Capital adequacy

The aggregate capital ratios of significant institutions (banks supervised directly by the ECB) were down quarter on quarter in the third quarter of 2024 but up from one year ago. The aggregate Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio stood at 15.72%, the aggregate Tier 1 ratio stood at 17.15% and the aggregate total capital ratio stood at 19.81%. The quarterly development was driven by the €161.29 billion increase in total risk exposure (denominator). This outweighed the growth of the capital amounts (numerators), up €20.61 billion on average from the previous quarter. The CET1 ratio ranged from 12.82% in Spain to 22.76% in Latvia in the third quarter of 2024.
