Basel Committee finalises revisions to market risk disclosure requirements and voluntary disclosure of sovereign exposures
18 November 2021
Voluntary disclosure standards for sovereign exposures set out templates for banks when disclosing their sovereign exposures and risk-weighted assets.
- Revisions to market risk disclosure requirements reflect changes to
the minimum capital requirements for market risk published in January
2019.
- The revised market risk disclosure requirements come into effect on 1 January 2023.
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has today issued revisions to its market risk disclosure requirements to reflect changes to the Minimum capital requirements for market risk published in January 2019.
The Basel Committee has also finalised standards for the voluntary disclosure of sovereign exposures.
The final standards comprise three templates covering disclosure of
sovereign exposures and risk-weighted assets by jurisdictional
breakdown; currency breakdown; and according to the accounting
classification of the exposures. The implementation of these templates
are only mandatory when required by national supervisors.
