2. The Significant Differences Between Basel Ⅲ and Basel Ⅱ Basel Ⅲ proposes many new capital, leverage and liquidity standards to strengthen the regulation, supervision and risk management of the banking sector. The capital standards and new capital buffers will require banks to hold more capital and higher quality of capital than under current Basel Ⅱ rules. The new leverage and liquidity ratios introduce a non-risk based measure to supplement the risk-based minimum capital requirements and measures to ensure that adequate funding is maintained in case of crisis. 1

4. Some Key Elements for The New Regulations Regulatory Element Proposed Requirement 1. Higher Minimum Tier I Capital Requirement Tier I Capital Ratio: increases from 4% to 6%. (The ratio will be set at 4.5% from 1. Jan. 2013, 5.5% from 1. Jan. 2014 and 6% from 1. Jan 2015.) Predominance of common equity will be reached 82.35% of Tier I capital inclusive of capital conservation buffer. 2. New Capital Conservation Buffer Banks will be required to hold a capital conservation buffer of 2.5% to withstand future periods of stress bringing the total common equity requirement to 7%. (4.5% common equity requirement and the 2.5% capital conservation buffer) Banks that do not maintain the capital conservation buffer will face restrictions on payouts of dividends, share buybacks and bonuses. 3. Countercyclical Capital Buffer A countercyclical buffer within a range of 0% ~ 2.5% of common equity or other fully loss absorbing capital will be implemented according to national circumstances. When in affect, this is an extension to the conservation buffer. Source: Bank for International Settlements, Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. 3

5. Regulatory Element Proposed Requirement 4. Higher Minimum Tier I Common Equity Requirement Tier I Common Equity Requirement increase from 2% to 4.5% (The Ratio will be set at 3.5% from 1. Jan. 2013, 4% from 1. Jan. 2014 and 4.5% from 1. Jan. 2015.) 5. Liquidity Standard Liquidity Coverage Ratio: to ensure that sufficient high quality liquid resources are available for one month survival in case of a stress scenario introduced 1. Jan. 2015. Net Stable Funding Ratio: to promote resiliency over longer- term time horizons by creating additional incentives for banks to fund their activities with more stable sources of funding on an ongoing structural basis. Additional liquidity monitoring metrics focused on maturity mismatch concentration of funding and available unencumbered assets.

6. Regulatory ElementProposed Requirement 6. Leverage Ratio A supplemental 3% non-risk based leverage ratio which serves as a backstop to the measures outlined above. (Parallel run between 2013 ~ 2017; migration to Pillar I from 1. Jan. 2018.) 7. Minimum Total Capital Ratio Remains at 8%. The additional of the capital conservation buffer increases the total amount of capital a bank must hold to 10.5% of risk-weighted assets, of which 8.5% must be Tier I capital. Tier Ⅱ capital instruments will be harmonized, Tier Ⅲ capital will be phased out. Source: Bank for International Settlements, Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. 5
