The Net Stable Funding Ratio (NSFR) is a key liquidity standard introduced under the Basel III framework. It ensures that banks maintain a stable funding profile in relation to their on- and off-balance sheet activities, promoting resilience over a longer time horizon. By requiring a minimum amount of stable funding, the NSFR reduces the risk of funding stress and promotes financial stability. Banks must maintain an NSFR of at least 100%. This measure is crucial for safeguarding against liquidity mismatches and ensuring sustainable banking operations. #Banking #Liquidity #finance

As we inch closer to Basel III endgame, investments such as asset-backed securities (ABS) and significant risk transfers (SRT) have seen an uptick in the last year as banks look to reduce risk and prepare for predicted capital requirement changes. Banks’ use of SRTs in particular is at its highest rate since the financial crisis.   The demand for ABS is being driven by the potential opportunity to generate higher yields than other forms of fixed income, while SRTs help to reduce the cost for banks on issued loans and allow for further lending opportunities. These markets will continue to be impacted by the anticipated Basel III requirements, and this bears monitoring considering the potential for planned regulation to be reconsidered.   We have deep, long-standing expertise in SRTs as Orchard Global was founded to solve complex challenges for banks. We stay apprised of market changes to help uncover opportunities for our clients and will continue seeking to offer transformational solutions to our counterparties, even amid an everchanging environment.  https://lnkd.in/ee-kUASb
