Published back in 2021, this interesting document includes an assessment of the Fundamental Review of the Trading Book (FRTB-BaselIII) by measuring the capital requirement impact on a stylized financial portfolio. The paper shows the order of magnitude of the increase in capital requirements across the two regulations and the two possible approaches: the standard approach and the internal model approach. The components of the expected increase implied by the FRTB are further disentangled. The most interesting result emerges for the internal model approach, whereby the increase in the capital charge is attributable not only to the change in the risk measure and the inclusion of longer liquidity horizons, but most importantly to the dampening of the diversification benefit. #BaselIII #IMA #SA #Marketrisk #capitaladequacy #capitalassessment #riskmanagement #riskmeasurement #GRC #financialportfolioimpact #solvency #modeling

#EBRD has published its Capital Adequacy Policy underpinning its Capital Adequacy Framework, being a vital cornerstone for the Bank's financial sustainability and strength and therefore supporting its mission across all its regions. https://lnkd.in/eahHy_tn The publication aligns with the recommendations put forth by the G20-sponsored Independent Review of Capital Adequacy Frameworks (the CAF Review) and follows the guidance provided by the CAF Review Expert Panel. By adhering to these standards, the EBRD aims to enhance comparability, transparency, and benchmarking practices among Multilateral Development Banks (MDBs). Today’s publication specifically supports the objectives of recommendation five of the CAF Review which states: ‘More accessible and comparable data and analysis, as well as regular capital reviews, will support shareholders, rating agencies and market participants in their assessment of MDB strength and demystify their financial model...’ The document’s disclosure complements other transparency-enhancing initiatives undertaken earlier this year, including the EBRD’s publication of the Callable capital review in April and the Default and recovery rate analysis in May. Together, these steps further the EBRD's commitment to implementing best practices in capital adequacy management.

🌍 Two key papers from the NGFS on nature-related financial risks! 🌍 The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) has just released its final Conceptual Framework for Nature-Related Financial Risks and Nature-related Litigation: Emerging Trends and Lessons Learned from Climate-related Litigation. The Comprehensive Framework report covers the identification of direct and indirect nature-related financial risks, the importance of scenario analysis, and practical guidance for central banks, supervisors, and market participants to enhance financial stability while promoting sustainable practices. The Nature-related Litigation report covers the identification of legal risks, case studies on litigation impacts, and strategic recommendations for risk management and mitigation. #NGFS #nature #biodiversity #sustainability #finance #esgregulation #esg
