Canadian Tire Bank's Regulatory Environment
CTB manages its capital in accordance with guidelines established by the Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions
of Canada (OSFI), which are based on the Basel III framework, developed by the international Basel Committee on
Banking Supervision. Basel III, in effect since January 1, 2013 is designed to strengthen regulation, supervision, and risk management in the
banking sector.
To comply with these regulations, CTB has implemented several capital policies, procedures, and controls. One key component of this framework is the annual Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process (ICAAP), which supports the Bank in achieving
its strategic and operational objectives.
CTB's capital management objectives include:
- maintaining adequate levels of capital to meet all applicable regulatory requirements;
- reinforcing confidence in the safety and soundness of the Bank;
- supporting growth in assets and liabilities; and
- absorbing unexpected operating and investment losses and volatility.
As at the end of Q3 2025, the Bank complied with all regulatory capital requirements
established by OSFI, and its internal targets as determined by its ICAAP.
