Central Bank Supervision and Regulatory Frameworks: A Comprehensive Training Course
Introduction
Central bank supervision and the regulatory frameworks it operates within are the first line of defense against financial instability. This training course is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the principles, tools, and practices of effective bank supervision. Participants will gain a deep understanding of how central banks and other regulatory bodies monitor the safety and soundness of individual financial institutions, ensuring that they operate in a manner that protects depositors, maintains market integrity, and contributes to the overall stability of the financial system.
The program also focuses on the crucial link between microprudential supervision and macroprudential policy, exploring how the oversight of individual banks fits into a broader framework for mitigating systemic risk. We will examine the role of international standards, such as the Basel Accords, and the challenges of supervising an increasingly complex and interconnected financial system. By combining theoretical foundations with practical case studies, this course will equip policymakers and supervisors with the skills necessary to navigate a dynamic regulatory landscape and contribute to a resilient financial sector.
