22.SAMA may require higher minimum capital ratios for an individual DTFC based on, but not limited to the following criteria, if:
 
 i.a DTFC has losses resulting in a capital deficiency;
 ii.a DTFC has significant exposure to risk;
 iii.a DTFC has a high, or particularly severe, volume of poor asset quality;
 iv.a DTFC is growing rapidly without adequate capitalization and risk management system among other resource needs as may be determined by SAMA; or
 v.there is a likelihood a DTFC may be adversely affected by the activities or conditions of its holding company (where DTFC is wholly owned by another institution).
