Bank Capital: How Much is Enough?

The 2008 global financial crisis exposed the vulnerability of banks that do not hold enough capital. The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has since revised capital requirements for banks. In this podcast, we ask IMF economist Lev Ratnovski, how much capital banks need to hold to avert another crisis. Contributors: Lev Ratnovski, Senior Economist in the IMF's Research Department.
