    • PCD-2.2.2

      Majority-owned or controlled insurance subsidiaries must be adequately capitalised to reduce the possibility of future potential losses to the parent bank. The parent bank will monitor actions taken by the subsidiary to correct any capital shortfall and, if it is not corrected in a timely manner, the shortfall will also be deducted from the parent bank's capital for regulatory capital purposes.
