This question is very unclear. There is no limitation on anybody for investments into the "capital markets" and you should understand that the "Capital Market" is not a singular thing, it's a description for a whole bunch of markets that are used by Corporations and Governments to raise funds by making long term loans.
Banks lend in Capital Markets, but generally firms will attempt to raise money through Stocks or Corporate paper instead because the interest is lower to do so.


Edit: Banks can lend however much they want. They are required by the Federal Reserve to keep a reserve supply of cash for every day banking needs but so long as they are in the positive side of accounting they can loan however much they have.
