N2  -  This research is motivated by regulatory debates on the viability of capital  conservation buffer (CCB), regulatory leverage (RLEV), and accounting leverage  (FLEV) in predicting bank risk, which, in turn, would improve the accuracy of  predicting bank risk.This was achieved through examining which capital ratio can  improve the prediction accuracy of bank risk, in one of the most resilient banking  settings in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The analysis is  performed on a sample of 16 banks (including four state-owned and 12 non-state- owned) for the period 2010-2019 in Egypt.These banks are registered at the Central  Bank of Egypt (CBE). Bank risk is regressed on the three types of capital ratios and  a set of control variables.There are three proxies of capital ratios used. First, the  CCB is based on regulatory capital and risk-weighted assets (RWA). Second, the RLEV is based on regulatory capital and it is a non-risk-based capital ratio.Third,  the FLEV is based on fair values for financial instruments and does not rely on either  regulatory capital or RWA. In addition to that, two alternative proxies of bank risk  are employed. First, regulatory-based measures of bank risk; namely: RWA is used  in their calculations.They comprise earnings volatility (main test) and RWA density ratio (robustness checks). Second, accounting-based measures of bank risk; including assets risk and credit risk, where credit risk is used to confirm the obtained results
