STI Webinar on Unwinding COVID-19 Policy Interventions for Banking Systems

 

Ms Piyabha Kongsamut, Senior Economist, Monetary and Capital Markets Department
Mr Dermot Monaghan, Senior Financial Sector Expert, Monetary and Capital Markets Department
Mr Luc Riedweg, Senior Financial Sector Expert, Monetary and Capital Markets Department

Target Audience

Senior banking authorities including for regulation, supervision, and resolution.

Webinar Description

This webinar will discuss guidance and broad principles for banking authorities on managing the exit from regulatory and supervisory measures already taken, including borrower support and bank capital and liquidity measures, as well as for prioritizing supervisory tasks during the exit process. It will address the tradeoffs entailed in unwinding decisions and steps that authorities should take when exit appears challenging and banks’ asset quality is likely to deteriorate sharply, including situations that might evolve into system-wide banking sector stress. It will advocate for quantitative analysis, including stress testing, to assess potential debtor and banking system vulnerabilities and to inform the preparation of contingency planning for bank resolution, including at the system level, as part of holistic unwinding strategies.
