FRAME content on capital and liquidity regulations

FRAME records quantitative impact estimates of Basel III capital and liquidity regulations (including those affecting banks' liquidity coverage and stable funding) on more than 10 economic and financial variables (see chart). The number of records ranges from less than 10 for the effects of stable funding regulation on GDP to more than 50 for the effect of capital regulation on bank lending. The repository also includes the references and hyperlinks to the studies underlying the estimates.
