Basel II

Embracing advanced Basel II approaches and capital management practices

While some countries in Asia-Pacific and Japan were initially content with implementing basic and standardised approaches to Basel II, the trend towards more complex approaches to credit risk and market risk management have evolved as the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has continued to enhance its guidance for more sophisticated approaches to managing market, credit, and operational risk.

As the global influence of banks has shifted away from North America and Europe, leading banks in China and developed markets in Southeast Asia are well into their preparation for adopting the Internal Model Approach (IMA) to Market Risk, the Advanced Measurement Approach (AMA) to Operational Risk, and the Internal Ratings Based (IRB, AIRB).

The FRSGlobal solution provides a sophisticated Basel II module with the ability to calculate the capital charge for market and credit risk as required under Pillar 1. For Pillar 2, interest rate risk in the banking book, liquidity risk and concentration risk are covered. DataFoundation enables the reporting requirements set out in Pillar 3. The Basel II compliance can be used as an independent stand alone solution or in combination with all the other FRSGlobal RiskPro and RegPro modules.
