Abstract

Basel norms are international regulatory guidelines which have been introduced, updated and revised from time to time considering the need for more sound and stable banking system. Presently, Basel III has come into the scene in the wake of financial turmoil and inability of Basel II to address risks faced by banks. The purpose of the present study is to conduct a SWOT analysis of Basel III framework in order to find out its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and major threats. The study also performs TOWS analysis to facilitate cross-matching among strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats. The study suggested that as Basel III is a global risk management phenomenon; hence Indian banks have to accept it to achieve harmonization with international standards. Thus, banks have to devise smart alternative strategies to implement it, as its adoption will ultimately benefit soundness and profitability of banks in the long run.
