This gives a consolidated own fund ratio (ratio of own funds to the assessment basis) of 10.7% compared to<br />

Investkredit is preparing for the New Basel Capital Accord (“Basel II”). The aim in future is for the level of equity<br />

required to back credit risk to be based on an internal rating approach. For this, it is necessary to categorise loans<br />

> under portfolio categories<br />

> under external and internal ratings – as they have been since 1999<br />

> under probability of default (PD) and<br />

> under loss given default (LGD)<br />

In future, equity will also have to be available to cover operational risk. Overall, the requirement for own funds at<br />

Investkredit should be about the same as it is today.<br />
