Observations

Last month, the Financial Stability Board (FSB) announced a strategic review of its crisis preparedness activities, aimed at strengthening the global framework for managing financial institution failures and sectoral disruptions.

The review will assess all stages of a crisis, from early intervention through resolution to post-stabilisation restructuring, and examine gaps exposed by periods of financial turmoil since the FSB’s formation in 2009. It will also reinforce the Key Attributes of Effective Resolution Regimes as the international standard for resolution.

Andrea Enria, past-Chair of the Supervisory Board at the European Central Bank, has been appointed to lead the review. “The ability to manage crises effectively,” Enria said, “is not just a technical requirement but a cornerstone of global financial stability.”
