Abstract
⺠This paper studies the maximum leverage ratio rule for capital adequacy. ⺠We derive the leverage ratio consistent with an alpha probability of insolvency. ⺠We show that leverage ratio and a value-at-risk rules control for the same risks. ⺠We argue that leverage ratio rules are intuitive and easy to compare across firms.
