ABSTRACT
Why this book and for whom? If your position involves any responsibility for keeping your company supplied with funds from banks and other sources, this book is for you, because Basel II vitally determines your chances of success. The book tells you how to discharge that responsibility under the changed conditions. In particular, it addresses this problem:
Brought down to practical terms, Basel II means that your key to bank finance, whether in the form of debt or equity investment, will be a risk rating of your business. But Basel II does not spell out the criteria you have to meet in order to pass that test or optimise its result.
