Notes
BIS Red is the identity colour of the bank. It must be dominant in all materials.
It is the intention that the colour will be highly recognisable through persistent
use on all platforms. With time the colour will be woven into the identity of
the bank, so that colour and bank will be hard to separate. It is therefore imperative
that customers always see the BIS red when they meet any of the BIS platforms:
Online sites, newsletters, publications, stationery etc.

Notes
Choosing a typeface is more than just readability. It sets the visual atmosphere and
character, much like the way our voice can set the character of our spoken words.
We use the Identity Font Family in all communications. If the BIS Identity Font Family
is not available, we may use the Alternative Font Family.

Photography
Notes
The styling of casting, location and props, can be tailored to make images feel
more or less accessible or elite.
The content of BIS photography must be carefully considered and tailored to
each audience. It must reflect key themes or ideas related to the specific piece of
communication.

Introduction
This document, together with the document Basel III: International
framework for liquidity risk measurement, standards and monitoring, presents the Basel Committees1 reforms to strengthen global capital and liquidity
rules with the goal of promoting a more resilient banking sector. The objective
of the reforms is to improve the banking sectors ability to absorb shocks arising from financial and economic stress, whatever the source, thus reducing the
risk of spillover from the financial sector to the real economy. This document
sets out the rules text and timelines to implement the Basel III framework.

3.
A strong and resilient banking system is the foundation for sustainable
economic growth, as banks are at the centre of the credit intermediation process between savers and investors. Moreover, banks provide critical services
to consumers, small and medium-sized enterprises, large corporate firms and
governments who rely on them to conduct their daily business, both at a domestic and international level.
4.
One of the main reasons the economic and financial crisis, which began
in 2007, became so severe was that the banking sectors of many countries had
built up excessive onand off-balance sheet leverage. This was accompanied by
a gradual erosion of the level and quality of the capital base. At the same time,
many banks were holding insufficient liquidity buffers. The banking system

Consistency is the adherence to the uniform use of fonts, colors, alignment, and other
design elements throughout a page layout or document.
While there may be valid reasons to forego some incidences of consistency, it should
be for a specific purpose and not just because someone forgot or wants to be different.
Further instructions are given within the specific templates.
Having the right amount of characters on each line is key to the readability of
our texts. If a line of text is too long the readers eyes will have a hard time
focusing on the text. Therefore we always keep our text within the range of
50 75 characters per line.
Further instructions are given within the specific templates.

PowerPoint Presentations
Notes
PowerPoint presentations are very important tools for us. There are different
templates to choose from for different purposes and target groups.
For presentations in collaboration with people outside the BIS network we use the
Alternative Font Family, since the BIS Identity Font Family might not be supported
outside the BIS network.

Without visualization, data is just an account of the facts, but with it, data has the
ability to inspire and transform the way we see the world around us.
Charts must always be simple and easy to decode.
Here we can see examples where the colours are BIS Primary scale.
