Program Description

This program is designed to enhance financial supervisors’ understanding of the practice of cross-sector and cross-border supervision for effective oversight of conglomerate groups. It is more complicated to supervise a conglomerate group whose total risk is not a simple addition of the risks of individual entities. The program goes beyond theoretical concepts and provides practical approaches in conglomerate group supervision, supervisory intervention, and crisis coordination.

Participants will learn through group activities and case studies how to assess and supervise conglomerate group risks such as contagion and concentration risks, as well as management complexity. Participants will also learn the considerations for supervisory colleges and the communication skills in home-host crisis coordination for a conglomerate group, and the best practices for supervising conglomerate groups that have expanded beyond national borders.

For any questions, please contact the program coordinator, Priscilla Mensah: pmensah@torontocentre.org
