But many emerging markets are already leading by example on important issues like the need to shift global financial flows from debt toward equity. Mexico, for example, recently adopted ahead of schedule the changes in capital requirements for banks recommended by the Third Basel Accord (Basel III), in order to reduce leverage and increase stability.

Furthermore, emerging international banking capital adequacy regulations (Basel II), make the credit risks rating of potential borrowers a condition for their access to bank loans.

After the crisis, world leaders and central bankers overhauled banking regulations, first and foremost by rectifying the Basel prudential rules. Unfortunately, the new Basel III Accord and the ensuing EU Capital Requirements Directive have failed to correct the two main shortcomings of international prudential rules namely, their reliance on banks risk management models for the calculation of capital requirements, and the lack of supervisory accountability.

The G 20 has now called for revising the Basel II standards so that capital requirements become countercyclical, and Spain s experience with such requirements suggests that doing so is a step in the right direction. But such revisions of Basel II are not enough, because bank portfolios especially those of international banks with large trading books are vulnerable to the risks stemming from long swing fluctuations in asset markets.
