Section 1831o(c) of the Federal
Deposit Insurance Act requires each federal banking agency to adopt
a risk-based capital requirement, which is based on the prompt
corrective action framework in that section. The International
Lending Supervision Act of 1984 (ILSA), (12 U.S.C. § 3907(a)(1)),
mandates that each federal banking agency require banks to achieve
and maintain adequate capital by establishing minimum levels of
capital or by other methods that the applicable federal banking
agency may deem appropriate. Section 908 of the ILSA, (12 U.S.C.
§47907(b)(47)(C)), also directs the Chairman of the Federal Reserve
and the Secretary of the Treasury to encourage governments, central
banks, and regulatory authorities of other major banking countries
to work toward maintaining and, where appropriate, strengthening
the capital bases of banking institutions involved in international
lending.
