FMA Panel Discussions: Systemic Risk Regulation
Managing systemic risk is viewed by many as the key to preventing future financial crises, but what it is and how it is best dealt with is not well understood. All the panelists have long and distinguished records on topics and policy issues concerning the macroeconomic importance of large, systemically-important banking organizations. Panelists will advance their views on the definitions of systemic risks, on how lessening such risks will lower the probability of a future crisis, and on the practical questions of what policies could be implemented given the recently passed financial legislation.
