Basel Committee says most members will apply Basel III by April 2027

The Basel Committee's latest progress update tracks how its 27 member jurisdictions are implementing the post-2017 Basel III reforms, originally due to take effect in 2023. This briefing covers the published status as of end-September 2026 and the compliance deadline most members have now set.

  • Three quarters of the Basel Committee's 27 member jurisdictions have published rules adopting the full Basel III standards as of 30 September 2026.
  • The revised credit risk and operational risk standards, along with the output floor, are already effective in around 85% of member jurisdictions.
  • Almost all member jurisdictions have publicly announced that banks must apply Basel III by April 2027 or earlier.
  • The standards cover the final Basel III elements published in December 2017 and the finalised minimum capital requirements for market risk from January 2019, with an original implementation date of 1 January 2023 set by the GHOS in March 2020.
  • The GHOS met on 9 March 2026, welcomed implementation progress and reaffirmed its expectation of full and consistent implementation, tasking the Committee with continued monitoring.

Fed to restructure bank supervision into five regions, scrap committee layers

Federal Reserve Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman set out plans to overhaul the Fed's bank supervisory structure, replacing a committee-heavy system with five accountable regions aligned to state boundaries. The speech also covers pending CAMELS rating revisions, Regulation O changes and asset threshold indexing. Compliance teams at supervised banks should track the regional realignment and CAMELS changes for direct effects on examination contacts and ratings methodology.

  • The Federal Reserve will realign its supervisory function into five regions based on state boundaries rather than existing Reserve Bank districts.
  • Each region will have a single regional leader accountable for all supervisory activity, with examiners remaining in current Reserve Bank locations.
  • The FFIEC is finalizing CAMELS rating revisions so the Management ('M') rating no longer singularly drives the composite rating.
  • In July 2026 the Board proposed revisions to Regulation O, which has not been comprehensively updated since 1979.
  • Later this year the Board will consider updates to fixed-dollar asset thresholds, with a mechanism to adjust them every five years, and broader changes to the large bank tailoring framework.

BIS working paper links oil discoveries to inflation under fixed exchange rates

This BIS Working Paper (No. 1389) examines whether news of future income, specifically large oil and gas discoveries, moves current inflation before any extraction begins. It matters to macro policy teams because it identifies exchange rate flexibility as the variable that determines whether such news shocks become domestic inflation.

  • The dataset covers 1,309 large oil and gas discoveries across 79 economies from 1980 to 2019.
  • The study restricts its sample to discoveries with realised production lags of at least five years to isolate anticipation effects.
  • About half of the total increase in core consumer prices occurs before extraction begins.
  • Inflation rises mainly under inflexible exchange rate regimes but is largely absent under flexible regimes.
  • The current account initially worsens as domestic demand increases, then turns to surplus once new oil production begins.

CPMI and IOSCO finalise guidance on FMI general business risk and losses

CPMI and IOSCO have published final guidance supplementing the Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures, addressing how FMIs should identify and fund against general business losses. The report follows a 2025 consultation and a Level 3 assessment that found gaps in how FMIs apply Principle 15. Relevant for FMI boards, risk officers and resolution authorities overseeing recovery and wind-down planning.

  • CPMI and IOSCO published a final report on FMIs' management of general business risks and general business losses on 14 October 2026.
  • The report provides supplemental guidance to the CPMI-IOSCO Principles for Financial Market Infrastructures covering identification, monitoring and governance of general business risk.
  • It sets guidance on determining the minimum amount of liquid net assets funded by equity that FMIs should hold against potential general business losses.
  • The final report builds on a consultative report on general business losses published in November 2025.
  • It incorporates findings from a Level 3 assessment report on implementation of PFMI Principle 15, which identified issues in FMIs' management of general business risk and their liquid net assets funded by equity.

Fed's Bowman says BCBS and FSB echoed flawed reports on SVB failure

Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman uses a Bangkok speech to detail findings from an independent review of Silicon Valley Bank's 2023 collapse, arguing supervisory failures stemmed from unclear accountability rather than social media or regulatory tailoring, and criticising the BCBS and FSB for relying on earlier, incomplete reports.

  • The independent review found supervisors knew about SVB's exposure to interest rate and liquidity risk at least nine months before the FDIC took the bank into receivership.
  • SVB had 54 matters requiring attention or immediate attention between 2019 and its failure, and none required the bank to address its core financial risks.
  • The review found the BCBS and FSB took language nearly verbatim from earlier US reports that were not based on complete or accurate information.
  • The Fed is considering changes including clearer decision rights for examiners, direct escalation channels to senior supervision leadership, and more direct allocation of authority between the Board and Reserve Bank staff.
  • The Board published a Statement of Supervisory Operating Principles in fall 2025 and has since refined it to incorporate lessons from the independent review.

BIS paper estimates Iran conflict could add 1.5-2 points to inflation through 2027

A BIS working paper by Ricardo Reis assesses how the Iran conflict's disruption to oil, gas and fertiliser supplies could move inflation in the euro area, UK and US. It models four transmission channels and offers central banks an early read on whether to tolerate the shock or tighten policy against it.

  • The paper estimates the Iran conflict could raise inflation by about 1.5-2 percentage points in total during 2026 and 2027.
  • A further 0.3-0.4 percentage points could come from higher inflation expectations feeding into spending and wages.
  • Financial market data as of May 2026 show long-term inflation expectations remain broadly stable, indicating the inflation target's credibility has not eroded.
  • The evidence on how fiscal policy responses to the shock will affect inflation is described as unclear.
  • The paper concludes the inflation effect will be significant and may last into 2027 but smaller and shorter-lived than the 2021-24 inflation surge.

ECB to downgrade lowest-severity supervisory findings to mere observations

ECB Vice-Chair Frank Elderson outlines how banking supervision is tiering its follow-up on supervisory findings by severity, reducing documentation burdens for low-risk issues while sharpening escalation for high-severity weaknesses. The speech explains a refocusing exercise launched in mid-October that will reassess the accumulated stock of findings and measures across significant banks.

  • By the end of 2025 the stock of outstanding measures across significant banks had risen to around 12,000, averaging about 100 per bank.
  • In 2025 the ECB closed 1,200 more supervisory measures than it created, and the stock fell by a further 600 in 2026.
  • From mid-October 2026 a refocusing exercise will review the accumulated stock of findings and tailor engagement to severity, prudential relevance, remediation status and time elapsed.
  • The least severe findings, categorised F1, will in future be communicated as supervisory observations rather than generating formal measures.
  • Mandatory verification of remediation by internal audit or internal validation will be removed for low-severity (F1 or F2) findings related to internal models.

Basel Committee finalises G-SIB window-dressing fix, moves scoring to annual averages by 2030

The Basel Committee has closed off a long-standing tactic in which banks shrink their reported systemic footprint around G-SIB reference dates. Final amendments switch indicator calculation to annual averages, the threshold for who must report rises, and a parallel consultation reopens the question of how European Banking Union cross-border exposures are treated. Anyone running G-SIB reporting should read the implementation dates closely.

  • Banks must calculate all stock G-SIB indicators on an average of values over the reporting year rather than year-end values, implemented by 1 January 2030.
  • The G-SIB reporting and disclosure threshold rises from EUR 200 billion to EUR 350 billion in leverage ratio exposure measure, effective from 2027.
  • The Committee is consulting on whether to incorporate the treatment of cross-border exposures within the European Banking Union into the G-SIB methodology.
  • Comments on the consultation must be submitted by 14 January 2027.
