G-SII buffer

Bank supervision - capital adequacy - CRD IV.

The G-SII buffer is an additional capital buffer required of Global Systemically Important Institutions (G-SIIs) under the European Union's CRD IV.

It is likely to be in the range of 0% to 3.5% of risk weighted assets (RWAs).

It is subject to a three-year phase in period from 2016 to 2019.
