Letter. Worrying reduction of capital levels
Sir, At first glance it might appear embarrassing for the Financial Services Authority that it recently granted Basel II IRB waiver to Northern Rock in June 2007. The impact of this was to permit Northern Rock to increase its gearing capacity as the capital requirement under IRB is significantly less than under the standardised approach.
