Supervisory Policy Manual CA-B-3: Countercyclical Capital Buffer Geographic Allocation of Private Sector Credit Exposures

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority issued Supervisory Policy Manual CA-B-3 to establish guidelines for the geographic allocation of private sector credit exposures under the Countercyclical Capital Buffer framework. This policy requires locally incorporated authorized institutions to apply specific capital buffer ratios based on the jurisdictional location of their credit exposures. The document serves as a regulatory standard to ensure consistent application of countercyclical capital requirements across different geographic regions.
