The Basel Committee consults on revisions to the Pillar 3 disclosure framework


Default: Change to:


The proposed enhancements include the addition of a "dashboard" of key metrics; a draft disclosure requirement of hypothetical risk-weighted assets calculated based on the Basel framework's standardised approaches, and enhanced granularity for disclosure of prudent valuation adjustments.


Pillar 3 of the Basel framework seeks to promote market discipline through regulatory disclosure requirements.

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision's proposal also incorporate additions to the Pillar 3 framework to reflect ongoing reforms to the regulatory framework. These include, for example, disclosure requirements for:

  • the total loss-absorbing capacity (TLAC) regime for global systemically important banks,
  • the proposed operational risk framework, and
  • the final standard for market risk.

The Committee's proposal would also consolidate all existing Pillar 3 disclosure requirements of the Basel framework, including the leverage ratio and liquidity ratios disclosure templates. Together with the Revised Pillar 3 disclosure requirements issued in January 2015, the proposed disclosure requirements included in this consultation would comprise the single Pillar 3 framework.

The Committee welcomes comments from both Pillar 3 users and preparers on the proposals described in this consultative document here by Friday 10 June 2016.
