The implementation of Basel II in emerging World Part.II

Implementation is necessary for local regulators to enable them:

* To learn from established and that have taken place earlier in other countries.
Indeed, in order to receive feedback from the actors in countries that have already adopted the reform, the emerging countries have established processes for discussion and exchange that lasted several years for some of them ( for example, the Moroccan regulator has consulted for 3 years before the French players to transpose the Basel standards in its regulation).
* To prepare their local regulations to the requirements of the new standards.
To be effective Basel standards require an adequate regulatory environment and thus prepared. The legislature must provide for such an expansion of the prerogatives of local regulatory authorities through the adoption of a number of laws to modernize bank.
* Adapt the Basel standards to the country context, particularly in terms of two parameters: the diversity of financial activity in this country and the level of detail and sophistication of available information.
On adaptation to local conditions, for example it is useless to try to apply the same level of sophistication of the Basel requirements for market risk (modeling) in a country where 99% of the activity is commercial banking (loans, current accounts ....).
Also, try to impose a strict segmentation of customers through the turnover (which is required in the regulations) is not always possible in some emerging markets given the low quality of available information or thresholds turnover that does not correspond to G10.
