Abstract: Abstract Chapter 4 analyzes the evolution of the Basel Capital Accord, providing a comparative review of Basel I, Basel II, and Basel III; their achievements over the years; the main areas of change; and the reasons for the upgrade to the new version. Chapter 4 also examines the level of regulatory convergence with Basel II and Basel III in 100 countries worldwide, focusing on Eastern European countries and other nonmembers of BCBS. The latest one is Basel IV, which is also briefly addressed in the last section of this chapter, devoted to the balancing of risk and financial stability. However, its worldwide acceptance is still uneven.
