ICAAP (Internal Capital Adequacy Assessment Process)
One of the key principles of risk management for financial institutions, both from a regulatory and from an economic point of view, is that any bank must, at all times, have sufficient capital in relation to the risks it is facing. This notion has been formalised, e.g. in the ECB's ICAAP guidelines as well as in the CSSF's circular 20/753.
