The key points of the implementation in PRC Part.II

Pressed for time; many institutions, even of large size, so consider the use of market solutions. However, uncertainties remain to be addressed regarding the maturity of the editors on this subject, including the ability to manage solutions in standard multiple levels of consolidation within international institutions. Nevertheless, difficulties in producing reliable and comprehensive reports on time are perhaps to be expected.

Reporting related to the Cooke ratio was traditionally produced and controlled by the Finance Department. However, since the implementation of Basel II and McDonough, new entities are involved in solvency calculations which are at the heart of the PRC.

This is the case of Risk Department, which focused knowledge of the risk-weighted assets for credit risk and operational risk (part of the calculation of McDonough). But it is also the case for Directions marketing, which often position themselves as providers of the data used for scoring Basel counterparts (also conditions the new ratio, for institutions using the "IRB").

It is therefore necessary to define now the control process and clarify the appropriate "service agreements" between the various entities. Indeed, the solvency ratio is at the heart of communication facilities and must follow a control circuit, validation, monitoring and operation, prior to its release or its internal operational use. In addition, aspects related to training will not be negligible in the success of the PRC, each actor in the "production line" to control the origin and impact of data it processes.

Therefore, the use of XBRL (data interchange format for technical interoperability) does not appear to be at the heart of the concerns of the banks. After all, it is only a computer translation of functional data model. This language is, moreover, already common in some international companies for internal reporting...
