TREAS/OTS RIN: 1550-AC19 Publication ID: Spring 2009 
Title: Risk-Based Capital Guidelines; Capital Adequacy Guidelines; Capital Maintenance; Standardized Risk-Based Capital Rules 
Abstract: In a joint NPR with the other banking agencies, OTS proposed a new risk-based capital framework (standardized framework) based on the standardized approach for credit risk and the basic indicator approach for operational risk described in the capital adequacy framework titled "International Convergence of Capital Measurement and Capital Standards: A Revised Framework" (New Accord) released by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The standardized framework would be available, on an optional basis, to a savings association that currently applies the general risk-based capital rules. However, it would not be available to a savings association that is required to use the advanced capital adequacy framework contained in the Basel II Final Rule. 72 FR 69288 (Dec. 7, 2007).
