| Abstract: | The relationship between capital adequacy ratio and the usual market risk measures is examined. In particular, the theoretical covariance relationships between the primary capital adequacy ratio of a bank and its systematic, relative systematic, unsystematic and total risk are derived. In all cases except the unsystematic risk case a negative relationship is implied. The theoretical relationships were tested using a sample of 24 large banks. The empirical findings generally coincide with the theoretical relationships. |
