Guidelines on Risk Based Capital Adequacy for Banks (Revised regulatory capital framework in line with Basel II)

All scheduled banks in Bangladesh must implement the revised regulatory capital framework, Risk Based Capital Adequacy for Banks, starting in January 2009. Banks are required to use the Standardized Approach for credit and market risk and the Basic Indicator Approach for operational risk, while nominating External Credit Assessment Institutions recognized by Bangladesh Bank for credit ratings. During the 2009 parallel run period, the computation of capital adequacy under existing rules prevails for statutory compliance. Banks must submit quarterly reports in the specified formats to the Department of Offsite Supervision by the end of the month following each quarter's end.
