Abstract :
The introduction of new capital requirement by the Basel committee has positive and
negative impacts on banking stock prices. Previous studies on Basel Accord’s minimum
capital requirement on various countries have shown mixed results in the stock returns
during the announcement date. This paper examines the impact of Basel III announcements
on Malaysian banking stocks’ returns. Findings showed that investors viewed the
implementation of new regulation as bad information and would reduce the banks stock
prices.
