This move aims to encourage lending and ensure financial markets function smoothly during crises, representing the latest step in relaxing post-2008 financial crisis restrictions. While some officials expressed concerns about increased financial system risk, the committee believes this change will reduce the overall leverage ratio for UK banks by approximately 0.2 percentage points.
