Abstract

In " The History of Supervisory Expectations for Capital Adequacy Part I (1863-1983) ," we traced regulatory views on capital over the first 120 years of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) history. The maintenance of a sound system of banks requiring the oversight of skilled examiners exhibiting sound judgement continues today, as it certainly will for many years to follow.
