Description:

Basel III establishes a global regulatory framework concerning bank capital adequacy, stress testing, and liquidity risk. Initially agreed upon by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in 2010–2011, the implementation timeline for the Accord has been extended to March 31, 2019. This framework enhances bank capital requirements by improving liquidity positions and reducing leverage.
Unlike Basel I and II, Basel III mandates different reserve levels for various deposit types and borrowings, meaning it complements the earlier frameworks rather than replacing them.
