Technical Standards for the Application of the Capital Requirement for Financial Entities

Banks, foreign bank branches, and specific state-owned entities in El Salvador must maintain a 12% equity-to-weighted-assets ratio, or 14.5% for the first three years of operation. Banks exceeding 75% of equity in foreign credits must meet minimum capital coefficients by risk band, while all subjects must keep equity at least 7% of total liabilities and meet minimum subscribed capital. Monthly equity positions and weekly capital calculations must be reported to the Superintendency using Annexes 1 and 2, with monthly reports due by the fifth business day (tenth for June/December) and weekly reports by the second business day. Non-compliance is sanctioned under the Law on Supervision and Regulation of the Financial System.
