  Basel II Compliance
In June of 2004, The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (BCBS) endorsed the new capital accord titled “International Convergence of Capital Measurements and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework” more popularly known as Basel II. This new accord includes three mutually reinforcing pillars that work together to contribute to the safety and soundness of the financial system.
 
 
 
Pillar I


Minimum Capital Requirements - 8% of minimum capital on risk-weighted assets

 
     
 
Total Capital (Tier I & II)
Credit risk + market risk + operational risk
 
     
  Pillar II

Supervisory Review Process

The central bank of the country is required to ensure that each bank has sound internal processes in place to assess the adequacy of its capital based on a thorough evaluation of its risks.

 
     
  Pillar III

Market Discipline

The market discipline pillar aims to improve effective disclosure of a bank's risk profiles, adequacy of its capital position, etc.

Intelligroup offers a service for Basel II implementations. The Basel II research group at Intelligroup, comprised of experts from the banking Industry and SAP technology, has developed a methodology for the implementation of Basel II using SAP technology. This methodology is a result of an extensive 18-month research project on the various approaches to risk mitigation required for Basel II compliance.
