lower than that calculated according to Basel I (10.87%) at the end of 2006. The Tier 1

ratio declined by 2.02%, from 9.88% to 7.86%. This decrease occurred primarily because

certain items in the Tier 1 ratio calculated using Basel I should have been deducted

according to entity capital; the capital of financial industry investment was subtracted; the

capital needs for operational risks were increased; and capital was deducted because of

insufficient provisions for predicted loss. However, these ratios rose when the profits

increased and because banks with deficient systems introduced foreign capital. The

average capital adequacy ratio for the end of 2007 was 10.88%, which is slightly higher

than that for the end of 2006 (10.87%). The Tier 1 ratio for the end of 2007 accounted for

8.59% of risk assets, which is 9.88% lower than that for the end of 2006. The main cause

for these changes is that several Tier 1 capital deduction items were added to Basel II.

When the unamortized deferred asset amount of on-sale nonperforming assets is deducted

from entity capital, the capital adequacy ratio at the end of 2007 is 10.65%, which is

slightly higher than that for the end of 2006 (10.06%). These changes occurred primarily

because of the substantial decrease in the unamortized amount. The empirical studies in

Asia shows that banks will decrease foreign investment in Japan, Taiwan or Korea to

minimize risks during the economic crisis (Chen, 2015).

Risk management involves maximizing positive risks, minimizing negative risks, and

maintaining uncertainties at an acceptable level (Simons, 1999). When the overall risk

management policies for financial holdings are considered, the benefits and costs of

subsidiary corporations must be defined clearly. FHCs increase the complexity of

organizational structures through capital reuse. This complicates the tasks of financial

supervision authorities. Compared with Basel I, Basel II, which was implemented at the

end of 2006, emphasizes the internal risk management of financial institutions. Basel II

was implemented to involve all market participants in the supervision of market risks by

relying on the supervision of financial supervisory authorities and the disclosure of

various types of information. Accordingly, market disciplines can be implemented.

Hellmann, Murdock, and Stiglitz (2000) as well as Matutes and Vives (2000) have argued

that, in a competitive economic system, the supervision of capital (e.g., controlling the

deposit rate and deposit premium or limiting assets) can be increased for reducing risks

effectively.

Laeven and Levine (2009) observed that, after the implementation of Basel II,

official supervision improved bank governance and facilitated competition. However, an

increase in competition also raises the risk behaviors of managers. Rigorous and
