Abstract

Governments, central bankers, and regulators have a most pressing concern: how can they restore confidence and stability in the global financial system?

But there hasn't been adequate analysis of Basel 2's implications, warns the author of this article.

The question for companies is: what actions should you take now if your bank faces the new Basel 2 capital requirements? © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
