Market discipline<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Market discipline is the third pillar of the Basel II accord, which is a set of international banking regulations developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision. The first pillar of Basel II is minimum capital requirements, which set the minimum amount of capital that banks must hold to cover potential losses. The second pillar is the supervisory review process, which is a process by which supervisors review banks&#8217; capital adequacy and risk management practices. The third pillar is market discipline, which is a process by which market participants, such as investors and creditors, assess the risk of banks and take appropriate actions, such as demanding higher interest rates or selling their shares, if they believe that a bank is taking on too much risk.<\/p>\n<p>Market discipline is important because it can help to prevent banks from taking on too much risk. If investors and creditors believe that a bank is taking on too much risk, they may demand higher interest rates or sell their shares, which can make it more difficult for the bank to raise capital. This can help to discourage banks from taking on too much risk and can help to protect the financial system from systemic risk.<\/p>\n<p>The other options are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A. Minimum capital requirement<\/strong> is the first pillar of the Basel II accord. It sets the minimum amount of capital that banks must hold to cover potential losses.<\/li>\n<li><strong>B. Supervisory review process<\/strong> is the second pillar of the Basel II accord. It is a process by which supervisors review banks&#8217; capital adequacy and risk management practices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>C. Standard approach<\/strong> is a method of calculating capital requirements under Basel II. It is based on a bank&#8217;s risk-weighted assets.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Minimum capital requirement&#8221; option2=&#8221;Supervisory review process&#8221;
