It notes close link between the financial stability and the ability of the financial institutions to response to economic cycle. It concerns the regulatory conception Basel II as a subject of intense debate. We describe the discussions about the procyclicity of capital regulation and we suppose, every regulation based on capital buffer is procyclical.
