Consolidated guidelines and sound practices
This version
The Basel Committee on Banking supervision has launched a new section of its website that sets out a consolidated version of its guidelines and sound practices for banks and supervisors. The consolidated guidelines and sound practices aim to improve the accessibility of the Committee's outputs in a user-friendly format. The website has been published, initially in draft form, together with a consultative document to gather feedback from stakeholders.
Guidelines and sound practices are currently published on the Committee's section of the Bank for International Settlements (BIS) website, as a series of pdf documents. The new website reorganises the contents of existing guidelines and sound practices into a modular format.
The Committee welcomes comments from a broad range of interested stakeholders on the three questions set out in the consultative document. Comments should be uploaded here by Friday 26 June 2026. All comments will be published on the Bank for International Settlements website unless a respondent specifically requests confidential treatment.
