized and advanced internal ratings-based approaches for capital charge calculations while introducing enhanced supervisory review processes to ensure continuous risk management assessment. It further requires banking groups to maintain consolidated capital buffers and publish detailed financial disclosures to strengthen market discipline and align regulatory capital with economic risk profiles.
