Abstract: In this article, the authors briefly outlined the evolution of the regulatory framework provided by the standards developed by the Basel Committee. These regulations / norms were created and approved by the Basel Committee for Banking Supervision (BCSB), which was set up in 1974 and operates within the Bank of International Settlements (BIS). These institutions are based in Switzerland, Basel, from which derives the generic name of its regulations. BCSB’s goal is to synthesize the experience gained in banking, to understand the key factors governing this activity, and to spread good practice rules to reduce the risks associated with financial-banking activities and improve the efficiency of banking supervision. The Committee provides a common and coherent framework in which banking supervision elements are analyzed and addressed and, through the exchange of information, approaches and publications, expresses its view on the promotion of banking supervision standards, which are ultimately part of a common vision, the purpose of preventing significant crises or, at least, limiting their effects.
