    • CA-B.1.6

      This paper examines off-balance-sheet risks from three angles: market/position risk, credit risk and operational/control risk. Part III of this paper examines credit risk (including control of large exposures, settlement risk and country risk), with particular emphasis given to the assessment of the relative risks of the different types of off-balance-sheet activity.
