Отмечено, что риски потерь, в том числе неожидаемых, которые в соответствии с ней должен покрывать капитал, нельзя оценить с приемлемой точностью. Рассматривается режим параллельного использования чувствительного и нечувствительного к риску подходов в регулировании капитала (Базель III). Сделан вывод, что при таком режиме у чувствительного подхода нет самостоятельной полезной функции. Изучен вопрос об использовании чувствительного подхода как инструмента макропруденциальной политики, приведены аргументы в пользу его недостаточной эффективности. Проведен анализ академического исследования, в котором рекомендовано применять чувствительный к риску подход, если риск банковских активов можно измерить достаточно точно. Показано, что это исследование строится на имплицитном предположении об отсутствии в деятельности банков феномена неожидаемых потерь, что нереалистично и делает исследование, по сути, беспредметным. Сделан вывод, что чувствительный к риску подход не имеет содержательных оснований и его использование для регулирования достаточности капитала нецелесообразно. В микрорегулировании предлагается опираться на простой леверидж, способный обеспечить приемлемый баланс чувствительности к риску несостоятельности, простоты и сопоставимости.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article studies the foundations of the risk-sensitivity concept of regulatory banking capital. The author states that risk of losses, including unexpected ones covered in accordance with the concept by banking capital cannot be measured with satisfactory accuracy. This is the principal obstacle to the concept implementation. The efficacy of Basel III capital regime with parallel use of risk-sensitive and risk-insensitive approaches is under scrutiny. Rationales are adduced that under this regime risk-sensitive approach has no real value. The study of risk-sensitive approach abilities among macro-prudential tools leads to the conclusion that its efficiency is apparently insufficient. The analysis of the academic study on the issue is carried out. This research recommends to impose risk-sensitive capital requirements if the risk of bank assets can be measured quite accurately. It is shown that the study is based on the implicit assumption of the absence of unexpected losses phenomenon in banking activity. This assumption is unrealistic and makes research in effect objectless. The major inference from the study is that the regulatory capital risk-sensitivity concept is not well-founded and its use for capital adequacy regulation is inadvisable. For micro-prudential purposes the simple leverage deems more expedient. It is capable to ensure for capital regulation the reasonable balance of risk-sensitivity to failure, simplicity and comparability.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>регулирование капитала</kwd><kwd>чувствительность к риску</kwd><kwd>неожидаемые потери</kwd><kwd>микрои макропруденциальная политика</kwd><kwd>управление рисками</kwd><kwd>интуитивное принятие решений</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>capital regulation</kwd><kwd>risk-sensitivity</kwd><kwd>unexpected losses</kwd><kwd>microand macroprudential policy</kwd><kwd>risk management</kwd><kwd>intuitive decision making</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Симановский А.
