The financial crisis which developed further into an economic crisis, lead the regulators to put the capital requirements, as defined in the Basel I and Basel II accords, under the microscope. After deliberating in 2009 a new set of requirements was adopted by the Basel Committee (BIS) in July 2010. This package aims to ensure that both the quality and level of capital reserves of banks will be improved. Capital requirements for certain products increase and banks are encouraged to build additional capital buffers during good times, so that banks are better positioned to absorb the losses that occur during periods of stress. Banks that do not comply with this extra buffer, or do so insufficiently, will be limited in the way they can pay dividends or performance-related bonuses.

 
Besides a tightening of capital requirements, Basel III will also introduce a number of liquidity management standards. These relate to a stress test that will have to prove whether banks can endure one month of very bad weather. In addition, longer-term liquidity standards are introduced that deal with reducing the mismatch in maturity of assets and liabilities.
