Explanation:

As the regulator of banks in Australia, the RBA (Reserve Bank of Australia) has an obligation to initiate a trigger event when it considers that capital trigger should be initiated as part of its activities in regulating banks' regulatory capital.  A capital trigger is an event when there is an exchange of equity to cash from an investor or group of investors.  It can also happen if a hybrid capital is to be liquidated.
