Revisions to the Securitization Framework

This securitization framework, which will come into effect in January 2018, forms part of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervisions’ broader agenda related to Basel III and intended to reform regulatory standards for banks in response to the global financial crisis, thus contributing to a more resilient banking sector. This framework updates the previous securitization framework published in December 2014, along with the alternative capital treatment for “simple, transparent and comparable” (terms aka STC) securitizations.
