RBNZ considering raising bank capital (news hit a while ago and guess what...)

I am seeing headlines such as 'NZD falls as RBNZ considers raising bank capital requirements

The RBNZ is considering it yes. They said so about 3 hours ago

I am going to suggest that the NZD might be falling alongside the broad move in risk though and the RBNZ news is not maybe the culprit. but, whatever.

Horses mouth:

• Reserve Bank proposes that bank owners bear greater share of financial system's risks
