Capital Funds:<\/span>Equity contribution of owners. The basic approach of capital adequacy framework is that a bank should have sufficient capital to provide a stable resource to absorb any losses arising from the risks in its business. Capital is divided into different tiers according to the characteristics \/ qualities of each qualifying instrument. For supervisory purposes capital is split into two categories: Tier I and Tier II.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier I Capital:<\/span> A term used to refer to one of the components of regulatory capital. It consists mainly of share capital and disclosed reserves (minus goodwill, if any). Tier I items are deemed to be of the highest quality because they are fully available to cover losses Hence it is also termed as core capital.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tier II Capital:<\/span> Refers to one of the components of regulatory capital. Also known as supplementary capital, it consists of certain reserves and certain types of subordinated debt. Tier II items qualify as regulatory capital to the extent that they can be used to absorb losses arising from a bank\u2019s activities. Tier II\u2019s capital loss absorption capacity is lower than that of Tier I capital.<\/span><\/p>\n

Revaluation reserves:<\/span> Revaluation reserves are a part of Tier-II capital. These reserves arise from revaluation of assets that are undervalued on the bank\u2019s books, typically bank premises and marketable securities. The extent to which the revaluation reserves can be relied upon as a cushion for unexpected losses depends mainly upon the level of certainty that can be placed on estimates of the market values of the relevant assets and the subsequent deterioration in values under difficult market conditions or in a forced sale.<\/span><\/p>\n

Deferred Tax Assets:<\/span> Un absorbed depreciation and carry forward of losses which can be set-off against future taxable income which is considered as timing differences result in deferred tax assets. The deferred Tax Assets are accounted as per the Accounting Standard 22.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
