Think-tanks such as the World Pensions Council have argued that European powers such as France and Germany pushed dogmatically and naively for the adoption of the Basel II recommendations, adopted in 2005, transposed in European Union law through the Capital Requirements Directive (CRD).

112-947: The 1988 Basel Accord, is primarily focused on credit risk and appropriate risk-weighting of assets . Assets of banks were classified and grouped in five categories according to credit risk, carrying risk weights of 0% (for example cash, bullion , home country debt like Treasuries), 20% (securitisations such as mortgage-backed securities (MBS) with the highest AAA rating ), 50% (municipal revenue bonds, residential mortgages), 100% (for example, most corporate debt), and some assets given no rating. Banks with an international presence are required to hold capital equal to 8% of their risk-weighted assets (RWA). The tier 1 capital ratio = tier 1 capital / all RWA The total capital ratio = (tier 1 + tier 2 capital) / all RWA Leverage ratio = total capital/average total assets Banks are also required to report off-balance-sheet items such as letters of credit, unused commitments, and derivatives. These all factor into
