Basel 2.5

Banking - capital adequacy.

Basel 2.5 was an update to Basel II, which became effective in 2011.

It increased regulatory capital requirements in relation to market trading risks and re-securitisations.

(Basel 2.5 is occasionally written as Basel II.5, but this is rare.)

Now superseded and updated by later Basel agreements, see links below.
