Abstract

In fiscal 2001 (April 2001-March 2002), Japanese banks recorded large net losses because they disposed of nonperforming loans (NPLs) and wrote off stocks in a substantial amount. As a result, banks' capital account decreased considerably, and unrealized capital gains on securities fell close to zero with the decline in stock prices. In contrast, consolidated risk-based capital adequacy ratios of internationally active banks remained in the range of 10 to 11 percent.
