class="slide_2_left"> <p>Capital is the amount by which a company’s assets exceed its liabilities. For example, suppose a baker invests $600,000 into building a bakery financed with both $100,000 of their own money and a bank loan for $500,000. The bakery’s assets are worth $600,000, while its liabilities equal $500,000, <strong>leaving $100,000 in capital – the amount the baker invested.</strong></p> <p>For banks, capital is the difference between the assets of the bank (loans and securities) and the liabilities of the bank (deposits and other borrowings).</p> </div> <div class="slide_2_right"> <img src="https://stopbaselendgame.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Basel-Graphic-Design-Files-0-1.png"/> </div> </div> <div class="capital_slide slide3 scroll-snap"> <div class="slide3_top"> <div class="slide3_eyebrow">Higher Capital Affects Lending.</div> <div class="slide3_underlined"> <div><span>Too much capital has</span><div class="underline"></div></div><br> <div><span>consequences.</span><div class="underline"></div></div> </div> </div> <div class="slide3_bottom"> <p>Having a strong capital base is important because capital absorbs losses to the bank (for example, when someone doesn’t pay back a loan).</p> <p>While having a large amount of capital makes a bank safer, funding bank loans and other activities with capital (money raised by selling equity shares or retaining income) is more expensive than funding it with debt (money raised through borrowings including deposits).</p> <p>As a result, the more a bank funds itself with capital, the more it must charge for loans. In other words, the supply of bank credit for businesses and households falls.</p> </div> </div> <div class="capital_slide slide4 scroll-snap"> <div class="slide4_top"> <div class="slide4_top_left"> <div>How does the basel</div><br> <div>endgame approach</div><br> <div><span>differ from other</span><div class="underline"></div></div><br> <div><span>countries’ capital</span><div class="underline"></div></div><br> <div><span>standards?</span><div class="underline"></div></div> </div> <div class="slide4_top_right"> <p>One of the original goals for the Basel proposal was to make international standards consistent, but the U.S. is implementing standards that vary widely from its global peers.
