Solution

The correct option is C Both 1 and 2
Total Capital of banks includes Tier 1 and Tier 2 capital.​

Tier 1 includes Core capital that is paid up capital, disclosed reserves, ​ reserves arising as a result of sale proceeds etc.

Tier 2 includes Subordinate capital that is debt capital instruments, ​ revalued reserves, long term unsecured loans etc.

Tier 2 capital is considered less reliable than Tier 1 capital because​ it is more difficult to accurately calculate and to liquidate.​
