Central Bank of Tunisia Circular No. 2018-06 to Banks and Financial Institutions dated June 5, 2018
The Central Bank of Tunisia issued Circular No. 2018-06 to establish comprehensive capital adequacy standards for banks and financial institutions, mandating minimum solvency (10%) and Tier I (7%) ratios. The regulation defines core and supplementary capital components, specifies risk-weighted asset calculations for credit, operational, and market risks, and sets precise weighting factors for balance sheet and off-balance sheet exposures. Furthermore, it requires institutions to maintain transparent internal capital strategies, strictly limit non-transparent funding practices, and ensure continuous compliance through defined reporting and audit procedures.
