Corrective response --[3-4] The Basle Committee on Banking Supervision's report on highly leveraged institutions (HLIs) in January 1999 suggests that supervisors demand higher capital charges for exposure to highly leveraged institutions where there is no limit to overall leverage: "Possibly all exposures to all counterparties not covered by covenants on leverage should carry a higher weight." It further considers the possibility of extending a credit register for bank loans in the context of HLIs. "The register would entail collecting, in a centralized place, information on the exposures of international financial intermediaries to single counterparties that have the potential to create systemic risk (ie major HLIs). Exposures would cover both on and off-balance-sheet positions. Counterparties, supervisors and central banks could then obtain information about the overall indebtedness of the single counterparty." risk.ifci.ch
