In the Benelux region, the Tier 1 capital ratio has consistently been higher than the ratio reached in the EU as a whole between December 2014 and September 2021. The Tier 1 capital ratio measures a bank's core equity capital divided by its total risk-weighted assets (RWA). Developed in its current form in the third Basel Accord, known as Basel III, financial institutions must maintain a ratio above a certain minimum as to ensure that they are protected against unexpected losses, such as those that occurred during the financial crisis.

Supplementary notes
The source states that "individual country data includes subsidiaries, which are excluded from EU aggregate. For example, at country level the subsidiary in country X of a bank domiciled in country Y is included both in data for countries X and Y (for the latter as part of the consolidated entity). In the EU aggregate, only the consolidated entity domiciled in country Y is considered. The sample of banks is unbalanced and reviewed annually."
