With the addition of new regulations set out by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision reforms (Basel III), banks must now have a minimum common equity to 4.5% of risk weighted assets, after deductions. With the introduction of both a A capital conservation buffer and countercyclical buffer, the total common equity ratio is now seven percent as a standard. As of June 2019, HSBC's Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) available after meeting the bank’s minimum capital requirements was 8.1 percent and therefore above the new standard.
