Capital requirement

Capital requirement

The amount of money a business needs for its normal operations.

It is also the amount of Cash and easily liquidated assets that a Broker/dealer or bank needs to meet SEC regulations, usually expressed as a proportion of total liabilities. In general, the kind of assets that can make up the Broker-dealer's capital requirement are strictly defined. The capital requirement is a bank regulation, which sets a framework on how banks and depository institutions must handle their capital. The categorization of assets and capital is highly standardized so that it can be Risk weighted.
