1 Basel III: Post-Crisis ReformsStandardised Approach for Credit RiskRevisions to the Existing Standardised ApproachNew Categories of Exposures Exposures to Banks Bankexposureswillberisk-weightedbasedone ithertheExternalCreditRiskAssessmentAppr oach(ECRA)orStandardisedCreditRiskAssess mentApproach(SCRA).BanksaretoapplyECRA whereregulatorsdoallowtheuseofexternalra tingsforregulatorypurposesandSCRA forregulatorsthatdon t. Exposures to Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs)For exposures that do not fulfil the eligibility criteria, risk weights are to be determined by either SCRA or ECRA. Exposures to CorporatesA more granular look-up table as well as a specific risk weight for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have been developed.

Exposures to Subordinated Debts and Equity A more granular risk weight treatment applies relative to the current flat risk weight. Exposures to Off-Balance Sheet Items CreditConversionFactors(CCFs)havebeenmad emorerisk-sensitivesuchasintroducingposi tiveCCFsforUnconditionallyCancellableCom mitments(UCCs). Exposure to Covered Bonds Rated covered bonds will be risk weighted based on issue specific rating while risk weights for unrated covered bonds will be inferred from the issuer s ECRA or SCRA risk weights.
3 Exposure to Project Finance, Object and Commodities Finance A new standalone treatment for specialised lending, a subcategory of the corporate exposure class. Land acquisition, development and construction (ADC) exposuresNew treatment for ADC financing, a subcategory of the real estate exposure class.
