Terms used in these Regulations are defined as follows: 1.The term “ratio of equity capital to risk assets” (hereinafter referred to as the “capital adequacy ratio”) shall mean eligible equity capital divided by total risk assets. 2.The term “eligible equity capital” shall mean the sum of Tier 1 capital and eligible Tier 2 capital. 3.The term “eligible Tier 2 capital” shall mean such Tier 2 capital that may be used to cover credit risk, market risk and operational risk. 4.The term “capital stock” shall mean the daily average of total capital stock in the past half year, the daily average of total capital stock in the past month, or total capital stock on the base date of reporting, whichever is lower. 5.The term “total risk assets” shall mean the sum of risk-weighted assets for credit risk and capital requirements for market risk and operational risk multiplied by 12.5. However, those already deducted from eligible equity capital shall not be counted into the total risk assets. 6.The term “risk-weighted assets for credit risk” shall mean an assessment of risk of loss arising from counterparty’s default for a credit cooperative. This risk assessment is expressed as the total of the credit cooperator’s transaction items on and off the balance sheet multiplied by a risk weight. 7.The term “capital requirement for market risk” shall mean the capital required for assessed losses to the credit cooperative’s transaction items on and off the balance sheet according to market price (interest rates, exchange rates, and stock prices etc.) fluctuations. 8.The term “capital requirement for operational risk” shall mean the capital required for the risk of loss arising from inadequate or failed internal processes, personnel or systems of the credit cooperative or external events.
