Words of wisdom: “Common Equity Tier 1 is a key part of a bank's capital structure for regulatory purposes. It includes ordinary share capital, as well as other items such as retained profits. It is regarded as the highest quality of regulatory capital as it is the most loss absorbent and subordinated to other tiers of capital.”
