Common Equity Tier 1 capital financial
"(3) Common Equity Tier 1 capital ratio (6) / (7)"
Core capital a bank holds consisting mainly of common shares and retained profits that can absorb losses without forcing the bank to sell assets or seek emergency help; items that can’t reliably cover losses are excluded. Think of it as the bank’s shock-absorbing cushion: a higher common equity tier 1 (CET1) level and ratio means regulators and investors view the bank as better able to survive bad loans or market shocks, so it signals lower risk to shareholders and creditors.
risk weighted assets financial
"(7) Risk weighted assets"
Risk weighted assets (RWA) are a way banks and regulators treat different assets as if they carry different levels of risk, assigning each asset a weight based on how likely it is to lose value. Investors use RWA to judge how much capital a bank must keep on hand to absorb losses; higher RWA means the lender needs more capital and may have less room to lend or return money to shareholders. Think of it as packing fragile and sturdy items differently when calculating how much protective padding you need.
