Bank for International Settlements is the developer for The Basel II capital accord. The Basel II Framework tells of a more comprehensive measure and minimum standard for capital adequacy that are now being worked on by supervisory authorities to implement through domestic rule-making. Banks face some underlining risk factors and the Company seeks to improve on the rules by aligning regulatory requirements more closely and by helping the companies manage those risks.
