Program Description
More intense and effective supervision remains a core element on the supervisory and regulatory agenda. It allows supervisory authorities to promote best practices, and identify and address risks before they become serious problems at financial institutions. Keeping financial institutions safe and sound hinges on good supervision. The bank failures of March 2023 showed that there was room for improvement in supervisory practices in many areas.
This cross-sectoral program examines risk monitoring, stress testing, and business model analysis. It also focuses on supervisory approaches, techniques, tools, and (use of) corrective and sanctioning powers, and the need to address unclear mandates, inadequate powers, and lack of independence and resources. The work ahead on more effective supervision will focus on drivers of supervisory empowerment and the measurement of supervisory effectiveness.
