View source for Basel I

The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision published in 1988 a set of minimum capital requirements for financial institutions to minimise credit risk. 

It was enforced by law in the G10 countries in 1992. 

Also known as the 1988 Basel Accord.

Now superseded and updated by [[Basel II]] and [[Basel III]].
