G-SIBs: Information regarding the end-2012 exercise published by the Basel Committee


Default: Change to:


In conjunction with the publication by the FSB of the updated list of global systemically important banks, the BCBS has published additional information regarding the G-SIB methodology.


In accordance with the timeline set out in its updated methodology for assessing and identifying G-SIBs, the Basel Committee has published:

  • the denominators that were used to calculate the scores of banks in the end-2012 exercise; and
  • the cut-off score and bucket thresholds that were used to identify the updated list of G-SIBs and to allocate them to buckets.

The information published today will enable banks that participated in the G-SIB exercise to calculate their end-2012 scores and see their positions within the buckets that, in future exercises, will determine their higher loss absorbency (HLA) requirement. The HLA requirements start to come into effect on 1 January 2016, based on end-2013 data.
