Structural macroprudential buffers smaller in Finland than in its most relevant peers

In Chart, the size of Norway’s structural buffers has been assessed based on buffer requirements imposed at the end of 2020. However, the new SyRB requirement of 4.5% for Norwegian credit exposures will not enter into force for some Norwegian banks until the end of 2022. In addition, when calculating the average buffer requirements, it has been assumed that, with the exception of Norwegian banks classified as systemically important, Norwegian banks only have domestic credit exposures. In practice, these assumptions somewhat overestimate the actual average buffer requirements for the Norwegian banking sector.
