Risk-Based Capital

In July 2013, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the FDIC approved the Basel III regulatory capital framework and related Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act changes. The rules revise minimum capital requirements and adjust prompt corrective action thresholds. The rules also revise the regulatory capital elements, add a new common equity Tier I capital ratio, and increase the minimum Tier I capital ratio requirement. The revisions permit banking organizations to retain, through a one-time election, the existing treatment for accumulated other comprehensive income. Basel III rules, including certain transitional provisions, became effective January 1, 2015, and its requirements are included in the capital ratios presented in the table shown below.

In addition, a new capital conservation buffer of 2.5% began to be phased in effective January 1, 2016 through January 1, 2019, and must be met to avoid limitations on the ability of the Bank to pay dividends, repurchase shares or pay discretionary bonuses. In January 2016, the new capital conservation buffer requirement was 0.625% of risk-weighted assets and will increase each year until fully implemented in January 2019.
