Prudential Standard for Basel I Capital Measurement for Credit Institutions Licensed Under the Banking Act 2015
The Eastern Caribbean Central Bank issued this Prudential Standard to establish Basel I capital measurement requirements for credit institutions licensed under the Banking Act 2015. The framework mandates a minimum 8% capital adequacy ratio and a 4% Tier 1 capital ratio relative to risk-weighted assets, while defining qualifying capital components and specifying regulatory deductions for intangible assets and current losses. It further outlines risk-weighting categories for on- and off-balance sheet exposures, with revised reporting requirements taking effect on 2 February 2026.
