1 The list uses end-2024 data,2 and is based on a methodology agreed upon in July 2018 and implemented for the first time in the end-2021 G-SIB assessment.3

The list for 2025 includes 29 G-SIBs, the same banks as in the 2024 list but with different allocation of the banks to buckets (see Annex). The changes in the allocation of the banks to buckets (see below for details), largely reflect the effects of changes in the underlying activity of banks, with the complexity category being the largest contributor to score movements. The higher loss absorbency requirement established with this list will be effective beginning 1 January 2027 if there is a bucket increase.4

FSB member authorities apply the following requirements to G-SIBs:
Higher capital buffer: Since the November 2012 update, the G-SIBs have been allocated to buckets corresponding to higher capital buffers that they are required to hold by national authorities in accordance with international standards.5 The capital buffer requirements for the G-SIBs identified in the annual update each November will apply to them as from January fourteen months later.6 The assignment of G-SIBs to the buckets, in the list published today, therefore determines the higher capital buffer requirements that will apply to each G-SIB from 1 January 2027.

Total Loss-Absorbing Capacity (TLAC): G-SIBs are required to meet the TLAC standard, alongside the regulatory capital requirements set out in the Basel III framework. The TLAC standard began being phased-in from 1 January 2019.7

Resolvability: These requirements include group-wide resolution planning and regular resolvability assessments. The resolvability of each G-SIB is reviewed in the FSB Resolvability Assessment Process (RAP) by senior regulators within the firms' Crisis Management Groups.8
Higher supervisory expectations: These requirements include supervisory expectations for risk management functions, risk data aggregation capabilities, risk governance and internal controls.9
The BCBS publishes the annually updated denominators used to calculate banks' scores and the thresholds used to allocate the banks to buckets and provides the links to the public disclosures of the full sample of banks assessed, as determined by the sample criteria set out in the BCBS G-SIB framework. The BCBS also publishes the thirteen high-level indicators of the banks in the assessment sample used in the G-SIB scoring exercise for 2025.10
A new list of G-SIBs will next be published in November 2026.
