Capital Adequacy Regulations Handbook of Procedures

Licensed financial institutions must maintain a capital ratio of qualifying capital to risk-adjusted assets at no less than 8%. Qualifying capital comprises core and supplementary components subject to specific limits, such as core capital constituting at least 50% of the total and general provisions capped at 1.25% of risk-adjusted assets. Institutions are required to compute this ratio using prescribed risk weights for balance sheet and off-balance sheet items and submit the Capital Adequacy Computation (CB100) form within ten working days after the end of each calendar quarter.
