For **Question (b)**, we need to assess the bank's capital adequacy level if the minimum CAR should
be 8%, and then suggest ways to improve it if the current CAR is below this threshold.

### Assessing Capital Adequacy Level

From the previous calculation steps, if the **CAR** is **below 8%**, the bank is not meeting the
minimum regulatory requirement and needs to take actions to strengthen its capital base.

Recommendations to Improve Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR)

If the bank's CAR is below the required 8%, it can take the following steps:

1. Increase Tier 1 Capital


- Raise additional equity by issuing new shares. This will directly increase Tier 1 capital.
- Retain more earnings instead of distributing dividends to shareholders. Retained earnings contribute
to Tier 1 capital.

2. Reduce Risk-Weighted Assets (RWA)


- Rebalance the asset portfolio by reducing high-risk-weighted assets, such as loans, and investing
more in lower-risk assets like government securities.
- Tighten lending criteria, focusing on lower-risk clients to decrease the overall risk weighting.

3. Increase Tier 2 Capital


- Issue subordinated debt or other hybrid instruments that qualify as Tier 2 capital, thus increasing the
total capital.

4. Improve Asset Quality


- Reduce non-performing loans to lower loan loss provisions, as this would increase net income and
subsequently boost retained earnings (which contribute to Tier 1 capital).
