Implementation of Basel III: Impact on the Behaviour of the Banking Sector
Kreidl, Jan ; Rippel, Milan (advisor) ; Doležel, Pavel (referee)
This thesis focuses on consequences of the full implementation of Basel III regulations and what impact it will have on the banking sector. The purpose of Basel III is to replace Basel II as a global regulatory standard, because of its predecessor's flaws, such as the amplifying of banks' procyclicality, overreliance on credit rating agencies or the incentive to securitize its assets. The examination of Basel III regulations has shown that the most difficult task for banks would be to raise the capital for increased requirements and implementation of liquidity ratios. This will undoubtedly change the behaviour of banks. Using the panel data model, we will analyze the relationship between the changes in regulatory capital and our dependent variables, which consist of change in interest rates, change in the amount of loans granted and the change of stability of a bank, in countries from the Visegrad Four, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary. Using estimated coefficients from our regression, we examine whether there will be unintended negative effects of Basel III implementation and whether there will be an increase in a stability of banks.

Nádvorník, Petr ; Kotáb, Petr (advisor) ; Dřevínek, Karel (referee)
xi Abstract This thesis aims to provide eclectic legal and economic insight into the history, current principles and possible future development of bank capital adequacy regulation. We have worked with a variety of legal and economic literature and official Basel Committee publications. Our goal was to explore the economic background behind the Basel standards and find its legal ramifications and the incentives they create. In the first chapter, we analyze the economic rationale for banking regulation, explain possible methods of bank capital regulation and juxtapose them with other means of regulatory measures in the field of banking. The first chapter also gives overview of the Basel I framework, its implementation process, describes its utilization of new regulatory techniques, as well as its weaknesses. Second chapter provides overview of Basel II approval process and discusses its transparency and institutionary framework. Problematic issues of CRD directive in the Czech Republic are discussed in contrast with norms of due legislation process. In the next chapter, we describe the mechanics of the Basel II framework. In greater detail, we focus on the issues of securitization, off-balance sheet exposures and methods of "promise-shifting" in the financial system. Examples are used to illustrate the...

Capital Adequacy of Commercial Banks The purpose of the thesis is to analyse particular capital adequacy issues. The thesis is composed of three chapters, each dealing with particular aspects of capital adequacy. The introductory Chapter One clarifies the meaning of capital adequacy. The thesis is based on two main aims. Chapter Two examines Basel Committee of Banking Supervision materials and following relevant EU and Czech legislation. The methodology used in this chapter vests in comparative analysis and legal analysis of current Czech national legislation. The first aim is to tackle the legal issues of implementation and effective enforcement of current capital adequacy rules, with concentration on the key problem of inconsistency of implementation among countries. The Chapter Three describes the reasons for adoption of new regulatory rules of capital adequacy in connection with recent turbulent changes in financial markets. To make a conclusion whether Basel III is a sufficient reaction is the second main aim. It focuses on analyse of the Basel III rules as a set with some practical notes on ongoing implementation in the world or in the Czech Republic in particular.

Procyclicality in Basel II and Basel III
Šobotníková, Petra ; Teplý, Petr (advisor) ; Jakubík, Petr (referee)
The term procyclicality refers to the ability of a system to amplify business cycles. The recent financial crisis has revealed that the current regulatory framework, Basel II, affects the business cycle in exactly that manner. The newly published Basel III therefore sought to include tools that would mitigate the procyclical nature of regulatory framework. The aim of the thesis is to analyze whether such tools are effective and whether the procyclicality under Basel III has been mitigated when compared to Basel II. In order to conduct such analysis we employ a simple model with the households and firms sector. Using the OLS estimation method we estimate the sensitivity of Basel risk weights to the business cycle under both Basel II and Basel III conditions. As the Basel III framework has been published only recently, there are few studies that would analyze its effect on procyclicality. The main contribution of this thesis consists of implementation of Basel III countercyclical tools and the comparison between both frameworks. The thesis further contributes to the existing literature by conducting the analysis on the data for the Visegrád Group, that is for the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary and Poland.

Analysis of the Basel III banking regulations and their impacts on the Czech banking sector
Waclavek, Rostislav ; Šimíček, Petr (advisor) ; Doležal, Ondřej (referee)
The aim of this thesis is to perform analysis of the state of preparedness of the banking sector in the Czech Republic for the requirements of the new Basel III regulatory measures and to assess which consequences change in the field of regulatory rules could mean for the banking sector in the Czech Republic and for the Czech economy. The main changes which the Basel III regulatory framework has brought with it are examined, this specifically concerning change in the field of capital requirements and introduction of liquidity checks on banks via two new indicators, these being LCR and NSFR. Attention is also paid to introduction of the leverage ratio indicator which is supposed to limit excessive indebtedness on the part of banks. The thesis also concentrates on the indirect consequences of change in the regulatory rules. The Czech Republic is a small open economy which is strongly dependent on economic development abroad, in particular in the countries of the European Union, so the indirect consequences could be relatively significant. A certain influence could also be represented by ownership of several key banks in the Czech Republic by their foreign controlling companies. In terms of this thesis, the issue of bank regulation is also resolved on a general level, whereas the issue of the relationship between liquidity, risk and profitability in the banking sector is also outlined here.
