The impact of covid-19 on the implementation of Basel (III)‎ standards in commercial banks : case of Algeria

الملخص EN

This study aims to identify the reality of implementation of Basel (III) standards in the world in general and in Algeria in particular, in addition to identify the impact of recent developments on the timetable set by the Basel Committee for the implementation of this accord.

The results show that Basel (ΙΙΙ) standards were due to come into force in January 2022, but they will be delayed by a further year, giving a new implementation date of 1st January 2023, in order to provide banks with additional operational capacity to be able to respond to the new financial stability requirements resulting from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As of Algerian banks, they have not been affected by the new timetable because they have applied only a small part of the accord.
