Basel III is a worldwide regulatory standard designed to enhance risk management practices across the banking sector. It requires banks to maintain specific leverage ratios and hold defined levels of reserve capital to protect against financial instability. Introduced in 2009, Basel III reforms are ongoing and have been consolidated into the Basel Framework, which includes all current and future standards from the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision.
Basel III was introduced following the 2007–2009 financial crisis to strengthen the regulation, oversight, and risk management practices of banks.  It sets minimum requirements for internationally active banks, and member jurisdictions are committed to adopting and enforcing these standards within the timelines established by the Committee.
