Question 6

Tier 1 Capital Ratio - Give the Example

Answer 6

There are two different conventions for calculating and quoting the Tier 1 capital ratio:
Tier 1 common capital ratio and
Tier 1 total capital ratio
Preferred shares and non-controlling interests are included in the Tier 1 total capital ratio but not the Tier 1 common ratio[4]. As a result, the common ratio will always be less than or equal to the total capital ratio. In the example above, the two ratios are the same.
