Harmonising Basel III and the Dodd Frank Act

This publication aims to highlight why the harmonization of two major legislative frameworks,
namely, Basel III and the Dodd Frank Act, will contribute immensely to resolving future
global as well as regional financial crises.

More specifically, the publication also aims to highlight the significance and importance of
addressing the main transmission channels of financial instability and systemic risks at
micro and macro prudential level as well as the need for consideration and redress of the
obstacles confronted by Basel III – with particular regards to the impediment imposed by
the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.
